If you’re looking to enhance your PlayStation 5’s storage capacity during the holiday season, there are appealing deals on compatible NVMe SSDs, particularly from Western Digital. The WD Black SN850X 1TB SSD is currently available for only $90 on Amazon, a notable drop from its regular price of $130.
For users considering larger storage options, the 2TB version is on sale for $130, and there’s also a 4TB model available for $270, which normally retails for $380. The SN850X is known for its impressive read speeds of up to 7,300MB/s, well exceeding the PS5’s requirement of 5,500MB/s for optimal performance.
What’s more intriguing is that the 1TB model includes a pre-installed heatsink, essential for installation in the PS5’s open M.2 slot. Although the 2TB variant doesn’t come with a heatsink, it can be easily added with affordable options available online. For those seeking even more storage, the 4TB model also has a heatsink included.
