Good value and fast

SSD Capacity: 2048GB

Good value, write speed was slightly less (6800-6900) Comes with a heat sink of sorts, seems to be a metal sticker

Not sure what the other review of ps5 read speed was about. The 1TB KC3000 I purchased was reading at 6526MB/s. Only just recently installed but working perfectly so far. Paired with the JEYI warship heatsink from pbtech.

Great with the PS5

SSD Capacity: 2048GB

Managed to get this on an awesome deal with the Black Friday sale. I just installed it now after a quick Youtube tutorial and works great. I did pair it with the Be Quiet MC1 heatsink. Managed to get around 6,500MB/s read speeds on the PS5. Definitely happy with my purchase.

Excellent for the PS5 and the wallet

SSD Capacity: 2048GB

This is remarkably, priced well below the main SSD options for the PS5 (even when not on special). That includes WD Black, and Samsung 900 series. Likely incredible for PCs and laptops.

Kingston is a solid brand, for tech components and memory storage. I've used them on and off for SD cards and they do last the distance.

For PS5: It does have a heat spreader on the memory, but I figured an actual heatsink would still be a safer bet. In my case I got a Jeyi M.2 Heatsink and only placed the two thermal strips on the SSD. No need for the copper strip (since it already has one installed). When installing, you do have to be careful as Sony ...view more

Great option for PS5 m.2 expanded storage - Gen 4 drive despite description

SSD Capacity: 2048GB

Same hardware/firmware as Kingston's Fury Renegade line of gen 4 m.2 SSDs. Excellently priced SSD that is within the recommended specs for PS5 M.2 storage. Comes with an integrated heatspreader, so you shouldn't need to worry about an additional heatsink. Priced below competitors like the 980 pro, or SN850 and still comes with a decently long manufacturers warranty.
