Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the BLACK SN850 1TB Internal Gaming SSD's performance, storage capacity, ease of installation, and user-friendliness, with many praising its compatibility with the PS5. A common concern is the need for a heatsink to manage heat generation, although many users report successful installations with added cooling solutions. The price point is also frequently cited as a positive aspect. While some users experienced longer load times, the majority reported significantly improved loading speeds.

    Bought this for my Playstation 5 for added storage as it meets and exceeds the minimum read/write speeds required by sony. Transferred games quickly and the speed test shows around 6500.

    I bought this for my PS5 and it has been great. Got a cheap heatsink to go with it and the install was easy. Looking forward to not having to manage my storage as much.

    Hands down one of the best NVMEs available. Period. Probably don't need more than 1TB for a Gen. 4 drive yet, but with current prices 1TB is the sweet spot for value.

    I wasn’t going to upgrade the storage on my PS5 but these were on sale and I had expiring Reward Points so I grabbed one. Easy to install. Just make sure you use a heatsink.

    Blazing fast. I use this for gaming and it loads so fast. Super easy to install. Little pricey but you get what you pay for with these things. Better to buy a good name brand.

    Bought for my ps5 was a little cheaper, than sn850 with heatsink built in. I add my own heatsink. Works great. If your a big game I suggest the 2 terabyte.

    Works as intended, put in a ps5 with an aftermarket heatsink, can’t really ask for more. Benchmarks usually put this drive close to the top of the stack.

    This hard drive has been impressive so far. I'm enjoying the high speeds brought by the gen 4 connections. As with all SSD's, this boy runs hot so be wary of that.
