Should You Buy the WD Black SN850, Seagate Fiecuda 530, Samsung 980 Pro or Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus M.2 SSD for PS5? nascompares.com/2021/08/13/ps...
If you have been considering an SSD upgrade for your Playstation 5 now that the feature is enabled (currently in beta and full support coming very soon), then chances are that of all the many PS5 compatible PCIe4 M.2 NVMe SSDs available to buy, that one of four models are at the top of your list. The WD Black SN850 (recommended by Mark Cerny), the Seagate Firecuda 530 (heavy endurance, high speed industry recommendation), the Samsung 980 Pro (widely available, fantastic performance and great value) and the Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus (great price vs capacity and fantastic architecture). These four SSDs have been the ones that have risen above most others, for various reasons, as the hottest picks for your PS5 storage upgrade.

With the PS5 receiving a new update (currently in Beta at time of writing) one of the biggest and most requested features that has now finally been enabled is the M.2 NVMe SSD upgrade slot. It's been more than half a year since the launch of the PS5 and one of the biggest complaints from users (aside from stock levels being painfully low) is that the storage available in the default model is rather small.

Just to put this out there, mine (2 TB *newly PlayStation licensed* version) ran over 6.5 thousand times per second after moving three Call of Duty games from stock memory to this new internal SSD (530GB’s total). Whole thing took about 12 minutes to transfer. I was very impressed - that would have otherwise taken 3 days to transfer (no joke).

I missed out on a great deal, the 2tb version was sold for 179€ + heatsink + 20€ steam wallet, that means it was sold for 149€ (-30 'cause of heatsink and steam), Firecuda and samsung sells their 1tb version for this price, I hope such a deal will come back now that the sn850x is coming >.

I just got this exact drive on Prime Day and it arrived a couple days later. I didn't know it was officially licensed until earlier today. I installed it without cover plate because I heard leaving the plate on increases the temperature by as much as 5°C and decreases airflow. I noticed there are RGB LEDs on the drive that by default flash yellowish orange. I have transparent black plates on my PS5, so I can see those LEDs, so I reached out to WD to see if there's any way to change the color and effect on the drive for PS5. I'm waiting for a response. I'm hoping they say there is, otherwise Sharpie will change the color for me. Lol.

They may "always be on a deal" in the UK but they definitely aren't in Australia. The 1tb from Amazon UK was ~AU$143 with free delivery last night. The Australian 'version' is selling for ~$220. The 2tb is on Amazon US for AU$314 and on Amazon AU for $389. That's the Australia tax!

I got a 1TB one with heat sink for my ps5 a month ago for exactly 200usd, a bit overpriced but it’s been perfect with my ps5 so far But one thing I’ve noticed and can’t make sense of is the fact the writing speed to the sn850 is faster than writing speed to the ps5. I can move 45gb from ps5 to the sn850 in 30 seconds, but it takes 3 minutes to move the same data back to the ps5, I don’t know why.
