Western Digital Blue 3D NAND vs Intel SSD Series 5 (2012)
The Western Digital Blue 3D NAND M.2 1TB was loved by reviewers at AnandTech, a highly trusted source that performs reliable in-depth testing. It did great in its "Best SSDs: May 2021 - Mainstream 2.5" SATA" roundup where it was named its "Ranked 1 out of 1", which, in itself, makes it a product worth considering.
Moving on to the Intel SSD 520 240GB: it was unable to reach the very top of any roundups from sources that conduct reliable and unbiased testing. Nonetheless, it still managed to impress reviewers from a number of such sites, like TechSpot, CNET, hardwarezone.com.sg, Techradar, and Expert Reviews, enough for them to include them on those lists.
We couldn't find any sources that tested both of these Internal Hard Drives, so we only analyzed how they performed in reviews from different sites.
We first examined which sources rated each of these best and found that the Western Digital Blue 3D NAND M.2 1TB got its highest, 8, rating from PCmag, while the Intel SSD 520 240GB earned its best, 8.5, score from TechSpot.
