    Bought this for my PS5 as I am sure many have. I love it , slots right in, and boots right up after a quick software update. Has been good to me, to the point I purchased another for my PC to replace a 1TB drive I had. Boot speeds got faster and continues to work like a champ. *knock on wood*

    Super fast! Love it. Few questions though- Why don't these things come with screws? I had to order screws on Amazon before I could properly seat it. Also, what's the point of that teen-tiny LED? Just for fun I installed yet another RGB program (WD's) just to see if that microscopic flashing light was indeed configurable- and yep, it is. Although, you it is completely lost amongst anything else you might have going on in your system.

    I now have more storage on my PS5 thanks to this. It does its job just how it's supposed to and hasn't given me any problems whatsoever. Easy to install and cheap. I just hope they continue going down in price as they have been over the past few couple months. Highly recommended.

    Exactly what I needed. Download/upload speeds are better than an external drive - exactly why I got it. I have plenty of space on my PS5 now. Very easy to install. Got it for an amazing price too

    WD SN850X 2TB SSD: A Genuine Game-Changer!

    I've got to say, I'm over the moon about the WD SN850X 2TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 4 x4 NVMe. This thing is a beast! The speed it brings to my computer is just mind-blowing – tasks are like a breeze now. And they even threw in a heatsink for PS5 and desktops – that's a nice touch. It's not just an upgrade; it's like a whole new level of joy for someone who spends a lot of time on their computer. WD really nailed it with this SSD.

    I’m not exactly a "tech expert," so I was nervous about opening my PS5. I chose this specific WD-BLACK model because the heatsink is already attached. It took me less than 5 minutes to pop the PS5 cover off, screw this in, and format it.

    I had bought this piece of equipment for my ps5 and I must say it was very easy to install, the box came with instructions that I understood very clearly. Overall took about 5-8 min to install and after doing so I had a lot of storage space to download my favorite games and apps. It is quite pricey but good for long term

    Received a PS5 this past Christmas and knew that I would need some additional storage for games. This was perfect and the price wasn't crazy at the time. Still recommended.

    Product is amazing! Bought for sons PS5. Got it just before it sold out again! If you can get this ssd buyit! Definitely worth it! As for ordering it and having it shipped to your house I would strongly recommend having it shipped to store!!! Fed Ex had mine dragging it all over for almost a week when it was supposed to be delivered in two days!!! If I was best buy I wouldnt use them! Fed ex is TERRIBLE in my opinion!

    Hated running out of storage on my first PS5 so ended up just giving it to my son and played on PC more. Started missing some of things of the PS5 so decided to purchase another and was like i dont want to deal with storage issues again. Installed easy like i imagined it would, PS5 reconigized it on the first of the system, formatted quickly and coming up on over a week of playing games straight from the drive no issues, extremely fast PS5 showed speeds of over 6500 mbps

    Great storage space especially for upcoming new games and cheaper alternative than the PS licensed one. Same company that manufactures the PS logo one. It’s actually pretty small the picture makes it look huge compared to the actual product lol

    Have had the 850 for well over a year now and I can’t recommend it enough. Just bought the 850x to compliment it, and for extra space. Loads R6 siege in the matter of seconds. Extremely easy to install, just wish it came with a screw as my MOBO was apparently missing the second m.2 slots screw

    Guaranteed to work and it does. Simple to install. I know it can be nerve racking tacking your ps5 panel off but trust me, it’s simple. And this thing worked, plug and play literally lol. Now I have plenty of room and speeds are great. I know it’s a bit of a premium but it’s price of mind knowing that you don’t have to worry about it not being the right pcie or anything.
