Does the SSD work with the PlayStation 5? null

Yes it does. These people saying it doesn't work for the PS5 are wrong. Not only does it fit, but it works great in the PS5 and many people have it in theirs. This is like a hybrid between a gen 4 and a gen 5 and it is fully backwards compatible. If these people actually work for Samsung then they need to be fired.

Jacob: The 990 EVO Plus is not recommended for the PS5. The EVO is a Gen 5 and the PS5 does not favor Gen 5. Also, the PS5 includes Gen 4 M.2 bays and Gen 5 SSDs are not backwards compatible with Gen 4 bays. The 990 PRO is most compatible with the PS5. The 990 PRO is designed for tech enthusiasts, hardcore gamers and heavy-workload professionals who want blazing fast speed. - Samsung Memory
