WD_BLACK 2TB SN850 NVMe SSD for PS5 Consoles Solid State Drive with Heatsink - Gen4 PCIe, M.2 2280, Up to 7,000 MB/s - WDBBKW0020BBK-WRSN

Great item I highly recommend buying this if you own a ps5 and need lots of storage

Kept an eye on the price for a while and finally dipped down to $160, worth every penny. Partnering directly with Sony to have an actual video tutorial made the install process a quick and easy 5 minutes.

Easy installation and great results

I started out with adding a 1TB SSD shortly after purchasing my PS5. In the 6 months that followed, I have maxed out my internal and m.2 storage. So I bought this one, and the performance is still really good, but my storage space on the m.2 has doubled. I did have to transfer all my games from the old m.2 to the new one, but now I use my old m.2 as a USB-C attached storage, so if I need to make room, now I can offload them to the external USB storage instead and bring them back when I need them, instead of deleting and re-installing. 2TB is still not a lot of storage, but when prices come down on storage, I might consider a bigger one. For now, this is a great value, and with the built-in heat sink, installation was super fast and easy.

This was simple to install and setup on my PlayStation 5. Took about 5 minutes and has been working well with no problems. An easy upgrade if youre looking for more storage space for your console.

Once I finally got my PS5 to recognize that I had added the drive, it worked flawlessly so far for four weeks.

Got it for my ps5 and works great.

It took about 5 minutes to get this installed into my PS5 (including the time to disconnect/reconnect cables and get the drive formatted). The case was pretty easy to remove - once you have it flipped upside down with the power connector on your left, gently press down on the right side corner closest to you/the back of the device, and slide it to the left (also hold the left side corner furthest from you to make sure the cover doesnt go flying). Remove a screw for the SSD slot, move the fitting where needed, and pop it all back together. The PS5 reported the read speed somewhere around 6500 once installed (cant remember if it was 63 something or 66 something, but in that general range), and it gave me the option to install either/both PS4 and PS5 games to the SSD.

Faster than the storage that comes with the PS5, this is perfect for loading and running all of those extra games that can be a struggle to offload to an external drive or just remove when not using. Significantly more space and super fast. Cant complain!

My PS5 was getting crowded with all of my games, but now it can finally breathe with all this extra space. Installation was a breeze, just make sure to be very gentle when inserting it.
