There's nothing really too complicated about this M.2 SSD. It's not just PlayStation branding on a SSD. It takes away a lot of the guesswork with compatibility for the PS5 because it's made for the PS5. It's designed with a heatsink and fits inside the PS5 with no issues. What's impressive is the speed! Everything loads up so quickly! Unfortunately, if you're transferring games from an external drive to the SSD, it will only go as fast as the external drive, so it'll be MUCH slower and not indicative of the speed performance the SN850P delivers, so keep that in mind. Installing games after downloading them was noticeably quicker than the stock SSD the PS5 comes with. And playing them immediately after, I didn't experience any slowdown, not even after 2 hours of continuous gameplay of Spider-Man Remastered in 4K, 120Hz VRR. To get a better idea of the SSD's capabilities, I temporarily installed the SN850P on my desktop PC to run a CrystalDiskMark benchmark test on it. The results were surprising. Sequential Read: SEQ1M Q8T1: 7377.19 MB/s SEQ128K Q32T1: 7376.76 MB/s Sequential Write: SEQ1M Q8T1: 6693.06 MB/s SEQ128K Q32T1: 6695.91 MB/s Random Read: SEQ1M Q8T1: 4816.91 MB/s SEQ128K Q32T1: 88.99 MB/s Random Write: SEQ1M Q8T1: 4718.49 MB/s SEQ128K Q32T1: 300.34 MB/s The random write speeds are fantastic! So, not just for the PS5, it makes a great M.2 SSD for a PC as well. Be aware that the heatsink is just under 0.5" so you'll need the clearance. It's also slightly wider than the average M.2 SSD because of its heatsink design. I'd say about 1mm wider. Price competitively, will absolutely fit the PS5, and just incredibly fast, I can definitely recommend getting this SSD. I'd even go as far as recommending it for PC. The fantastic random write speeds make transferring a large size of a numerous amount of small files more speedy and less of a chore.

Easy to install works great no issues at all now I have a lot of space on my ps5. Just pop off the sliders and poke the external hard drive rate in the back of the PlayStation.

The WD SSD card for PS5 is a fantastic upgrade! It delivers lightning-fast load times, seamless gameplay, and ample storage for all your favorite titles. Installation is quick and easy, and performance is top-notch. If you want to maximize your PS5’s potential, this SSD is an absolute must-have!

Works perfect for my Playstation 5. Installation was easy. The PS5 detected and reformatted it without any issues. Games are loading off this SSD successfully.

Lots of storage and very fast, easy upgrade to your computer

This product is the way to go. If your looking for more space for lots more games other than having to delete games constantly just to make room for another one..this is the way to go. Its really eazy to install and really easy to use. Highly recommended

The transfer process was smooth and efficient. - **Simple Installation:** My biggest worry was installing it within my PS5, but that turned out to be super simple. The instructions were clear, and it only took a few minutes. - **Reliable Brand:** This product comes from a reputable company known for its high-quality hardware. **Cons:** - **Cost:** The only downside is the price. It is a bit on the expensive side, but considering the quality and performance, it's understandable. Good hard drives tend to cost more. **Conclusion:** All in all, this is a great product from a great company. Despite the higher price, the ease of use, performance boost, and simple installation make it worth the investment.

Does what it's supposed to. If you need extra memory for your ps5 And I'm sure most will.. its a must have. If you have any of those seagate external ssd's they can save your ps5 games on them but they can not run them you would have to copy it back on to your ps5 to play where as this ssd will save and play your games directly. It is very simple to install you can look up a youtube video and have it done within a few minutes.

Works perfectly. Great amount of storage. Works plug-and-play for PCs too.

Works flawlessly, no issues. 10/10. Easy install and will load games at a very fast pace

Old drive died and had to replace my OS which was a first and honestly took quite a while to find this drive but after reinstalling windows onto a old HDD and booting up the PC it recognized the drive. Had to do a fresh windows reinstall onto the nvme but once that was situated it had been a absolute horse as a OS

Easy to install in the PS5. The performance is excellent, super easy to use. I still have lots of storage available!

Extremely easy to physically install this memory expansion. Took a couple mins to format (1-2) after that and now I've quadrupled my storage capacity. Costs less than the Firecuda and works just as well. Very happy with my purchase

This is just my personal opinion on a few things that I have noticed in the product description on the package it comes in. All though it's states for the PS5 this is a production that you should read everything on the box and even go to WD's website and research on before for you say that it will not work in a PC or Laptop as you will see in the one picture that I include of the back it states it will work depending on your operating system I have also found a lot of reviews out there on several sites saying that the product will not even work in the PS5 which is not totally correct either and with that being said this is the number one problem that a lot of people are having with it ( They don't research and read up on how to install it properly in the PS5 much less in a PC or Laptop you need to format it to the PS5 operating system which is very different to a computer), which I had to do as it does come set up to a different format at least the one I got did and that's why I said do your research on it first before trying to install it and you'll get it setup correctly. I have it installed on mine and it works. At this time I only have 3 games downloaded and installed on it which are over 60gig with more to come soon. Pros of having a 2tb SSD are the amount of storage for the bigger games,speed of the read/write and ease of install (if you research on how to do so). The only cons I found with it are the product description being incorrect and the negative reviews on other websites which will remain hidden out of respect. This is a 100% get and 100% yes to recommending to my friends who do play video games on BOTH the PS5, PC or Laptop

I bought this drive because my PS5’s internal storage was practically empty. The installation was super easy—the only tricky part for someone new to opening up the PS5 is removing the side panel, but otherwise, it’s a breeze. Once it’s installed and formatted, the drive works great, and moving games from the main storage to the extended storage is incredibly fast. I moved a 200GB game in just one minute! If you ever feel like your PS5 is running out of space, this product is definitely worth it. It gives you plenty of room to work with, the speed is top-notch, and the installation is a simple one-time process.

Needed more space than what the PS5 offered (which isn’t acceptable in my opinion). This drive had 2TB after install which will last me quite a while. Definitely worth the sale price and had a slight noticeable speed increase - 6750. Not close to the 7300 WD claims but I knew going in it wasn’t going to reach that speed. Would’ve been nice to hit over 6800 but many have stated the PS drive is slower than the speed I got so it’s a nice upgrade. The drive is super easy to install. As many have said, the trickiest part is removing the PS cover only because you don’t want to damage it. However, I didn’t find it that hard to remove. I wouldn’t pay full price for this drive though but at the price I paid it’s a great value.

Title: Top-tier performance and easy installation I recently picked up the WD - BLACK SN850P 2TB from Best Buy, and it has been a game-changer for my storage needs. Since this model comes with the integrated heatsink, the installation process was incredibly straightforward and literally took just a few minutes. What I Like: • Speed: The PCIe Gen 4 x4 interface delivers lightning-fast load times, which is exactly what you want for high-performance gaming. • Capacity: 2TB is the "sweet spot" for storage, providing plenty of room for a large library without needing to constantly delete and reinstall software. • Build Quality: The PlayStation-licensed branding gives me extra peace of mind regarding compatibility and long-term reliability. Final Verdict: If you are looking to expand your storage with a drive that is fast, reliable, and runs cool thanks to the built-in heatsink, this is easily one of the best options on the market. It’s worth the investment for the performance boost alone. Reviewer Info:

Extr Storage Space For Sure Was Much Needed. Easy install, in perfect time for Grand Theft Auto 6!
