> 3 dayCan’t go wrong with this SSD at all. Two days after receiving my PS5 I installed this (easily done in five minutes). Games load just as quickly and run as smoothly from this as they do from the factory storage. 2 terabytes worked out fine for me. Turns out this is the SSD eventually recommended by Sony. Fast, fast storage.

> 3 dayThis SSD at least for this capacity would make for a very fast boot drive or spare drive for games. With the direct storage API coming to DX12 soon these drives are a must for lightning fast load times and texture streaming. This drive will probably be one of like 2 or 3 drives approved out of what is out so far to work with the PS5 as well, though that feature at the time of writing has yet to be implemented. To take advantage of the speed of this drive you will need either a B550 or x570 motherboard for AMD processors or a Z590 motherboard for 11th gen Intel processors. The speed is comparable to Samsungs 980 Pro and is currently much faster than like 90% of current PCIE gen 4 drives most of which cap out around 4-5k write speed where as this is more like 7k write. Overall these drives are future facing as they will be what is ideal for the PS5(whenever Sony decides to unlock this feature) and for the upcoming Direct Storage API which will bring PS5 speed load times and texture streaming to PC.

Greater than one weekAnd I thought going from HDD to SSD was insane, but moving from my budget SSD to a high quality NVMe made such significant differences that it quickly became the best recent purchase I made for my PC. My OS boots lightning fast, my games launch fast and load quick and its left me with more than enough storage that I wont ever get passed 70% capacity used.
