Back Up Your Whole Life With the Best External Hard Drives

This is a webpage displaying information about external hard drives, specifically solid-state drives (SSDs) and traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). Here's an excerpt from the text:

**Western Digital WD Black SSD Gen4**

The Samsung 990 PRO SSD NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen4 achieved speeds of 7,458 MB/s reads in my testing, more or less matching the claimed 7,450 MBs / 6,900 MBs read/write speeds.

* **Speed**: Up to 5,677 MB/s read
* **Capacity**: Available up to 8-TB capacity
* **Price**: Starting at $273
 
I'm kinda curious about this new WD Black SSD Gen4 - it's like, super fast for its price ๐Ÿ’ธ. I mean, 7,458 MB/s reads is insane! You can get some heavy files transferred in no time ๐Ÿ“. But what really caught my eye is the capacity - 8 TB? That's huge! Can you imagine storing all your games, videos, and files on one drive? ๐Ÿ˜ฒ It's also interesting to see that it starts at $273, which I think is pretty reasonable considering its specs ๐Ÿ’ช. Overall, I'd say this SSD is a solid choice for anyone looking for a reliable and speedy storage solution ๐Ÿ™Œ
 
omg I just got my hands on the WD Black SSD Gen4 and let me tell you it's a beast! I was skeptical about spending so much money ($273 is no joke) but trust me it's worth every penny. The speed is insane, I'm talking seamless gaming and video editing experiences. 5,677 MB/s read is crazy fast! And the capacity? 8-TB?! that's like, a whole lifetime of files ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ’ป
 
I'm so over these new SSDs coming out every year. Like, I get it, they're faster and all that. But have you seen the prices? That WD Black one's like $273 for an 8TB drive? I mean, my old HDD was way cheaper than that... ๐Ÿคฏ. And what's with the speed specs though? Is anyone actually gonna use 5.7GB/s read speed in real life? I'm still getting decent performance out of my trusty ol' 2-year-old SSD at a fraction of that price ๐Ÿ˜‚. Still, gotta give it to Samsung for pushing the limits and making these drives more efficient... ๐Ÿ’ป
 
man i just got my hands on the western digital wd black ssd gen4 and i gotta say its a beast ๐Ÿคฏ i mean the samsung 990 pro is already crazy fast but this wd black is close second, the speeds are insane like i'm talking real world usage stuff not just benchmarking or something. and the price point is pretty reasonable too, $273 for an 8TB drive thats a steal in my opinion. its not as flashy as some of the other newer tech out there but its solid, you know?
 
omg i just saw this new wd black ssd gen4 and i'm DYING to try it out ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ’ป the samsung 990 pro is looking fierce with those crazy read speeds ๐Ÿš€ 7,458 mb/s? that's insane! and 8tb of storage is exactly what i need for all my projects and files ๐Ÿ‘ plus it's only $273 which is pretty reasonable considering the speed and capacity ๐Ÿค‘ i've been using traditional hdds up until now but this ssd gen4 thingy sounds like a total game changer ๐Ÿ’ฅ
 
I'm so over how hyped people are about these new SSDs. Like, who really needs that kind of speed? I mean, my old HDD is still running just fine and it's like, a fraction of the cost. And have you seen the prices for these new SSDs? It's like they're charging us per megabyte! The Western Digital WD Black one starts at $273... yeah right, I'll stick with my trusty old external HDD that's got more storage space than I know what to do with ๐Ÿค‘.
 
I'm not sure if the price point of $273 is that steep for an SSD this powerful ๐Ÿค‘. I mean, you're getting 5,677 MB/s reads, which is crazy fast... but it's not like you can exactly use that speed in real life unless you're doing some super niche stuff.

I'm also a bit skeptical about the claimed speeds - 7,450/6,900 MBs / 4 is pretty aggressive ๐Ÿค”. How reliable are those results? Are they from some kinda controlled lab test or just someone messing around with their rig?

Still, 8-TB capacity is pretty insane for an SSD and that price point isn't too bad considering the market right now ๐Ÿ’ธ.
 
Honestly I think we're over the moon with these SSD speeds and prices. Like, who needs that much storage space for their gaming collection or whatever? It's just gonna be a big ol' bank account drain if you ask me. And $273 is a pretty penny too ๐Ÿค‘. Plus have you seen those hard drive cables? They're like super long and take up so much space. Can't we just get rid of 'em altogether? We're living in the future, folks!
 
omg i'm so excited about these new SSDs ๐Ÿคฉ they're like, so fast! i mean 5k mb/s read is insane. and the capacity is crazy too, 8TB? that's like, a whole lifetime of music and vids for me ๐Ÿ’ป but the price is a bit steep, starting at $273 is like, half my monthly rent ๐Ÿคฏ still, it's worth it if you need that kind of speed and space. i'm thinking about getting one for my gaming pc, it'll be a game changer (no pun intended) ๐Ÿ’ฅ
 
