This is definitely the go-to choice for increasing storage on the PS5. Offers the exact same specs as the pricier PlayStation licensed SN850P, just without the PS branding. Installation and setup is a breeze as well. It is not the cheapest of the options available but after a year of using it, it runs games at speeds identical to those installed on the PS5’s own SSD with no issues whatsoever and I have no regrets.

The media could not be loaded. I really don’t know what’s going on with delivery agents these days. This is my second bad experience in Jaipur with an expensive purchase. When they’re running late and can’t make the delivery by 8–9 PM, they just give a blank or fake call without saying a word and then mark it as “customer unavailable.” Because of this, my 5-star LG AC worth 49K order got returned to the seller just last week. Then bought it locally at good discount.Anyway, about this order— the packaging was utter garbage. The seller or warehouse didn’t even bother to properly secure such an expensive and fragile item. It was shipped in just the product box with the invoice taped to it. That’s it. We all know how painful returns can be if something ends up damaged.Thankfully, the SSD arrived intact, thanks to the internal plastic casing. First thing I did was verify the serial number on WD’s warranty site, and luckily, it was genuine. My PS5 reports a read speed of 6,902 MB/s, which is a bit lower than the advertised 7,300 MB/s. Still, it actually felt faster when copying disc data compared to the internal drive. Another plus— the usable space is a full 2TB, unlike some other drives that reserve 5–10% for system use.

Working as expected.

WD has been my favorite brand and this was my second WD NVMe SSD and first one in TB capacity range. Definitely great performance for my gaming needs. There is no lag in loading big games like Harry Potter legacy and A plague Tale requiem. If your remaining PC Hardware can manage demanding games, this drive is a definite worth the value it brings to the table for speed, dependability and near 0 latency. I did not observe any errors or lags in any application or game I have set up on this drive in months of using it.

Great performance

Excellent Experience. Excellent Experience.Excellent Experience. Excellent Experience.Excellent Experience. Excellent Experience.Excellent Experience. Excellent Experience.Excellent Experience. Excellent Experience.

This ssd is perfectly compatible with the ps5 and comfortably provides read speed close to 6400 MB/s which is very fast as I moved my 200 GB call of duty and it took merely 14 seconds for that. Prefer it over any other ssd . It’s working perfectly and its installation is also very easy.
