Yes. This is currently the best ssd money can by, as of summer 2021. It is faster than the Samsung 980 pro, which has been proven to be even faster than the ps5 internal ssd. In other words, games you run off of this drive will load quicker and stream textures faster(and with less stuttering). The firmware update for ps5 hasn't happened yet. Also of note, ssd's come out all the time. Pcie gen 5 comes out in November. Samsung is said to be working on a gen 5 ssd. They just established the standard for gen 6. Tech is moving very fast. This is indeed the latest and greatest, but it likely will be beaten by November by another drive, in terms of speed. Another thing to note; most drives don't come in 4tb, especially the fastest ones. If you want all that storage, it's probably a good buy. If you only need 2tb, then I would say not to rush into things, because faster drives could be available by the time this is even officially implemented on the ps5. I signed up for the beta firmware and didn't get it. I know you didn't ask for all this, but maybe it will help someone who has the same question. I certainly wouldn't mind one of these bad boys in my PC. or in my ps5.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes it will its gen 4 and comes with heatsink that fits, but if you can your hands on this or something similar you need to sign up for the sony beta m2 ssd program on sonys sight the m2 ssd won't work unless you get the email for the update from them. this is a test program till the reg dl is for everyone in the fall oct nov this year maybe.
