Causes blue screens
I think that Western Digial's Green series should be avoided. The first drive I received froze my PC several times an hour. LDLC changed it, the second works better but still causes blue screens from time to time.

the product was delivered on time, arrived well in its packaging thank you to the team ldlc as always you have ensured
I replaced a defective Crucial MX300 SDD with a WD green
It's a disaster, I restored the system in several hours and the system boot was slower than with the original hard drive. After installing Western Digital Dashboard and updating the SSD firmware, it works a little better, but it is far from matching the crucial MX300.
