Give the gift of storage to the digital creators in your life this holiday

Whether the creative in your life is a photographer, a digital illustrator, or a videographer, there’s a likelihood that they are frequently required to juggle multiple media files. As technology improves and allows for higher resolutions in digital works, those media files balloon up in size, requiring more and more storage. This holiday season, high-capacity storage is the gift that keeps on giving to the creatives in your life.

The WD Blue®  SN580 NVMe™  SSD from Western Digital offers lightning-fast capabilities for managing applications as well as editing and publishing content using PCIe® Gen 4.0 speeds and Western Digital’s nCache™ 4.0 technology. The 1 TB* and 2 TB* models of the SN580 feature speeds up to 4,150 MB/s**, allowing your favorite creative to copy folders and store large projects in a snap. Upgrading to a PCIe Gen 4.0 drive is easy, and the drive is backward compatible with all PCIe 3.0 platforms. 

Working with 4K videos, high-resolution digital paintings, or batch-editing photos can be taxing, but a powerful SSD can improve your productivity and workflow by doing the heavy lifting for you. That kind of functionality often comes at a cost when it comes to power draw, however. The WD Blue SN580 NVMe SSD from Western Digital is designed for creative workflows across a variety of devices. The low-power design of the WD Blue SN580 NVMe SSD makes it an excellent choice for laptops that require a slim m.2 2280 form-factor SSD. With a low-power draw, the WD Blue SN580 NVMe SSD ensures that the coveted flow state remains uninterrupted when working or creating on a laptop. No more stopping mid-editing session to hunt down a power outlet. 

Creative needs vary, so Western Digital offers 4 variations of the WD Blue SN580 NVMe SSD to meet your loved one’s requirements without taking a bite out of your gift-giving budget. The 250 GB* and 500 GB* models are perfect for getting all the benefits of a 4th generation NVMe SSD like speed and durability at affordable price points. While not as big as their 1 TB* and 2 TB* brethren, they’re still plenty capable of managing music files, storing photographs, and creating digital illustrations or paintings. The 1 TB* and 2 TB* models of the SN580 are among the most affordable high-capacity storage solutions and can greatly improve productivity with their enhanced read and write speeds.

The digital space grows daily with new creators, whether it be live-streaming, digital artistry, or video production or even something entirely new. Having storage that is secure, reliable, and capable of meeting the demands of the creative workflow is invaluable. If you’re shopping for a creative individual this holiday, you can not go wrong with storage solutions from Western Digital’s WD Blue NVMe SSD family.
