Western Digital wants to give your PC whiplash with new SN770 NVME

Computer gaming has come a long way since I was a kid with my 8086 processor and 640K of RAM. Peripherals have come and gone many times over. At one time, Soundblasters ruled the Earth, but now sound reproduction is mostly done in system on the motherboard or graphics card. The world of the PCs is, and always has been, one of rapid change. In the case of the latest Western Digital NVME offerings, rapid is the operative word.

While computers have evolved, storage has as well, but at a slower pace. If you had told me 20 years ago that the biggest improvement on my PC wouldn’t be from NVIDIA or AMD, but from the speed of hard drives, I don’t think I would have believed you. Yet, here we are.
