If this is a another Phison E18 reference drive with 176L Micron NAND like the Pro XT, It's impressive it was able to pull ahead of the Firecuda 530. Corsair is also very price competitive for this gen. I'm thrilled with mine.
Thanks a lot Techtesters... Finally my search for secondary game drive is over with this white 2TB model. I got this for 130$ bit high than usual selling price but right now all high end drives are expensive 170$ for 2TB 980 PRO and 180$ for 990 PRO $155+ for KC3000 in my region, I was about to buy ADATA S70 Blade 2TB for 85$ 4 months before, however found your video and dropped it. My friend got S70 Blade 1TB as main boot drive and he suffered a lot. I will be putting this in gen 3 slot only as now, I do not see any fast good drive less than this price even 970 evo plus is 150$ for 2tb variant which has DRAM. (I personally had bad experiences with DRAMless drives, and not going to trust them any time soon even how good they are).
Thank you so much for this review. You can buy this 2TB SSD now for 279,- euro in the Netherlands, I just bought one for my PS5. The price went down to 299,- dollar.
I just got the 4TB version today for my PS5. I had a Sabrent 1TB SSD since I got the PS5 in Dec of 2021. I kept having to delete games so I went ahead and upgraded. The initial format, it stated approx. 6100 speed.
Thank you foir the review, I love how you puit the side by side technical specs in your review. I opted for the Corsair. It is defenatly the best bang for your buck compared to the other top 5 PS5 SSD's. Mainly WD Black, Firecuda, Samsung 980, Kingston Renegade Fury, the ADATA and last but not least the Seabrent. Corsair beats all of them in price and with a solid reputation like Corsairs, it's a done deal.
Great video , just watched a few from your channel and you definitely get my sub , we’ll spoken with out making people think they need the best which always turns out to not be the best
Corsair for the win :D I have MP600 Force Seris and it preforms really well. But did you maybe monitor temps with corsair's heatsink removed and with only heatsink from mb?
I've been looking for a replacement boot SSD for my Crucial P2, and I only recently found out about this one. Here in my area, it's definitely cheaper than the Crucial P5 Plus. This one beats it out as well, so I went ahead and bought this one right away.
Thanks for this review, you helped me with my PS5 SSD purchasing decision. I will keep an eye on this to beast for hit $300 for the 2TB. I wanted the 4TB but umm not for almost $800. I’ll have to stop being greedy. 😕
I fell in love with the presenter watching this video Now a doubt about this ssd is whether the 1Tb version also has a reading speed of 7,100 and a writing speed of 6,800😂😂
Every since I've gotten the Corsair MP600 PRO LPX SSD, I haven't had any problems at all, unlike the Samsung brands. No bricking or not loading games like other ssd's I've tried. The Corsair has God tier abilities! 💯👍❗
I bought the Corsair MP600 PRO LPX SSD because of this video. I built my PC 12 days ago and the the Corsair MP600 PRO LPX SSD just failed on me last night. I lost 60 hours of editing time. I was going to back up soon. I was thinking nothing is going to happen, the drive is new.
@@TechTesters I am going to return the Corsair MP600 PRO LPX since its within the 30 days Amazon policy. FireCuda530 2TB dropped in price from $377 to $319. Its now only $19 more than the Corsair MP600 PRO LPX. For $19 more I would much rather have the Firecuda530 that is proven and comes with a 3-year data recovery program. Love your channel! The information is great! I used to live in Roermond Netherlands. :) Survived a few Carnivals.... I am in Los Angeles now.
So i've been dying to get this answered for a while now.. Most if not all sellers (Megekko, Alternate, Azerty ect ect to name a few) claim and state this M.2 is 'optimized' for PS5 usage. im sitting in my game room with a gaming PC and the lack of a PS5 and wondering, why is it optimized for PS5.. can pc gamers not benefit from the drive? but.. This review video answered all my questions!
I've asked several brands before and none had an answer to the question "What did you do to optimize it for the PS5?". Other than that they promise it works in a Playstation it's pretty much just marketing.
Just to explain further; the reason why it’s “optimised” for PS5 usage isn’t just marketing. The entire reason why it has a smaller heatsink than its predecessor as the video mentions and shows, is because it now fits perfectly into the PS5’s extension M.2 storage slot, whereas the old one stuck out a bit and the extension plate that covered up the slot was unable to be closed because of the size of the heatsink. I know this as a PS5 owner who recently just bought and installed this into his PS5. Nothing wrong with using this on a PC, but you might as well get its predecessor if you want maximum cooling since the larger heatsink will be slightly more helpful.
The PS5 speed is actually lower than what is on the chart. I installed it fresh out of the box and got a 5500 mb/s, reformat and it went down to 5300, reformat again, and now its 5400 mb/s. Maybe I received a dud?
You're expecting a PC built part to perform 100 percent the same...in a conslow. Do you expect also to put a ninja 650 engine into a bicycle frame too? You're getting plenty of performance... Be satisfied.
@@darkshadoku THe MANUFACTURER of the damn ssd. CANNOT help that the conslow's cpu and ram configuration is NOT as powerful as a REAL PC's cpus and ram..to BE able to take full advantage of those ssds specs
@@motoryzen Why so angry? I was just stating facts. The company (Corsair) advertises this SSD as the Ps5 SSD with the mentioned specs. On all the other reviews, videos, posts it shows they are almost all at the constant 6500 speed in a Ps5, which says this is a defective one. Ps5 not as powerful to run the SSD to full spec? The samsung M.2 and Seagate, and a few others run at 6700-7800 on the PS5, looks like it is PLENTY powerful enough if the SSD itself is "good enough" which apparently the corsair is not, or it suffers from a high defective rate.
Very good review. Loved it. I have watched most of your top end ssd's review. I have a question. Ill be buying two 2 TB ssd one for PS5 and another for my work desktop which does heavy program usage such as DaVinci resolve. I'm India, so in summer the weather reaches 40+ degree. Which ssd do you recommend between MP600, KC3000, Renegade, Samsung 980 pro if the pricing differences between them is $10-20 for non heatsink version?
I got xpg s70 blade, you can try that too, but get the made in Taiwan version. I would recommend getting Corsair for workstation and s70 blade for PS5. And get it with the heatsink.
I know this is an older ssd but what about the wd black sn750? I think it as a gift and currently have it in my laptop just curious how it stacks up to the newer ones
Will this work perfectly fine for Desktop? I hope to buy this for my motherboard. and can the heatsink flip it on the otherway around? Since it looks upside down if placed in a motherboard?
Pro XT and Pro LPX seem pretty much the same tbh, the LPX just has a smaller heatsink that fits a PS5. The "Pro" is the older model, I need to check the data but I think that one is a bit slower usually.
