This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.
The WD SN850X NVMe SSD is highly rated for its fast speed, easy installation, and large capacity, making it a popular choice among both PC and PS5 users. The drive's quick migration of data is notable, while its compatibility with PS5 provides a solution to the limited console storage. However, some users reported that the claimed read speed of 7,300MB/s fell slightly short in practice.
Pros
Cons
Should I Buy It?
Yes. Despite some minor caveats, the WD SN850X NVMe SSD stands out as a high-performance storage solution with impressive speed and capacity. It is a worthwhile upgrade for both PC and console users needing more space, faster data migration, or an SSD to fit in the PS5's expansion slot. Just remember to potentially invest in a heatsink to handle heat dissipation.
