WD BLACK SN850 NVMe SSD (Internal Drive) with Heatsink - 500GB is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 27.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Best PS5 Internal SSD Expansion M.2 Gen SSD Wow this thing fits perfect and works better than expected! Games are reading at a transfer rate of 6930 MBPS. Lightning fast. I transferred 10 games on to this and played them for hrs on in and did a heat test, it was the exact same temp as the motherboard. This is the one to get! Don’t settle for cheaper! WD Heat Sink keeps things cool. Couldn’t be happier with this SSD internal expansion on my PlayStation 5!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from It does the job Very fast speed for transferring and playing, however to play online games for some reason games take longer to load when trying to connect to internet. I tested it with Need for speed Heat, through the SN850 it took way longer to connect to internet than playing it through the internal disk. For offline games I havent had any issues.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Worst SSD for PS5. Low Speed, Super Costly I hate to say this but I am utterly disappointed with WD this time. It's a complete waste of money. Transfer speed is terrible, and it has made the whole gaming experience terrible. Plus its super costly for the offerings
Date published: 2021-09-15
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ridiculously fast, easy to setup! Just received my WD PCIe, and it is amazing, lighting fast easy to setup and install, my PS5 has a lot more storage and space for the up coming titles, I recommend that any one who have a ps5 get one, and make sure it has the heatsink!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Top Notch!!!!! Bought this to expand the memory of my PS5. No compatibility issues as it was immediately recognized and formatted. Games are transferred and moved very quickly. Pricey but I feel like I got what a paid for.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great buy. Will buy more as gifts! I love the fact that it's reading faster than my ps5s primary custom SSD. I mean how much more speed did I really need anyways. Either way more space equals happiness.
