Crucial M.2 SSD (PS5)
Very good product, fast and easy to install. Now I can finally enjoy having multiple games downloaded (currently on 70)

Great except for…
So the only diwnside Im seeing is if I try and transfer a game from my main SSD in ps 5 pro to the crucial internal expansion memory it takes a lot longer than it’s supposed to…but when playing games and reading off of it the times are the same as if it were reading from the regular SSD. Interesting. Much more inexpensive than Western Digital so this is good. 4 TB is plenty but 8 TB would’ve been perfect as my full library of games from PS PLUS over rhe years along with whats available as a PS + premium member demands more rhan 4 TB. Ah well. “First world problems”, as they say. Happy shopping. Love how Best Buy price matches. Got this crucial 4 TB for like 220$. Cant really beat that. Wouod recommend, for sure. Just go read a book or do oushups or something if you have to transfer stuff over : )
