WD PC SN7100S SDFPMSL-512G-1101

SN7100S SDFPMSL-512G-1101

The Western Digital (SanDisk) SN7100S SDFPMSL-512G-1101 is a 512 GB lower mid-range PCIe 4 x4 SSD. While the spec sheet claims the SN7100S series only comes in M.2 2230 and M.2 2280 flavours, the drive we tested in April 2025 was in fact an M.2 2242 size SSD.

It appears this storage solution has no DRAM cache. SN7100S SSDs are offered in the following capacities: 256 GB, 512 GB, 1024 GB, 2048 GB.

Performance

With 5.16 GB/s and 2.77 GB/s, AS SSD does not confirm the claimed read and write rates of 6.8 GB/s and 5.8 GB/s, respectively. The positive thing is, the SDFPMSL-512G-1101 we tested exhibited zero throttling.

Dell XPS 14 Core Ultra 7 355 review: Still great, but not nearly as special

Dell XPS 14 Core Ultra 7 355 review: Still great, but not nearly as special

Users who don't need the much-improved graphics horsepower of the Core Ultra X7 will find the less expensive Core Ultra 7 option much more attractive especially if upgrading from an older XPS 13 or XPS 14 model.

Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 16ILL10 review: Minor updates in all the right places

The Yoga 7 2-in-1 16ILL10 may look like just a simple processor update over last year's Yoga 7 2-in-1 16IML9, but it actually carries several other changes that really improve the usability of the 16-inch convertible.

Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 14AKP10 laptop review: Zen 5 takes a shot at Intel

The Yoga 7 2-in-1 from Lenovo is not only—as its name suggests—an extremely versatile laptop, but is also available in various configurations. We grabbed a model with the previously untested Ryzen AI 5 340 and compared its performance with its siblings.

Strong AMD Zen5 CPU with pen and OLED for a low price: Lenovo IdeaPad 5 2-in-1 14AKP10 laptop review

A thousand US dollars are an important psychological mark for buyers. Lenovo's IdeaPad 5 2-in-1 14AKP10 is below it. For this comparably low amount of money, you get great performance, an OLED screen and a comfortable keyboard in a convertible 2-in-1 with a pen.
