SABRENT 2TB Rocket 4 Plus NVMe 4.0 Gen4 PCIe M.2 Internal SSD Extreme Performance Solid State Drive R/W 7100/6600MB/s (Latest Version) (SB-RKT4P-2TB)

I actually bought this as a back up in case the one that came with the SSD I bought didnt fit right. I ended up not needing this but it did fit my PS5 flawlessly.

Great heat sink for PS5. Still gets a little warm but havent had an issue yet.

100% Recommend. Just arrived and installed this evening. I had been keeping my eye out for its release ever since reading about it. It just happened that I checked on Thanksgiving day and it was suddenly available. Not only was it available but it was the same price as the normal Rocket 4 drive ($199 for the 1TB) and was 30 bucks less than the competing Samsung 980 Pro. So I spent the difference on the available Sabrent NVME heatsink ($24) available on Amazon (if you are going to use one of these drives, you really should have some sort of heatsink to get optimal performance). Cloning my system drive was simple. Sabrent provides a version of Acronis but most any of the other popular tools would have worked as well. Reboot and done. As soon as I powered my machine back on from install, I noticed that seconds had been shaved off of boot time. It went from power off to Windows loading spinning and to a login prompt in less than 15 seconds. I had been using a Sabrent Rocket gen3 in that slot previously and it performed well but this another level. I checked the health and made sure all was good with Sabrents Rocket Control Center and once everything looked good I ran my first benchmark (crop of the results above). It is simply crazy fast. It really has made a noticeable difference in apps opening and loading, large video files open nearly instantly and my next test will be VM performance but wanted to write this for anyone on the fence. While I agreed with the argument that PICE 4 Gen 4 drives would likely NOT really make a huge difference over a fast gen 3 drive, this new line of superfast Sabrents, 980 Pros, WD sn850 drives ABOSULTELY offer real world differences in usability and performance. Coupled with the heatsink, at idle it runs 32C and under load has never broken 39C. As an aside, to see performance like this, you must install it in a PCie 4.0 compatible M.2 slot and most of these are currently found only on AMD x570 motherboards. Even on boards with 2 m.2 slots, make sure you choose one that is connected to the 4.0 BUS. Often, this is the slot closest to the CPU socket. More boards are coming with 2 m.2 slots and in many cases only one is PCIE 4.0. It will run in other slots but you will not see the speeds advertised. I have been working with PCs and in IT since before the days of PATA 33 drives and always kept wondering when we would see the days of instant boot times. Well, with this generation of drives, we are getting awfully close. Finally.

Seems to be working like a charm have not had any over heating issues with my PS5. Product does exactly what it described.

Original review: I decided to grab this over the Samsung 980 Pro, because I wanted 2TB. Its quite fast, which is to be expected. Definitely highly recommended! Update 3/1/2021: Things arent going well at all. According to HWInfo64, Im down to 94% life remaining already, on a disk Ive only been using for just a couple of days over 3 months. For comparison, the 970 Pro I replaced with this Sabrent disk had been in use for over a year (from August 2019), and it still shows 99% life remaining. Usage is exactly the same, etc. FYI, both disks were the 2TB model. Of course, I understand the 970 Pro is MLC vs TLC on the Sabrent (and 980 Pro), but still - this is a substantial trade-off. This gives me a total life remaining of somewhere around 4 years - but I expect that I would likely see some signs of degradation long before that. Its also tough to find anywhere that Sabrent has documented the TBW lifetime of this drive, and I suspect that could be due to a less-than-impressive result. For comparison, the 980 Pro has an endurance rating of 1200TBW. If that disk was at 94% life remaining, that would mean that you have written 47TB to disk. Ive written 16TB, which is admittedly a lot for 3 months - and Im not even sure how Ive done that, since activity has been somewhat minimal - but that same TBW would only equate to around 1.33% of the life of the Samsung, rather than 6% of the life of the Sabrent. So, by that measure, the Sabrent seems to have roughly 1/4 the data endurance of the Samsung 980 Pro, meaning the endurance of this drive is only around 300TBW! This is HALF of the endurance of even Samsungs QLC offering in the same 2TB size, and not even on-par with the 1TB QLC offering. The moral of the story is, yes - this drive is absolutely the best performance offering right now, but that slim margin definitely comes at a substantial cost to the endurance of the drive. Its still a good disk, and Ive experienced no issues at all with it, but definitely do take that into consideration when youre making your decision on which way to go. Personally, if I had known how bad the endurance would be, I would have opted for the 980 Pro, and taken the marginal hit on performance. For others, though, its performance above all else, and I completely understand and respect that decision. Good luck!

This replaces the PS5s SSD slot cover plate. It fits perfectly and was very easy to install.

Quality looks and feels amazing dont bother looking around for a better ps5 solution or paying a higher price for an ssd with a pre-installed heatsink just buy it! I havent gotten to test it yet since my samsung 980 pro was dead on arrival but it will be a massive improvement over the sheetmetal door on the ps5 that holds in a pocket of heat effectively slowing down and stressing your new ssd expansion

I didnt used because, But I gift it to my friend

For anyone that owns a PS5, I cant recommend this enough!! I was looking at a bunch of different heatsinks for a while trying to find some that fit with the PS5 without affecting the stock SSD cover (which many heatsinks do). It seems like there are so many heatsinks that cause problems but this one is perfect! It not only functions as a heatsink for the m.2 SSD but it also replaces the stock SSD cover on the PS5. This is a great feature, so you get best of both worlds, and dont have to worry about whether or not the heatsink will fit. Not to mention, Sabrent has always been a very reliable brand that makes quality products. Ive been purchasing many electronics, accessories, and things of that nature from Sabrent over the years, and they always seem to have a solid amount of quality with their products!
