Questions about this product
- Will this SN850X drive work in a PlayStation 5?
- Yes, it's fully compatible with the PS5 and PS5 Slim's M.2 expansion slot. Its read speed of 7300Mbps is well above Sony's recommendation of 5500Mbps. You will need to add a third-party heatsink, as this model doesn't include one.
- What are the actual read and write speeds for this drive?
- The SN850X has a maximum sequential read speed of 7300Mbps and a maximum sequential write speed of 6300Mbps. This makes it a very fast PCIe Gen 4.0 drive, ideal for loading large game files or transferring big video projects quickly.
- Does this M.2 SSD come with a heatsink or do I need one?
- This version of the SN850X does not include a cooling fin or heatsink. For use in a PS5 or a compact PC case with limited airflow, we strongly recommend fitting a separate M.2 2280 heatsink to prevent thermal throttling under load.
