does it work with ps5? null

Yes, this will work with PS5. You should install an aftermarket heatsink as recommended by Sony, but it is compatible.

I have not personally tested with the ps5 but it does meet the general requirements for a ssd to be usable in the ps5. I believe that it also has confirmation of support for ps5 on the product page.

Yes buy get one that comes with a heat sink

Absolutely! I've had this drive installed for about a month and a half so far, and it's been working flawlessly.

Hi, Please be informed “Based on Sony’s published requirements, we can confirm our WD_BLACK SN850 NVMe SSD with Heatsink (500GB-2TB) meets the stated requirements to expand console storage on the PlayStation 5 for those with access to the PlayStation 5 Beta software. Compatibility testing is in progress.” We will upgrade that to yes it works once we are able to complete compatibility testing. It is important to not push non-heatsink since Sony specified heatsink version.

No, I just purchased this and it did not have a heatsink.
