The easiest upgrade and it made accessing games so much less of a hassle! I should have done this sooner, but I did not realize how simple it was to add storage. Sony made accessing the port a breeze with a tooless removal for the outer shell. After that, one screw holds on the cover where the drive goes, plug the drive in, put it back together, turn on the PS5 and follow the on-screen instructions. You can then use the storage settings menu to quickly transfer your data from the small drive that it came with, to your much larger secondary drive! No more having to constantly delete games to sdd a new one!!

I love how much more space I have on my PS5. It took me barely 5 minutes to install this and have my system back together and connected to my TV. The speed is amazing and you see no dropoff from built in memory.

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:

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.

Setup took minimal time and required 1 small screwdriver. Simple instillation and, after a quick update, my storage increased. Download speeds have been fast and I’ve yet to notice any input or output delay from video games stored on it. I honestly wish I bought it sooner.

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.

With games getting bigger & bigger, you'll definitely need a storage upgrade. I've noticed a lot of games generally load slightly faster sense I've installed them on this. Easy to install & use.

The WD - BLACK SN850P 2TB Internal SSD was easy to install in my PS5 & it works just fine. If you need that extra internal storage space, the WD BLACK SN850P 2TB is for you.
I do suggest you watch a video or 2 before trying to install the chip yourself. You don't want to end up breaking your PS5 or the chip during installation.

This was perfect for expanding the memory in my PS5. Installation was super simple as well. This is much better than just connecting an external hard drive. You can install and play games with this internal memory expansion.

Got me the additional storage I needed since PS5 skimped on that. Can fit plenty of games, clips, whatever I want. Games load in faster than they did on the included hard drive space. I'm very happy.

Simple and straightforward to install in the PS5. If you’re still apprehensive after reading the instructions, I’d recommend watching one of the many YouTube videos showing someone doing this in real time. Once installed, formats quickly and has its own storage capacity meter under system settings. Now I can have a great deal of games installed without worrying about running out of space. Fantastic upgrade.
