WDS100T5G0A-00CPT0 WD Green 1TB SATA 2.5" Consumer SSD

High-Performance 2.5in SATA SSD for efficient boot and read-centric tiers with the WDS100T5G0A-00CPT0

The WDS100T5G0A-00CPT0 is a 1TB 2.5in internal SATA SSD designed for entry server boot volumes and cost-sensitive flash tiers where predictable read access is the priority. In SATA-based platforms, it integrates cleanly behind standard AHCI controllers and backplanes, enabling consistent OS and application stack deployment without consuming PCIe lanes needed for GPUs, NICs, or NVMe storage in compute nodes.

Built on 3D TLC NAND with a DRAM-less controller, the WDS100T5G0A-00CPT0 targets read-optimised behaviour and low power draw rather than high sustained write caching. The SATA 6Gb/s interface aligns with legacy and mixed-generation server architectures, supporting simple capacity tiering in small servers and NAS appliances. With sequential read performance up to 545 MB/s and a vendor-rated 2.0M hours MTBF/MTTF, the WDS100T5G0A-00CPT0 is well suited for lightweight OS images, hypervisor boot, and general read-heavy repositories where hardware encryption is not a requirement.

Why Choose the WDS100T5G0A-00CPT0?

The WDS100T5G0A-00CPT0 delivers a pragmatic density-to-cost profile for SATA-centric deployments, enabling consistent boot and read-tier performance while preserving PCIe expansion headroom for accelerators and high-speed networking. For non-mission-critical tiers, the WDS100T5G0A-00CPT0 simplifies standardisation across fleets by using a ubiquitous 2.5in form factor and a mature SATA integration path.

WD engineers the WD Green series with a focus on dependable client-class flash behaviour, power efficiency, and broad platform compatibility, supporting modern data centre operational practices where lifecycle management and consistent provisioning matter more than peak write endurance.

Key Applications:

• Entry server boot drives
• Hypervisor and lightweight OS images
• Read-heavy file shares and repositories
• Low-cost SATA flash tiering in small servers/NAS
