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)

If you are looking to expand your storage capacity in your PS5, Look no further. I watched this for awhile and found it on sale. Installation was a breeze and was back up and running in less than 20 minutes. No issues with compatibility so far. It is fast enough to run games straight off of it without lag or latency issues. Highly recommend!!!!

I first put this into my MOB that was only Able to get Gen 3 speeds and I did not think I would see a difference being that this is Gen 4. Boy was I wrong. Much snappier response time getting in and out of programs transferring files from USB were a little quicker. Loading the OS was a little quicker to. It also runs Cooler then any of my other drives by about 5-7C the average Idle Temp was 25-27C In a desktop anyway. Later I put the drive in a Gen 4 MOB. Loading Windows was incredibly fast. Boot up to Desktop was 2-3 seconds faster then Gen 3 and shut down time was about twice as Quick. Overall for 72$ when it was on sale for a 500 GB you can’t go wrong. The only downside is it uses a little more power then other drives I would feel better putting this in a desktop rather then a laptop due to the power consumption. The thin heat spreader seems to do a good job keeping the drive cool most the time but when you stress it the temp goes up a bit but has never thermal throttled on me. It does run a little hotter then some other Gen 4 drives when stressed but nothing to be concerned about. UPDATE: after using the drive for 4 months it still holds up and after testing several other Gen 4 drives including the Kingston KC3000, WD SN770 and Hynix P41 the Sabrent has the fastest boot to windows 10 by an entire 3 seconds and also slightly less shutdown time. The only downside is endurance. After writing 3.5 TB the drive went to 99% and if you don’t have a fan in your PC cooing the drive it does get hotter then others but other then that seems just as fast and faster in some ways as even higher end drives.

Super solid choice. When installed it fits perfectly to the PS5 with the added flair. i suggest this as a MUST BUY with your SSD.

Very fast as a boot drive.Exchanged it for a Samsung 980 Pro 2TB drive which was slowing down, running at half its rated speed after 1.5 years of operation.

Better than installing a heatsink and then covering it up like Sony suggest.

I will buys this again. No mess heat sink fits right on the cover slot. Totally easy installation.

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!

It was smaller than I expected, but it arrived on time and it is exactly what I ordered. I am pleased.

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
