The first Gen5 SSD from SanDisk/Western Digital
SanDisk and its subsidiary brand Western Digital missed the initial wave of PCIe 5.0 SSDs, but then entered the market with a model that immediately took the lead from the Samsung 9100 Pro. It’s one of the few fifth-generation drives that delivers top speeds both on paper and in real-world use, and it doesn’t overheat in seconds, unlike most first‑generation E26 controller solutions.
Modified SM2508 controller
At the heart of the SN8100 is a refined Silicon Motion SM2508 controller, whose details the company has not yet disclosed. It uses eight channels, employs DDR4 memory as an additional buffer, and nearly reaches 15,000 MB/s. The memory consists of proprietary 218‑layer SanDisk TLC NAND chips known for reliability and high endurance, making the drive suitable for any resource‑intensive workloads.
Top-tier results in both synthetic tests and real use
In benchmarks and real tasks, including working with small files, the SN8100 consistently outperforms most competitors. It’s built on modern components, ships with convenient proprietary software, supports TCG/Opal V2.0 encryption, and stands out for low power consumption and moderate thermals. The only significant downside is the fairly high price: only specialized models with massive heatsinks or liquid cooling, like top Corsair solutions, will cost more.
