    Initially I was looking at either the Samsung 980 Pro or the Western Digital SN850 as my expansion storage for ps5, but then I stumbled across this drive. I’ve used ADATA SSDs in the past with mixed results, but after seeing the specs and the fact it came with a heat sink that fit within Sony’s dimensions, for the price ($145 at the time of purchase) I had to give it a chance. Well long story short is that this is the best value ps5 expansion option. Period. Unlike many drives out there, including some of ADATA’s own drives, you get access to the full 1TB drive space. Compare this to Ps5’s internal 825GB drive that only affords you 667GB of usable storage (even less after reserved space for essential system files). Or the 2TB SX8200 Pro I’m using in my own pc at the moment which is in reality only 1.82TB. This means more storage for your money. After a very quick 2 minute installation, I booted my ps5 up and formatted the SSD. Rated speed was about 6200MB/s which isn’t maxing out PCIe gen 4, but exceeds the 5500MB/s Sony requirement. No issues with temperatures thanks to the included heat sink, which makes this thing an even better value than it’s competition. I was worried 1TB wouldn’t be enough for my needs but thanks to Sony’s proprietary file compression, I was able to install my entire PS Plus library with half the drive to spare still. 2TB would’ve been absolutely overkill for my needs. All in all, if you find this drive for $150 or less you should definitely pick it up.

    I was worried that I’m not the biggest tech person and it would be hard to install. It took me about four minutes to take apart the PlayStation five covers and in screw this in. It took about two minutes to establish on the PlayStation five and I was able to move all of my files onto it very quickly

    So far so good no complaints comes with heat sink pad it’s not the best but a good heat sink would recommend buying a heatsink just in case for long term use get the most out of your buck but for the price of this M2 is excellent I got it on sale for 89.99

    Working as intended 6100 speed at this price really no reason to spend 80-100 extra for a WD or 980 especially for the PS5.

    Read speed is awesome almost as advertised. 7342 Read / 6318 Write is a hair disappointed but still fast. Nice that it come with a PS5 heat sink but I'm not using since my mobo has one. Temperature is 2C hotter than Sabrent Rocket 4 Gen but I'm sure this won't affect much.

    This thing is a beast! Blazing fast and stays cool. Trades punches with the Samsung 980 Pro and even beats it! Just ran a bench on it and was blown away - stays cool under heavy load without throttling. Highly recommended.

    Hope this don’t happen to you. I got this drive delivered and when i opened it, it already had the a heat sink attached plus it came with an extra heat sink.... which it should NOT according to all the videos I have seen on the SSD. Also the box says the heat sink requires assembly.... and last but not least, the drive don’t work. My PlayStation says it can’t use the drive and only gives the option to turn off.... So Disappointed. I’m sure it’s a manufacturer error and not the Store but still so disappointed.

    Installation was easy and fast. The PS5 recognized and formatted the drive with no issues. Total available space is just over 1tb. Specs state speeds up to 7400 but the PS5 shows a top speed of 5750. There have been no issues with using the drive and it's been great for adding all of our backwards compatible games to the library. For the price, it seems like a great drive, but don't expect to see the rated speeds in your PS5.

    I was thinking about getting either the Western Digital or Samsung SSD for my PS5. I’m glad I waited and discovered the XPG Gammix S70. It’s cheaper (even with the included heat sink) and speeds are even better than the Samsung model. Installation was super easy. Nice to finally have some additional storage for my PS5.

    Phenomenal for the price point. Does the job just right for the ps5. Speedy and extra space both neccessary for the ps5. Will definitely not regret buying again in the future if need be. Also make sure you carefully read the instructions for this, I almost messed up the heatsink by not lining it up properly. So look up youtube vids and read the instructions.

    Excellent price for 1 terabyte of fast storage, and works great with my PS5. Got it on sale for $140 and once installed in confirmed speeds in excess of those required for PS5. Installed several current gen and last gen games and all have performed flawlessly. Just used included heat sink (very thin) and so far it seems to work great.

    Bought for Playstation 5. Great item for the price. Works flawlessly and easy to install. Was a little confused at first on how to install the heat plate but there is a lot of online guides on how to use apply the plate and install it on the Playstation 5. I have accessed to the whole Terabyte too so awesome item.
