Fantom Drives VENOM8 2TB SSD NVMe Gen 4 M.2 2280 for PS5 Storage Expansion, Gaming PC & Laptops - Up to 7400MB/s - 3D NAND TLC 2TB M.2 (VM8X20)

We were super excited to have the extra space! Great packaging and awesome deal!

Got this for my PS5, there are a lot of videos showing how to install a NVMe, thats not a problem. I gave it 4 stars as it comes with multiple different thermal pads and no instructions what so ever about which one to use.

Easy to install & definitely simplified my PS5 usage.

My linux OS exactly send me one S.M.A.R.T. error each day, but I dont know if this is important or not as I have no clue about what error it is, syslog does not contains more more details: This message was generated by the smartd daemon running on: host name: thierrybo-desk DNS domain: [Empty] The following warning/error was logged by the smartd daemon: Device: /dev/nvme1, number of Error Log entries increased from 27 to 28 Device info: FANTOM DRIVES VENOM8, S/N:7B9F072C0D5400009949, FW:EIFM31.4, 1.00 TB For details see hosts SYSLOG. You can also use the smartctl utility for further investigation.

Very easy to setup

Item came in on time, took less than 10 minutes to put in and it’s doing what it supposed to do.

Amazingly great price for a huge 2TB memory stick that out preform most that cost more! The SSD loading speeds are way faster than my PS5 even recommends!

As the title says I bought 2 of these for the PS5. One for me and for a gift. And Im happy to say after running them for a while I have not had any issues what so ever with this brand of M.2. Heck if the PS5 is to be correct this thing is faster then some of the other top end M.2s with the read speed. I have attached a photo showing what I got. 6300 on the read.

I used this for my PS5, along with my heat sink and this is a purchase that I am so glad I made. Added so much space to my console. I have downloaded so many games and barely scratched the surface of the 2TB. If I was to fill it up by some miracle, I probably would buy another one but for now, I am satisfied with this.

Worked in my PS5. Was easy to install and no problems so far.
