WD BLACK: Performance Drives, Purpose-Built for Gaming

The technical sophistication of gaming is expanding faster than ever before. Gaming in 4K and 8K, HDR, augmented and virtual reality, or playing on secondary screens. Popular game titles are growing in file size – reaching over 100GB. PCs, consoles, and gaming notebooks have limited storage, typically ranging from 500GB to 1TB.

As a result, gamers are left feeling the pain, not only with the irritating decision of deciding which old games to delete in order to make room for new favorites but also having to endure slow load times & downloads. Western Digital’s WD_BLACK™ gaming product line enables the gaming world to solve these challenges.


" We constantly hear from gamers about how the performance and capacity limitations of their current systems challenge the quality of their gaming experiences. We are helping make room for the latest releases, whether a gamer has been playing for years or is just starting out and looking for a high-performance edge. – Susan Park, VP of Product Management, Content Solutions"



"WD_BLACK is the latest step in our decades-long commitment to providing gamers with fast, reliable storage products specifically built to help them get more out of the gaming experience. Designed for both console and PC gamers, WD_BLACK products give them the ability to not only build libraries of their favorite games but also store their winning gameplay, as well. – David Ellis, VP of Product Marketing, Content Solutions"
