    Piece of cake install, and works flawlessly, you can't even tell when it's accessing the external drive or internal. I got the 1TB version but will be upgrading to the 2TB soon!

    What praises haven't been sung about this SSD in a PS5? Still, the fastest on the market, and the heatsink is top quality. More expensive than the sum paid upfront, but the reliability will pay in the end.

    If you have a ps5 this is essential. The price was good plus got 10 back because it went on sale. Install is super easy. The brand is good been seeking seagate hard drives since the dawn of time.

    Heatsink already included fastest speed from what I read. More pricier but I believe it to be future proof. Meaning I won't need to upgrade for a long time

    Picked it up for 169.99 on sale, and it performs as well as you would expect. I slotted this into my PS5 (following Sony's tutorial Youtube video) and it formatted into usable storage in seconds after I turned the PS5 back on. Honestly, most of the 4.0 nVME drives will have pretty much the same real world performance (give or take 0.00000001 seconds), but Seagate's peace of mind 5-year warranty is what sold me. Plus it looks like a cool peice of tech (not that you see it ever, unless you get those see-through side plates and leave the expansion slot cover off).

    This was excellent for my PS5! I kept having to decide which games to move to my external HDD and SSD, but not anymore. It made everything much easier and quicker for me!

    Works flawlessly with the PS5 -- super easy to put in and use! Just as fast and efficient as the built-in storage, too. The only issue is it's pretty expensive.

    Great upgrade. The storage that comes with the ps5 is not much. You’ll need it if you want to have a bunch of ps5 games ready to play.
