I'm a pretty avid gamer (old school as I still remember when memory cards were to save game saves and not used for storing entire games) and I waited to get an SSD for the Ps5 because I didn't want to spend so much money for memory I figured I could just delete as I went on.Well the time finally came when my backlog grew and then PS Plus added downloadable older games so I didn't want to waste time anymore downloading 100 GB newer games so I caved and the following are my impressions of this particular brand of SSD:Pros:-It's an officially licensed SSD by Sony-It's faster than the supposed better one IGN recommended the speed is shown when you initially format it (the samsung SSD was giving users read speeds of around 5000 and this one reaches 7k even though an important thing you should keep in mind is that the PS5 is capped at around 7k so it will not allow an SSD to reach the crazy numbers you see on the internet those speeds are for PC users who use it)-No issue formattingCons- It's overpriced like every other SSD out there, it boggles my mind why a memory expansion is this expensive but I guess it's still that shiny new piece of tech that will eventually be cheaper once the next big thing is announced-No matter what people tell me I'll never admit that it's "easy" to install this. There's one big issue with having to put this in and that's the ugly amount of pressure you have to put on your side plates to get them off. It's ridiculous that they made it this cumbersome I highly recommend a youtube video. If you do it yourself you WILL scratch the inside of your Ps5 trust me.-There's an LED light that becomes useless for PS5 since it's hiddenSo yea, sorry if I sound jaded but overall it does what it needs to do and I recommend this over the others because of the write speed but I'm jaded because these things are too expensive and I don't blame you if you decide to just wait it out for a cheaper choice thats an official one or just keep deleting those games if it works for you

I bought this for my PS5, installation was so easy and the storage makes enough for me to be able to store so many games, I’m so happy!!

Love the added storage!

Works well on a PS5 to extend game storage capacity

It is as described. Works great.

Great investment! Works great on a PS5 and adds so much more space for games. Quality drive that operates just as fast as the internal drive in the system!

I’ve had no problems with it. It’s a very quick installation.

Highly recommend, quality is great I will be upgrading to the 4tb this year will not use any other brand on my PC or ps5.
