    Perfect fit right out of the box for my PlayStation 5. Added 1 TB in just a few minutes. Easy to install with instructions on the PS website or YouTube. I also added an external Seagate 4TB (see link below) to move all of my PS4 games to, ensuring plenty of memory for all the PS5 apps and games of the future. https://click.emailinfo2.bestbuy.com/?qs=2e6da933d3328f338fba5e869ba2432208289dabffc3126deefe5544b6f1d114c3767406ee88a4b3ee3a6e4d8a43bf4affddf22f9589f74b9941fa1b82eb48e4

    This drive worked very well in our Ps5. It’s faster than the drive that ships with the ps5. Moved 11gb of data in a matter of seconds. It’s a little pricey. Would like to get the 2TB version in the future.

    Purchased this for my PS5 now that you can utilize the expansion slot. I had initially purchase the Samsung 980 Pro but realized you cannot reach true speeds unless updating firmware, but I am a Mac user so that served me no purpose. This FireCuda however, knocked it out the park with its speeds and copying over games to it from the internal PS5 drive to free up space is amazing. It is very fast straight out the box and easy to install.

    To install this item is so easy. Once you've taken the ps5 cover off it takes less than 5 mins. It's so easy it's not even funny. Installed it really quick. Set up was quick and now I'm running 1 TB on my son's ps5. I only needed 1 TB for him since he doesn't play that many games. Once I get another ps5 (a special edition I hope) I will definitely get the one with the most TB. I would definitely buy this product again.

    I bought this to upgrade my PS5 disc storage. Installation was quick, the system formatted it quickly. I transferred the games from the internal storage to this drive, I haven't noticed a difference in load times (I'm not the most tech savvy person). It was nice to not have to worry about buying a separate heat sink as this one has it installed already, so it is just plug-and-play.
