Based on Western Digital 96-layer 3D NAND technology, the Western Digital PC SA530 SATA SSD delivers leading-edge performance, high capacity, and enhanced endurance. In capacities of up to 1TB, the PC SA530 3D NAND SATA SSD excels while expending less power than our previous generations of SATA SSDs. The PC SA530 3D NAND SATA SSD is optimized for the demanding power management requirements of ultra-thin and small form factor products.

The Western Digital PC SA530 combines Western Digital’s state-of-the-art 96-layer 3D NAND technology with our proven SSD platform. It also incorporates nCache™ 2.0, a tiered caching technology designed to improve responsiveness for corporate and consumer workloads. nCache 2.0 uses a combination of both SLC (single level cell) and TLC flash blocks to improve endurance, increase efficiency, and boost performance. Writing data first to the SLC cache reduces write amplification on the TLC blocks.
