SK hynix Platinum P41 2TB PCIe NVMe Gen4 M.2 2280 Internal Gaming SSD, Up to 7,000MB/S, Compact M.2 SSD Form Factor SSD - Internal Solid State Drive with 176-Layer NAND Flash

No issues running in a ps5. I got a heatsink and Running DBrand darkplates, so I have a bit more ventilation than stock, but there shouldnt be any issues.

Easy install all utilities are on website.

The P41 is the ideal choice for workstation builds and PC gamers alike. It may run warm during normal use without a heat sink, but it does not thermal throttle at intense loads. SK Hynix provides an incredibly value-oriented SSD (high performance-to-cost ratio). For example, this P41 is priced under slower SATA III-based SSDs. The P41 is suitable for the OS drive where you install your OS like Windows II because it boots up very fast and can support features like Direct Storage. This drive is great for people who want the fastest gaming load times like in Genshin Impact or Minecraft RTX. Pro tip: research if your motherboard or laptop model can support PCIe 4.0 and then use this drive instead of the OEM SSDs for a convenient upgrade. Overall, SK Hynix provided an insane bargain for consumers by introducing their P41 line. *Please note I had installed the P41 right behind a 3080 Ti and was loading Genshin Impact, so the temperature had a variance in HWiNFO

Super expensive, but for my needs, the value of the storage device is fairly met to the price. I payed 102 USD. The instructions for installation get two thumbs up from me even though I didnt need them. Well see how reliable it ends up being, it has only been half a year.

Bought the SK Hynix P41 Platinum Gen 4 1TB to replace Samsung EVO 970 Gen 3 512GB. Wanted faster Read and especially Write speed for video editing. Pros: Very easy to install & clone with free Macrium Reflect - my MB has 2 M2 Gen 4 slots & PCIe M2 riser board. P41 uses existing Windows drivers - nothing to install Placed P41 in 2nd Gen 4 M2 slot, cloned old EFIS boot partition & 160 GB C: System partition, then switched over to boot from P41 with no probs. Cons: No supplied heatsink - runs hotter under load than M2 Gen 3, but not as warm as other Gen 4 drives – did fine with basic ASUS MB heatsink. SK Hynix website awful - all Sales, no real Support - tried for 2 days to download Hynix Drive manager software - would download very slowly, then crash. Had to get file from 3rd party (Softpedia) Software is so limited as to be not worth downloading. Other: Strange Write results on ChrystalDiskMark. I have both a C: partition and D: partition on the P41. The D: partition yields SEQ read of 6595MB/s and Write of 6041 MB/s - not what Hynix claimed, but they do say UP TO for their specs. The C partition has similar Read specs, but only can manage 3285 MB/s Write speed. Same M2 NVME Gen 4 slot, same P41 drive, just different partitions. Tried the P41 in both the CPU linked M2 Gen 4 slot and the X570 chipset Gen 4 linked slot - same disparity System is ASUS TUF X570 MB, Ryzen 5900X, DDR4 4000 mem, latest AGESA V2 PI 1.2.0.7 BIOS and AMD chipset drivers. When loading ~175 GB files on D: drive, did run into the “SLC cache full” speed drop – didn’t expect it at that level of transfer, but did recover in a few mins. Overall, for the price, this is a good value for the average user. If you have money to burn on better drive or just have to have the one with the absolute highest specs, do so. For the rest of us, this is an affordable & more than capable Gen 4 drive.

It was a semi easy install. Did have to buy a heatsink for it. But it works amazing. The games that you change over go super fast.

I bought this drive after a Samsung 980 Pro went belly up, after barely a year of moderate use. Clue: look up that drive paired with a Google search of bad blocks. If only I knew... This drive rips and tears through anything I throw at it. It does get a little on the warm side, so I bought a heatsink for it. Still gets a little warm, but better than it going bare-backed. The screenshots were benching right after booting the PC up and the 45c temp was right after running the benchmark. The SK hynix Drive Manager software is decent. Allows for firmware updates and whatnot. Provides many details about the drive like Doorbell Buffer Config command support and temps. The temps have values, thresholds and worst but seems a little odd the way its laid out. Scales go from right to left, meh. First world problems I guess. Get the drive. You wont be disappointed. Hopefully it will last longer than a year.
