FULL Crucial P5 Plus vs PS5 Internal SSD BREAKDOWN RESULTS - nascompares.co...
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. Each drive is pretty much the fastest and most capable drive from their respective brands and although there are a few close ones (such as the Aorus 7000s, ADATA Gamix S70 and PNY CS3140), they have not been as widely embraced at these four SSDs.

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.

Any Chance you can try Inland Performance Plus SSD from MicroCenter? Like to get your opinion on it running it with the taller Heat Sink and if you think the Temperatures are in the Stable range.

Great video! Where did you get that custom shell?

[@nascompares]

Cheers for watching. Just put together a guide on it. Fairly low cost and I am adding this to the end of a video coming soon - nascompares.com/custom-ps2-design-build-for-the-playstation-5/

[@gibbbee20]

You do such a great job reviewing all the hardware and go into so much detail that we want to see. Appreciate all the hard work man, best of luck with everything :D

[@gn1us]

Any chance of adding more recommend heat sinks please? None of these are in stock or have a decent delivery time. Not on Amazon anyway.

[@leonprez231]

Hi there. They are available on ebay. Cheaper than amazon too

[@coveyking]

whichever is cheapest can can fit into the ps5. for the majority of the SSD. The drive won't write much over its lifetime, many people even do without one;

The Crucial crucial performance test!
