With the PS5's rather piddling 1TB internal storage, we're all used to having to make hard decisions every time we want to install a new blockbuster videogame. Not to mention the games we never want to delete: there's no way I'm deleting Baldur's Gate 3 under any circumstances, despite taking up a whopping 108.8GB on PS5. If you're a Destiny 2 player, the upwards of 100GB required for Bungie's shooter is non-negotiable.
In other words, once you've got a handful of games you never want to delete, you can start to feel a bit hemmed in, which is why SSDs for PS5 are always in high demand during big sales events. Amazon Big Deal Days hasn't thrown up many big discounts on these items, but the one it has—for the 2TB model of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the best PS5 SSD, the Samsung 990 Pro—is well w🐲orth jumping on, especially with Dragon Age: Veilguard on the horizon.
, from its usual Amazon price of AU$297.64. It's pretty rare for this piece of kit to go lower than AU$289, and 2TB is a huge amount of space. You could install Baldur's Gate 3 on it 15 times (if it was possible to install games more than once on PS5, which it's not).This model has the heatsink, which is pretty crucial when you're looking at SSD drives for the PS5. If you buy one without a heatsink you'll have to install a heatsink yourself. That's not super hard, but it is super annoying.
Most importantly, you aren't getting faster speeds than this drive offers, according to our experts: our own tests found 7,462MB/s read and 6,877MB/s write speeds, which is marginally higher than the already high numbers Samsung promises.
