PS5 Heatsink + 2TB SSD

I bought this drive like many others to drop into my ps5.When the beta firmware was released I bought a Samsung 980pro and third party heatsink which has been fine, the drive was capped at 5500MB/s as it needed to be plugged into a PC/laptop and updated/placed into turbo mode to uncap it.I was curious about trying this one though as it comes with the custom heatsink so I handed the other down and bought this one.Installing it is dead easy and should take no more then half hour (even if it's your first time), Don't forget to place the round metal spacer found under the screw inside the drive bay, under the SSD to prevent damage to your drive and/or console. These little fellas run hot under load.This unit is presented well, both the heatsink and drive come in one little box that fits in a letterbox, inside the box each one has its own second box, the SSD also comes in a little rose gold tin.I was disappointed to find that although they come well packed and shouldn't be damaged in transit, the finish on my heatsink was a little shoddy, the metal on the right-hand side was exposed not a lot but enough to catch my eye I will no doubt try correct this later with a black Sharpie. None the less I was disappointed.After reading some of the reviews regarding read speeds, I was pleased to see the ps5 reported the read speed as just over 6500MB/s after format, it would of done my head in a little if this one needed hooking up to a PC to enable the advertised speed too.I've not registered my drive yet to clarify as I've been too busy testing games but it's supposed to come with a 5 year warranty I will edit this review when I have more details.(Edit:) The warranty is 5 years or 700TB written whichever comes first, when registering it on the sabrent website you will need the model number and serial number of your drive.These can be found on a little sticker attached to each box so keep it safe.The heatsink even comes with a 2 year warranty but I'm unsure what could possibly go wrong with it.From what I've just seen on my orders page Amazon offer 2years support on this product too.(Edit:) Amazons 2 year support also covers drive failure (excluding accidental damage), I also received a £10 voucher for my heatsink paint finish (5* customer service as usual).I paid £159.99 for the SSD/heatsink and with the exception of the poor quality finish on the heatsink I'm happy with the purchase (so far).I moved my existing games (6or7 games) from the internal SSD to the nvme around 360GB of them and it took maybe 6/8 minutes, by the time I put my screwdriver back in my tool bag and tidied the box away for safe keeping it was finished.I've been playing Riders Republic, Dirt5, AC Valhalla and Far Cry 6 this afternoon and performance has been on par with the internal SSD and the 980pro.No difference really, well none the stood out to me.. smooth gameplay, fast loading times.I think that about covers everything, if I think of anything else I'll edit it later on.Hope this review helps

Purchased for my sons PS5 as his main 🎄 present. He was struggling with internal memory as PS5 games have got so large. Absolutely stunning in build quality. Great instructions Supplied, fitted perfectly with no tools needed as screwdriver supplied 👌🏻.I personally gave the PS5 a deep clean while out of my sons boy cave. Using powerful air blower/domestic hoover. Fitted memory, then heat sink. Refitted covers. Plugged in, powered up. PS5 requested memory expansion was formatted. Clicked yes & job ✅.Left my son to transfer games from internal memory to expansion. Again a simple two click operation.No more deleting games due to insufficient storage space. Yes it’s not a cheep upgrade but a full proof one with option to remove to switch into PC or other console in the future 🤙🏻

Has worked very well for 6 months or so on ps5 I'm pleased

Gr8 quality easy to install, fast and reliable.

Not only is it simple to install and get an extra 1Tb of space in minutes but the heat sink it comes with works brilliantly! I noticed before the install that after a long gaming sesh (6-8 hrs+) the PS5 was pretty hot towards the back of the console. Now that the heat sink is installed I would say that it's reduced the heat given off by about 80-95% depending on how long it's been on. I'm no expert but I would imagine this will help to increase the life of our PS5 😁

Got this for PS5 like 4 years ago and still going strong to this day. Speeds were somewhat slower than 7000Mb/s, realistically about 5400Mb/s while installing on Playstation. Has it's own unique heatsink too. Fits PS5 Pro as well.

Now this maybe a bit of overkill for a PS5, but considering my PC has not been on for years and a new build has stalled mid build, why not?The make is epic to start with.I think this is about mid range for them now, as some totally crazy ones are out now, and it is 4TB.So, I moved everything from console over.I used a USB game drive to move some games over. That was last considering the speed on the donor drive.I downloaded a bunch more, so no more play delete as you want to get something else, install again later....This just gives me the freedom now.Games seem fast to load (I am currently on Atomic Heart, and that was slow to load on console SSD also) so it's not getting a fair go yetThis will live on, until maybe it gets ripped out to go on my PS6!

I've watched alot of videos online for the best ssd for the ps5 and the majority of them said the sabrent comes out on top each and every time. So I decided to get the 1tb ssd with heatsink combo, I was so worried about taking the side panel off the ps5 and breaking the pins off inside but being gentle I did it.Now the installation was so easy just follow the instructions and away you go. One thing I will say tho don't use the included screwdriver, it's just not strong enough and you might strip the screw. So far so good 👍 top marks sabrentWould I buy again... yes I would.
