Excellent product. Super easy to install and use in the PS5.

its very good lots of space for games i do recommend this

It's literally plug and play. PlayStation made this so simple to upgrade. Takes all of 5 mins and you're done. Absolutely recommend to anyone looking to buy a PlayStation. Games today are so much bigger and you'll fill up your storage in no time.

Satisfied with this purchase except when i tried to use ps5 free trail on the 23rd it says key used already or invalid

Pretty expensive but good product. Performs better than josh Allen.

The WD SN850P SSD is a top choice for use in a PlayStation 5 but I’m unsure it has an advantage over its lower priced twin sibling, the WD SN850X with heatsink. On Western Digital’s website and other marketing materials, the SN850X with heatsink is listed as compatible with PS5. The SN850P is endorsed by Sony, the SN850X is not. The PS5 also has a slightly larger heatsink than the SN850X with heatsink. Those differences and their respective MSRPs, from my own research, seem to be what separate the two models. (I want to stress here this comparison is strictly between the SN850P and SN850X with included pre-installed heatsink.) The WD SN850P SSD is an update to the WD SN850, and, at least theoretically, offers speed improvement over its descendant. The WD SN850 was well regarded for its fast, smooth nature, so this release is more of a refinement of that older model. Out of the box, the WD SN850P feels solid with great build quality. The pre-attached heatsink is beefy and its industrial design is fun to admire, though not for long since installation hides it from view. I can only assume the heatsink is doing its job as I’ve yet to get any signs of overheating during 45min to 1 hour play sessions. I’m only a casual gamer and realize 1-hour sessions are not a long time to true gamers. Installation into the PS5 is simple, only requires a screwdriver, and will not itself void your PS5 warranty – Sony even has an official quick “how to” video on YouTube. Do be sure to follow directions including eliminating static electricity before handling the SSD or opening the PS5. The entire process took me about 5 minutes, only because I went slow removing the PS5’s cover, having never done it before and not wanting to break anything. The rest of the procedure is effortless. The WD SN850P has a perfect fit in all directions inside the expansion port. The PS5 automatically and quickly formats the SSD at the next “power on” – with user permission – and then reports the read speed of the new drive. My PS5 reported 6527 MB/s. I’ve included a screen shot since “pics or it didn’t happen.” The “in real life” read speed on this WD SN850P seems unchanged from the older WD SN850 for PS5 based on benchmark videos I’ve watched for the latter model. That’s not surprising since most of the speed gains in the WD SN850P are with its write functionality. I’ve also never seen any kind of storage device from any manufacturer consistently perform near its theoretical speeds. Once the SSD is ready to use you can use the “storage” menu on your PS5 to assign where your current and future games and apps should be stored; either on the SSD or the PS5’s onboard storage. It’s quick and easy to transfer games from one storage location to the other. My PS5 shows that I have the full 2GB of usable storage on the WD SN850P. Thumbs up there because its common to see market storage sizes that are bigger than actual storage size once formatted. Game play on the WD SN850P is terrific as it should be on a high-end SSD. Perhaps it’s a placebo effect, but I feel like game and scene load faster on this drive than on the PS5’s stock drive. Performance is super smooth, no hanging or stuttering at all even after playing for almost an hour and letting the PS5 and SDD heat up a bit. I’ve sampled fast moving games like Gran Turismo 7 as well as slower games like MLB The Show 2022. There is no doubt the WD SN850P more than gets the job done for PS5 game play and auxiliary storage. But with the specs of the lower priced SN850X with heatsink being nearly identical to the WD SN850P, the elephant in the room for me is, is the PS logo and Sony endorsement on the WD SN850P worth its extra cost over the SN850X? That’s a value question every buyer has to calculate into their own priorities. Some may find value and comfort in installing a “authorized,” product over a merely “compatible” one. Personally, in this case, I’d rather have a few more dollars in my pocket for games.

It works very perfectly. I'm more satisfied because it contains a 14-day trial code for new PS members.

Great product, I love it. Best Buy always clutch A+
