Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers commend the drive’s fast 1000 MB/s reads, robust IP65 rating, compact size, and long warranty, noting it integrates seamlessly with PS5 thanks to official licensing. However, they point out that its performance lags behind the console’s internal NVMe SSDs and the lack of disclosed write speeds leaves some uncertainty for heavy write workloads.
