Fantom Drives VENOM8 2TB SSD NVMe Gen 4 M.2 2280 for PS5 Storage Expansion, Gaming PC & Laptops - Up to 7400MB/s - 3D NAND TLC 2TB M.2 (VM8X20)

The product comprised a cool 2TB very slim 2.5 Seagate HDD, metal housing with connection tray for re-using the old HDD removed from the PS4, SATA connection cable, an 8GB USB drive, and a mini Phillips head screw driver. There is also a set of instructions on how to replace the 2TB drive into the PS4. Please read the instructions carefully, and several times to make that the correct files are backed up in the USB drive so that one can get back all the game data when the game apps are re-installed in the new 2TB drive, or you will have to start all over again in your game journey. Here are so me things to take note of which were not covered in the instructions: 1. The drive housing in the PS4 is made for the slightly thicker Samsung 2.5 drive. The thickness is caused by the larger damped top cover of the Samsung drive, although it is technically the same form factor as the replacement Seagate drive.So when you replace with the Seagate 2 TB with the slimmer profile, you do have to align the four screw holes in place with the housing while attaching the screws. In the end, you will see a slight gap between the installed Seagate drive and the base of the housing. That is OK. Being properly aligned with the housings screw holes is critical to get the drive to slot in properly to the PS4 drive interface. 2. Not so happy with the teeny tiny screw driver provided in the kit because it has a small handle that does not handle well or exert sufficient torque to undo the main central screw in the pS4. I ended up using my own Torx head screw driver. This is the reason why I gave the product 4 instead of 5 stars.

Item came in on time, took less than 10 minutes to put in and it’s doing what it supposed to do.

Easy Install and setup. Will buy again.

Simple plug and play modification for a PS5. Use the RED heat pad though, not the singles, or the blue one. The instructions say to use the blue one but its not thick enough. Use the RED or itll end up dead.

Had to buy a heatsink separately but it was worth the money.

Runs good no issues.

I hate that every time I want to revisit a game or download a new one I must delete a current game I’m using. It was super easy to install, I was worried thinking I should of went with the 4tb but surprisingly The 2tb is plenty enough for me to download 15 games that I won’t play buy at least have the access too.

I bought this for my PlayStation 5 & it is 100% worth the money!

We were super excited to have the extra space! Great packaging and awesome deal!

I bought the 2Tb with heatsink for my PS5 drive version. It was really easy to install. The only thing that I actually had to look up was, which thermal pad to use. Just inserted the NVMe drive, put on the blue thermal pad, and installed the heatsink. At first, I thought the heatsink mount screw wasnt going to install, but just had to move the heatsink around till screw holes were actually lined up. Format was easy to do, and drive read speed was 6386. Reformatted again and got the same read speed. This drive is fast and worth the price, being that its just as fast or even faster than some other well-known name brands. Now if only the PS5 Wi-Fi speed could keep up when downloading my purchased games for PS4 with the PS5 version. So, I havent had a chance to play any games, yet. The only con to this is on my part, I couldnt afford the 4Tb version. As I have already said, this drive is worth it.
