You can see a photo of the P40 at the front. It has that all-black color scheme, with orange highlights and some small square pattern that looks like dots for added texture. The WD Black P40’s packaging is similar to other WD Black products from the company.

WD Black P40 Portable Gaming SSD is available on here. WD Black P40 Specificationsįor the latest pricing and availability: (#ad) It’s smaller, cheaper, and has RGB lighting. Price-wise, I checked the current retail price, and the P40 is cheaper than the P50.įor example, the 1TB P50 retails for $199.99, while the 1TB P40 retails for $149.99 only. Meanwhile, the P50 is available in 500GB to 4TB capacities. In terms of capacity, the P40 is only available from 500GB to 2TB capacities. The difference is unnoticeable in real-life use. However, the P50 is slightly faster, just a few hundred MB/s faster than the P40. The P40 and P50 use USB 3.2 Gen2x2 interface to achieve the 2,000MB/s transfer speed. Basically, the P40 is smaller in size than the P50, and the former has RGB lighting. So, let’s just briefly compare the difference between the P40 and P50.
However, WD offers a 5-year limited warranty for the P40. I wonder if gamers need that feature, mainly if you only use the drive as a game drive. Unlike most of WD’s SSDs, the P40 doesn’t feature hardware encryption. Otherwise, it will be limited to the interface’s speed-for example, USB 10Gps or older versions of USB ports. It would be best if you had a USB 3.2 Gen2x2 port to maximize the potential of this drive. The WD Black P40 offers transfer speeds of up to 2,000MB/s via the USB 3.2 Gen2x2 port. You can customize the RGB lighting via WD’s software. Nevertheless, it’s a nice feature and an eye-catcher. Nowadays, you can’t seem to consider a product as a “gaming” product without RGB lighting. Since the WD Black P40 is a “gaming” storage device, you can expect some RGB lighting.
Maybe that’s why WD named it “P40” and not “P55” or “P60”. In fact, based on the numbers and reviews of the P50, the P40 is slightly slower than the P50. It’s supposed to be the P50’s successor, but in terms of performance or technicalities, it is not really a successor.
