Corsair MP600 PRO LPX 500GB M.2 NVMe PCIe x4 Gen4 SSD - Optimised for PS5 (Up to 7,100MB/sec Sequential Read & 3,700MB/sec Sequential Write Speeds, High-Speed Interface, Compact Form Factor) Black

Adding an M.2 SSD to the PS5 seems essential given the huge downloads for games. I already have Corsair RAM in my iMac so this one seemed trustworthy and a good price for 2TB.The heatsink is a nice, compact design and the packaging is entirely cardboard, no bags or excess cellophane. Opening the PS5's original case is easy, the neat PlayStation logo on the screw is an easter egg worth seeing.Inside the bay the screw and support are provided, but this drive is shorter than the maximum space available so you need to move it down a slot - don't lose the collar! There's no force or effort needed to install the drive.Powering up the PS5 recognised the drive instantly and offered to format it. It tests with a read speed of 6373 - a little short of the claimed read speed but close enough. Moving games to it is fast and everything I have launched from it has run justfine so I think it's up to the task, really!The upgrade is vital if you have PS Plus and a lot of games to stream, but I think the Corsair is worth having for the minimal packing, solid feeling heatsink and easy, fast installation. For me at least, it just works!

Great SSD, easy to install and fast, does the job and has now tripled my PS5’s storage!

Fitted into my PS5 Slim easily enough - hardest bit was getting the lid off the PS5. I fitted it once and obviously didn't seat it right as it wasn't detected, second time worked fine. Pretty surprised as I've fitted a bunch of NVME's to PC's. Remember you do need to put the NVME slot cover back on.Detects as a full 2TB not ~840GB like like the console internal storage. Seems like it writes much faster than the internal storage as moving from internal to M.2 is much faster than the other way (30 seconds instead of 3 minutes in one case) although its read benchmark came back as 6300mbps, I assume that's more a limitation of the PS5 than the drive. Got it on offer at ~£30 cheaper than the Samsung/WDC I was looking at.

Super easy to fit and works straight away! Never delved into console upgrades so 1st time opening up my PS5, but followed a YouTube video and was a 5 minute job with no stress! Increased storage instantly by 2TB!

Only had this a short while but so far it's working a treat 😊I purchased the 2TB stick for my PS5 mainly as it had a heat sink already fitted. Fitting it was simple, though there's plenty of videos on YouTube shoud you get stuck, the only problem I had was getting the PS5 plastic cover to snap back into place! I can't test the speed of data saved as my Internet connection is a slow 70mbs so it'll only download and copy to the drive at that rate. Disc 💿 transfers seem fast and there's no fringing or frame rate freezes during game play to suggest it's having problems accessing game data from the drive 😀Hope this helps 😉

Amazing for extending the storage of your ps5 and it is simple to install it takes literally seconds.

Awesome bit of kit, and cheaper than the ps5 promoted ones.

The build quality of the actual drive is very good. It has a real weight to it, due to the heat sink. I plugged it into my PS5 which was relatively uncomplicated apart from having to go out and buy a Phillips #0 to install the screw.I’ve not played any games off it yet as I’m waiting for them to download. But I have no reason to believe doing so would be a bad experience.One gripe I would have is that the PS5 when recognising the SSD, said it had a less than the advertised read speed (pictured above). Whether this is misleading marketing on behalf of Corsair or the maximum throughput of the IO controller of PS5 I do not know. Either way it’s faster (supposedly ~5,500 Mbps) than the one that’s soldered onto it’s motherboard. Also I don’t understand why the price of any SSD doesn’t scale linearly with capacity. Surely the price per GB is the same whether on a 500gb drive or 8TB or is that wishful thinking?All in all, this is probably the best fastest high capacity drive on the market - although maybe the Sabrent Rocket 4 would have something to say. I have an external SSD which I play my PS4 games off of and now with this Corsair drive I should be set until the next console generation. Who knows by then I might be plugging in an affordable gen5 8TB drive into my PS6.

Llegó en 1 día y en buen estado. Es de muy buena calidad, la instalé en 5 minutos y hasta el momento funciona de maravilla, actualmente juego dead space y corre perfecto. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

This SSD has been a game-changer for my PS5 storage. If you’re tired of constantly managing your game library due to limited space, this SSD is a must-have upgrade. The performance of this SSD is nothing short of spectacular. With sequential read speeds of up to 7,100MB/sec and write speeds up to 6,800MB/sec, the difference is immediately noticeable. Load times have been drastically reduced, and everything runs smoother and faster. Whether I’m jumping into a demanding AAA title or switching between games, the SSD keeps up effortlessly. What sets this SSD apart is that it's optimized specifically for the PS5. Installation was incredibly straightforward—just pop off the PS5 cover, slot the SSD in, and you're good to go. Also with 2TB of storage, I finally have the freedom to keep all my favorite games installed at once, with plenty of room for future releases. No more shuffling games in and out or worrying about space every time there’s a new update or DLC. This SSD has taken my gaming experience to the next level by eliminating those annoying storage constraints.

Excelente funcionamiento

Usaba un HDD externo Seagate y la verdad es que iba bien con los tiempos de carga pero encontré este en oferta.Fácil de instalar, solo necesitas un desarmador Phillips de los pequeños para laptops.Al volver encender el PS5 en automático va detectar el M.2 para formatear y hará un test, a mi medio velocidad de lectura de 6498 MB/s. No me dio el hasta 7100 MB/s que específica la marca pero supera el mínimo de 5500 que pide PlayStation.Lo he probado poco pero todo bien hasta ahora.
