Storage is one of the key problems with Sony’s latest PS5 and with the upcoming titles such as Horizon Forbidden West, Elden Ring, Gran Turismo 7, and God of War: Ragnarok, it is vital that you upgrade your console’s storage in order to install and store all of the titles. CORSAIR has taken note of this and has launched a brand-new M.2 Solid State Drive called MP600 PRO LPX which is targeted at the PS5 and is available in capacities from 500GB up to a colossal 4TB.
Since the CORSAIR MP600 PRO LPX is built especially for the PS5 console, it is also specially built in a compact form factor so that it easily fits inside the PS5 and comes with a heatsink as well to keep it cool during your extensive gaming sessions. CORSAIR details that the MP600 PRO LPX is capable of optimal performance in the PS5 right out of the box. Due to its size, it does not take too long for installation and does not void the console’s warranty as well since the SSD fulfills all requirements of the PS5 expansion as detailed by Sony.
Beneath the low-profile heatsink, the MP600 PRO LPX boasts extreme storage performance with up to 7,100 MB/S sequential read and 6,800 MB/S sequential write speeds for phenomenal read, write, and response times. It uses high-density 3D TLC NAND and Dynamic SLC NAND cache, and excellent storage endurance to last a console’s lifespan and beyond. It is backed by CORSAIR’s comprehensive five-year warranty as well. Stated and usable capacities differ – 4TB = 3.64TB usable, 2TB = 1.82TB usable, 1TB = 0.91TB usable and 500GB = 465GB usable.
