The Blue by Western Digital, is an SSD drive with a capacity of 500GB. The size of 2.5'' makes it ideal for replacing and upgrading hard drives in laptops, as well as an economical choice for desktops. It supports the communication protocol SATA III that offers fast speeds and is compatible with the vast majority of motherboards.
For installation in a desktop computer, you will need a SATA III data cable and an available SATA port on the motherboard. You will also need an available power cable for a SATA device from the power supply. For installation in a laptop, no cables are needed and the SSD simply plugs into the SATA slot.

I have the version with 1TB
Replaced an HDD in a 10-year-old laptop...

We put 2 in one server in mirror RAID configuration and the RAID controller gave us read speeds of 900 MB and write speeds of 200 MB. The write speed was a bit lower than expected. The server is an HP Gen 8 with a CPU of 2x8 cores/16 threads at 1.8 GHz, and 128 GB of HP DDR3 Memory 2Rx4 PC3-10600R. The controller is the HP Smart Array B110i RAID
