About This Product
The WD Blue 8TB HDD is a high-capacity 3.5-inch SATA drive suitable for bulk storage. Its 5640 RPM spindle speed and 256MB cache provide adequate performance for archival, media storage, or less frequently accessed data. While slower than 7200 RPM drives, it offers a cost-effective solution for large storage needs compared to SSDs in its price range.
Verdict
“Buy for affordable, high-capacity bulk storage of non-critical data.”
Performance, endurance, NAND architecture, thermals, and compatibility.
