Pros

Price is about 50-150 dollars cheaper than the top competiors. Works perfectly out of the box, affordable, looks sleek, small form factor. This thing is a beast don’t be fooled by more expensive options. Just buy it.

Got this as a early birthday gift to go into my ps5 fit perfectly and well above sonys specs required. If you're buying it and sticking it in a ps5, it works well.

Installation is easy, you get a great read speed that's imperceptible to the internal storage and you get the full 2tb. Easy install and fast load times on the drive. I am no tech guru and install was simple.

Easy to install and update. Quick install into the ps5. Great for ps5 install in 3 mins and format.



Cons

They advertise a 7,000 read speed. Installed the 1tb version in my ps5, the read speed is only 5433. Less than 5500 recommended by sony for ps5 console.
