XPG GAMMIX S70 BLADE - PCIe Gen4 Solid State Drive (SSD) - Up to 7400/6800 MB/s Read/Write - Aluminum Heatsink - Gamers, Creators & PC Builders - Compatible with PS5, Laptops & PCs - AGAMMIXS70B-1T-CS

I originally sat on getting an SSD because they were so pricey. I get the 1TB SSD aren’t to steep in price but I feel like with PS5 and next gen 1TB isn’t enough and will take all that space up quickly. Especially if you are a gamer like myself. Plus I had a external 2TB hard drive(from the PS4 generation) granted you could only play PS4 games on it and store PS5 games but not play them. I finally pulled the trigger seeing the 2TB XPG Gammix S70 Blade was on sale for $249. Had some Christmas money to spend so out of pocket I paid maybe $125. This thing is a beast and worth my money if you ask me. I didn’t use the heat sink that comes with the SSD and instead opted to get the MHQJRH M.2 2280 SSD Heatsink, Double Sided Heat Sink With Thermal Silicone Pad For PC/PS5. The only part that was difficult was putting the heatsink and SSD together and installing it into the PS5 and even that isn’t very difficult. There are a lot of how to videos online and even on Amazon. The heatsink I mentioned has a video of someone installing that heat sink with a SSD and I went off that. Worked like a charm and I was able to install it my first try. When you boot your PS5 your prompted with a message saying you have a M.2 SSD and it needs to be formatted. I formatted it and I was given a read speed of 6270. Which is 700 more than the SSD on your PS5 motherboard. When I went to settings and checked the storage it was there with my external hard drive and it said I had 2.05TB free. Good to see that you actually get 2TB and a tad bit more. First thing I did was transfer games from SSD to SSD. I took Horizon Zero Dawn moved it from internal to the newly installed SSD and it transferred in 10 seconds. No joke 10 seconds. Than I took The Uncharted Collection from my external hard drive and transferred it to the new SSD that one took a bit longer due to the external not being no where near as fast as a SSD but even that took about 7-10 minutes. Last I took three games from my library Hollow Knight, Darksiders 3 and Far Cry 6 and installed them(not transfer actually install from scratch) and those three games took about 20 minutes tops. That being said this is a affordable SSD and it is legit in speed. I played Horizon Zero Dawn and Far Cry 6 and load times were identical to the mother board SSD. Can’t complain I’m a happy camper with my purchase. I now have the internal SSD of 667GB with a 2TB extra storage installed along with a external hard drive giving me 4.6TB of space. Which I personally think is more than enough to last the PS5 generation. That being said do yourself a favor and get this product it’s worth every penny if you ask me. Hardest part is the installation process but even than, it’s not that difficult.

For a budget NVME drive its great. Honestly i was on the edge ordering this thing because of the following on the product page "This SSD is not compatible with Mac. Additional parts may be required to use on Mac system.". This statement is confusing and should be removed. I did all kinds of research before ordering this ssd to see why in the world it would not be compatible with the Mac. Thankfully the statement is wrong. My best guess is people are confusing and ordering this for their mac and expect to replace their internal mac ssd (which is proprietary and you can not change) and end up returning the drive. So yes if your computer/mac doesn't have a nvme slot then of course this will not work but it is, in fact, compatible with a mac. I just received my m1 mac mini I ordered the smallest ssd space apple offers (256GB) because apple charges way to much for upgrading the storage (i think ~$800 for 2TB). So i wanted increase my storage with a Thunderbolt 3. So i ordered an OWC Envoy Express Thunderbolt 3 SSD enclosure. I did send a message to adata about their statement it not being compatible with Macs and explaining to them what i was planning to do (external thunderbolt 3 enclosure) and they pretty much sent me a caned response that the drive is made to be directly on a motherboard. I didn't listen and ordered it anyways. There is no reason any nvme ssd shouldn't work correctly unless it has a firmware issue. It not working didn't make any sense at all. So anyways i received the drive and its working great. The speeds aren't as fast as advertised but that was expected as its not a limitation of the drive but of the owc enclosure. So purchasing a more expensive ssd would have been a waste of money because i can't even max out this ssd. Its not as fast as the internal mac ssd but close enough where most people aren't going to notice a difference. The slc cache is pretty big on this drive so your not going to see big speed decreases very often unless your pushing some huge files to drive often (say like VMs or something like that). The speed does decrease quite a bit once the slc cache gets exhausted but recovery is very quick. I'm very happy and its a great price for a 2TB SSD. One thing to note if you are using on a mac the only pain is going to be that your not going to be able to use adata software suite (its only made for windows). Before i used the ssd i popped it into my windows desktop but it was running the latest firmware. I think you could update it if you have a windows PC with an external thunderbolt connector but i'm not 100% sure because i haven't tried it. To bad they don't have the software available for mac.

Es de fácil instalación, lleva incluido un disipador de calor que aunque básico es efectivo y la mayoría de los Ssd te los hacen comprar aparte a este precio, es muy rápido y en dos meses de uso no tuve problema.

XPG-Gammix S70 1TB - sehr schnell, alle Werte der Werksangaben werden eingehalten, aber wird viel zu schnell heiß min. 64 Grad bei intensiver Nutzung über 70 Grad - dann Geschwindigkeitsregelung / Hitze sogar mit Aktiv Kühler nur knapp unter 60 Grad bei Nutzung

Excelente para PS5, carren genial los juegos y fácil de instalar y montar en la consola

I bought this item for my ps5. It works great. Its a great deal from amazon ae, for only 440dhs because its a open box, but the great things is it works perfectly on my ps5. Thanks amazon.

Üç buçuk aydır kullanıyorum. Lenovo l340 IdeaPad gaming laptop için aldım. Hafıza 256gb idi. Doğal olarak hafıza bir süre sonra yetersiz gelmeye başladı. Tek slot olduğu için bununla değiştirmek zorunda kaldım. Bilgisayar pcie 3.0 desteklediği için Max. verim alamıyor olabilirim ama orijinalinden kat kat daha yüksek okuma hızı alıyorum. Yazma hızı daha yüksekti 2200/3100 diye hatırlıyorum. Hatırlarsam foto eklerim daha sonra. Aksi bir durumla karşılaşmadım. Ürün bayağı iyi dolayısıyla ben de bayağı iyiyim.
