Selecting the appropriate M.2 SSD for a PlayStation 5 involves carefully examining Sony’s specifications. This process will ensure size and technical compatibility with the built-in PS5 storage expansion slot.
The size of the M.2 SSD is a crucial determinant. PlayStation 5 accommodates the following dimensions: width up to 25mm, and length of either 30mm, 40mm, 60mm, 80mm, or 110mm. However, some experts recommend 80mm (2280), which best fits the console’s design.
The interface for the M.2 SSD should be PCIe Gen4x4, guaranteeing lightning-fast data transfers that can keep up with the gaming demands of the PS5. Sequential read speed is another essential feature to consider. The SSD should have a minimum read speed of 5500MB/s to ensure smooth game playback and quick load times.
Last but certainly not least, heat management is another significant aspect. The M.2 SSD is bound to generate heat during use, and PlayStation 5 requires an SSD with a built-in cooling structure. If an SSD does not have this, a separate cooling component can be attached, but it must fit within the console’s size constraints listed above.