I've been considering upgrading my computer's storage for ages... I mean, who needs a bunch of old files taking up space on an outdated hard drive? ๐Ÿ’ป SSDs seem like a no-brainer now - the Samsung 990 PRO is crazy fast! 7,458 MB/s reads is insane. I'm not sure if that's worth the extra cash though, I've got some big files stored away that might take forever to copy over. Still, it's nice to know I can get up to 8TB of storage space if I need it. And $273 for a decent drive? Not bad at all... I think I'll have to consider dipping my toes into the SSD world soon. ๐Ÿ’ธ
 
SSDs are totally overrated ๐Ÿ™„. I mean, who needs that much speed? My old HDD is still holding up just fine and it's like, a thousand bucks cheaper than these fancy SSDs. And what's the point of having 8-TB capacity anyway? I don't think anyone has that many files on their computer... plus, it's just gonna take forever to fill it up ๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธ. And have you seen the price tag for this WD Black thing? That's like, crazy money ๐Ÿ’ธ. Give me a good old-fashioned HDD any day of the week ๐Ÿ˜Š.
 
omg I'm so surprised by these SSD prices! ๐Ÿคฏ I know some of you are still using traditional HDDs and I get it, they're cheap but come on, your files will be transferred in like 10 seconds or something with an SSD lol. I recently got the WD Black SSD Gen4 and I'm so happy with it, my gaming load times are way faster now ๐ŸŽฎ๐Ÿ’ป
 
I'm so sick of these "gigabyte" labels on storage drives ๐Ÿคฏ... like who actually measures their hard drive in gigabytes? It's always MB/s this, and KB/s that... can't they just give us raw speeds for once? And what's up with the weird naming conventions? WD Black SSD Gen4 is basically just a marketing name, right? Can't we just call it something simple like "fast SSD" or something? ๐Ÿ˜’
 
I just got my hands on the new WD Black SSD Gen4 and it's a beast ๐Ÿ’ป! I mean, who needs that much speed? But seriously, it's perfect for gamers and content creators. The price is pretty steep though - $273 for 8TB is a lot to swallow ๐Ÿค‘. But if you're serious about your workflow or gaming setup, it might be worth the investment. I've heard some other brands are giving Samsung a run for their money too, but I haven't tried any of those yet... still waiting to see how they stack up against the WD Black ๐Ÿ’ธ
 
๐Ÿค” you know what's crazy about these new SSD drives? they're like the high school grad of storage tech - all fast and shiny on paper, but still gotta prove themselves in real life ๐Ÿ’ช. take western digital wd black ssd gen4 for example, it's got some sick specs, no doubt about that ๐Ÿคฉ 5,677 mb/s read speed is straight fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ! but what really matters is how well it performs in everyday use... does it deliver on those promised speeds? only time (and your wallet) will tell ๐Ÿ’ธ
 
I mean... SSDs are defo the way forward ๐Ÿค”. Like, who needs traditional hard disk drives when you can get insane speeds with these Samsung SSDs? The 990 PRO is a beast, hitting those claimed speeds in testing ๐Ÿ’ป. But, on the other hand... $273 is still pretty steep for me ๐Ÿ˜. I mean, I've seen cheaper HDDs that are way slower than this SSD. And, what's up with the capacity limit of 8TB? That's so limiting ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ. Can't we just get an 8TB SSD and be done with it? ๐Ÿค‘
 
man... these ssds are straight fire ๐Ÿš€! I just got my hands on the WD Black SSD Gen4 and it's like butter for my computer, no lag whatsoever. And those speeds? insane! like, what even is 7,458 MB/s reads? that's faster than a beskar armor-clad samurai on horseback ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ’ฅ. and 8-TB capacity? that's like, my entire movie collection right there ๐Ÿฟ๐ŸŽฅ. and the price? $273? that's still pretty steep, but i'd rather have a smooth gaming experience over a cheap one any day ๐Ÿ’ป. solid state drives are the future, imo ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ’ธ
 
I mean what's the point of all these fancy SSDs? I got my old hard drive from back in the day and it still works just fine for me! Sure, it's slow, but I don't need to move a million files around every day like those techies do. My WD Blue 1TB was like $50 when it came out and I thought that was expensive at the time. Now they're asking $273 for an 8TB SSD? Ridiculous! ๐Ÿคฃ

And what's with all these different types of storage anymore? M.2 PCIe Gen4, NVMe... just call it a hard drive and be done with it! ๐Ÿ˜‚ I remember when you had to have like 5 separate devices just to store your stuff: CD player, floppy disk drive, external hard drive, USB stick... now you can do everything on one little chip thingy! Not that I'm complaining or anything. ๐Ÿ™ƒ
