About this product
This is a Western Digital PC SN740 256GB M.2 2230 NVMe SSD, featuring a PCIe 4x4 interface. This internal solid-state drive is compatible with laptops, including devices like the Steam Deck, ASUS ROG, and Dell. It provides a smaller storage capacity from Western Digital's SN740 line, supporting features like dual-drive and hot swap, all within a compact 2230 form factor.
Our take
For those seeking an entry-level NVMe upgrade in a compact size, this 256GB WD PC SN740 M.2 2230 SSD offers a good starting point. The PCIe 4x4 interface ensures modern speeds, which is a significant improvement over SATA SSDs. While 256GB is modest in terms of capacity for primary storage, it's suitable for an operating system drive or for expanding storage in a Steam Deck if you're on a budget. The hot swap feature is a plus for easy installation, but consider if the capacity meets your long-term needs.
