A must have for the PS5!! I got the 1tb and wow it runs fast and loads the games quicker than the original SSD on the ps5 and make sure you buy a heat sink for it and I got one for it and very easy to install.

Best on the market! (end 2020). Better to have a heatsink on it.
My motherboard (msi x570 tomahawk) came with one, otherwise I would have bought one.
Look at the result in the image attached… Impressive!

Purchased to replace a slightly slower NVMe boot drive. Can’t really tell the difference when booting, but it benchmarks almost twice as fast as the other drive. You will need PCIE 4.0 to see these speeds, I used a B550 motherboard. Benchmarking this drive I see read speeds of over 7GB/s, and write speeds of over 5GB/s, see the benchmark output for details.

Bought it for my PS5 and it works perfectly. The only thing to note is that you’ll need to buy a heat sink for it. I picked one up separately that fit and installed it into my PS5 without issue.

Got this drive installed and Windows installed and I am now getting close to the speed specs after having to change a couple things. Please read my tips, it may help you and save some frustration and even maybe save you from returning it. To get that max speeds this needs to be installed in a PCIe 4.0 compatible motherboard with a PCIe 4.0 compatible CPU. I am using this in an Asus X570 Tuf Gaming Plus with a Ryzen 3900X. This also needs to be installed in the M.2 slot closest to the CPU which has a direct connection to the CPU, I initially had it in the bottom slot below the PCIe slots and that one is connected to the chipset which is slower, I was getting like half the write speeds at first until I switched it. You also need to download and install the WD SSD Dashboard so you can enable the Gaming Mode, otherwise again, speeds won’t be as fast. After those couple things, I am now getting closed to advertised speeds and I am happy.

Bought for the sole purpose of installing it into my PS5. With a $12 heatsink bought elsewhere this installed very easily. Speed test after formatting was around 6500mb/s. I’ve been using it for about a month now and have had no issues with it. One of the highest rated SSDs to install into a PS5 so I highly recommend this instead of other brands.

Perfect for the PS5. I grabbed this and the sabrent ps5 heatsink.
A winning combination for an ssd upgrade for your PS5.

As advertised speeds, does get pretty hot 80c, paired it with rockets heat sink which cost about 20$ off Amazon, haven’t broke 45-50c with it yet. File transfer multi 100gig files in a matter of a minutes. You won’t be disappointed.
