Why did I choose the Samsung 990 Pro SSD?
I’ve been mulling over a decent SSD upgrade for myPlayStation 5Digital Edition for a while, and after managing to get a great bargain on a Samsung 980 Pro during the summer Prime Day sales, which I added to another PS5, I was looking for something similar.
That’s why this deal has stood out for me – the 990 Pro has even faster read speeds.
When choosing an SSD card for the PS5, you need to keep a few things in mind. As well as compatibility - it needs to be a PCIe Gen 4 M.2 NVMe SSD card to fit in the dedicated slot underneath the console’s faceplate. It also needs a heatsink for heat dissipation, otherwise the storagecan get too hotand cease to function correctly.
Sonyrecommends a card with a minimum data transfer speed of 5,500 MB/s, so the Samsung 990 Pro is ideal as its read speeds are much higher - 7,450 MB/s. Indeed, it’s even faster than the internal storage inside the console.
You can add SSD storage from 250GB to 4TB in size, so 2TB is an ideal mid-point and, if you consider that an average PS5 game is around 35GB in size, it allows for more than 50 extra games to be installed. The internal PS5 SSD has about 667GB of space available to the user, so can only store around 18 games in total.
Remember, you will need to be a Prime member to make use of the deal. It’s free for new subscribers for 30-days though, so well worth signing up to.
