SAMSUNG 980 PRO SSD 2TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 Gaming M.2 Internal Solid State Drive Memory Card + 2mo Adobe CC Photography, Maximum Speed, Thermal Control (MZ-V8P2T0B)

I came from a SATA drive so I was amazed at how much read/write speed I gained. It is noticeable in games and even in windows. Magician and data conversion software from Samsung makes installing and monitoring the drive very easy. I caught a sale and got the heatsink 2 TB model for less than 200 USD. That is cheap for the upgrade I gained. I have used Samsung drives in my builds for the past 10 years and have had zero problems.

I only get a write speed of 540 MB/s and a read speed of 1.5 GB/s and the price dropped rapidly after I bought but I was unable to cancel my order despite over a week of delays before shipping

Everything fits great and my ps5 now has and extra 1tb .

This was super easy to install in my PS5. The only trick was sliding the cover off the PS5, which I watched a video to make sure I pulled in the correct direction to make sure I didnt break any tabs or anything. Other than that, its one screw to open the very obvious expansion port cover, then you pop the stick in and move another screw to hold it in place. Sony clearly intends for people to make this one simple surgery on their system; everything else is hidden from view behind other panels. When I turned the PS5 on, it recognized and formatted the new hard drive, and it had 1.01TB storage on it.

The fast and quick answer is, yes It works on the ps5, it did on mine. And its really fast too, and affordable.

When the one terabyte drive that was in my laptop reported eminent failure, I picked one of these up and did a straight across clone. Then I adjusted my C partition so that I have twice the space that I had before. This has been very reliable for me and in fact since my laptop can take two drives, I purchased a second one in populated the other slot. So now I have 400% more space than was initially sold to me with the laptop. Very quality workmanship and reliable. I highly recommend this

It is testing up to 3,300 MBytes per second, read and write. (Note: bytes not bits.) This is on a twelve year-old I7 gaming computer, kind of low to mid range these days. Total happiness.

Clone of my old drive took a over an hors, but only because it was over a slow USB port. My 8th Gen Core-I7 machine used to take 45-60 seconds to boot. I now have a login screen in under 10 seconds from a cold boot.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Everybody has the fastest NVME. Yeah...well THIS bad boy moves data like crazy....Copying 600gb and it never dropped below 500mb a second. What would normally take so long you go eat breakfast and come back to see how far its gone....this was done in 5 minutes!!! I for sure would buy this again!!!!

Unfortunately did not fit my nephews laptop but I wouldve loved to have something like this for myself. We ultimately ordered the one without a heatsink. Windows made it very difficult to install this due to Bitlocker and other just pathetic, inconvenient standards. Absolutely nothing worked, not the keys, not the restores, not the backups, not the alternative boots. EVEN AFTER WIPING THE HARD DRIVE and putting a fresh OS on it, it refused to boot from anything other than the original hard drive. Eventually I found some work-arounds after an exhausting couple of days attempting absolutely everything I learned during my A+ certification... Works like a charm.
