Hi,

I want to clarify this because I've bought WD_BLACK P50 Game Drive SSD, and now I wonder if my laptop (RZ09-0421x) will handle it on its full speed.

1. I found this question, and it seems it was about 2021 version of the laptop, because I open the following link from the answer and found the specs for 2021. It says:


2. Furthermore, I found the specs for 2022 version (which I have currently): and it says this:


Also, I found this link with fancy way of reading specs which is also don't clarify the situation with ports and claimed this:




So, will my new WD SSD work on its full speed (USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 support needed) with my laptop?

Try hwinfo64. Look under 'Bus' then find your USB 3.? xHCI Controller. Or, find the WD SSD device and see what speeds it is operating at.

Thank you. With hwinfo64 I was able to identify my (top version of Razer Blade 15 family of 2022) laptop has USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 not 2x2. Will see how WD_BLACK P50 Game Drive SSD will run on it since the drive has backward compatibility.

So, WD_BLACK P50 Game Drive SSD runs as it should on such port - on a half speed (10Gbps).
Performance test (~1Mb/s = ~10Gbps):
