Key Specs
- Storage Capacity: 2000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
- Storage Drive Type: SSD, SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
- Maximum Read Speed: 7300 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
- Maximum Write Speed: 6900 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
- Form Factor: M.2 2280
- Interface(s): PCIe Gen 4 x4 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Product Manuals

Q: Is this for a ps5 only or can it be used in a computer

A: It’s applicable with both pc and gaming systems

Q: What is the difference between the ZP2000GP3A1001 and ZP2000GP3A4001? Which one is better?

A: This one is not officially licensed for PS5 it’s just Ps5 ready. The specs are identical as far as I can tell from Seagate's spec sheets. The NVMe vs M.2 naming is just semantics, they are identical interfaces. The only difference seems to be that this one is “PS5 Ready” whereas the other one is “ Officially licensed for PS5”.

Q: What exactly does this do for a PS5 does it increase the internal memory storage to save games? and doe the device save games automatically. imy trying to get as much emory as I can on my ps5 for game like grand theft oft and Harry Potter. /

A: Yes, the device is installed in a port easily accessible under the playstation's top cover. The port is designed for additional SSD memory to be installed. You can then select the storage location for games from settings to be either the internal storage or this SSD. I am playing Harry Potter on it right now.

Q: Is there any difference in this vs the firecuda 2tb for PS5. They look the same as far as writing speeds to me but I’m not familiar with SSD’s.

A: There isn't a difference that I found it has the same read/write speed. The blue band on the front is about all the difference there is
