Great comparison. Just bought a WD Black 2 TB. Cheap no but all these are what within a second or so of each other. So I don't see going wrong with any of these. I guess budget would be your deciding factor.

I like rooting for the underdog too! This was really interesting to see. Glad to see the cheapest one beat out some of those expensive ones in these races.

HOO-RAH! COMPLETE GEEK!! I am really diggin your channel fellas! I rely heavily on games when I'm having a bad PTSD day (Sorry for saying it. Games just take my away from my mind for a bit, if that makes sense) and I've recently ran out of space on my ps5, which my wife was kind enough and lucky enough to buy me a year ago. I've been trying to research m.2s for the ps5 so I can update my games. You have no idea how much this is helping me out! I love the tests you dudes are doing! Keep it up! You've got a subscriber for life!

Great job, guys. How about actual multi-hour stress tests when the drives are consistently heated up? i.e., We have seen the winners of the sprint, but how about the marathon? It's worth considering.

Samsung seems to be the most reliably fast out of all of them between this test and the last.

Wow, the first ps5 ssd I got was the 1tb cs3040, it was great and cheap, it did the job, recently` upgraded to the 2tb sn850 which is also great but can’t argue with results. The pny was great budget option that competes with the premium brands.

great video! I love your explanation, it is help a lot for future buying.

Great video. This is what I was looking for. Have you guys compared the internal drive compared to SSD expansion drive?

Can you guys do a test on which would last the longest if took to the breaking point or which is the coolest in terms of heat management???😊

Comment before video finished, seems like its all about longevity/build quality!! Good job guys

have u compared against nextorage, addgame, phantom venom, sabrent or xpower yet? i would like to see if they are worth a buy over the expensive ones. I would love to see how msi would stack up as well

Wow! You guys are amazing! I appreciate all the work! Great job to you and your team! This is really helpful! ❤

You need to do a video only comparing the 4tb ssd's do the 2 most expensive with some that you built yourselves that would be a great video comparing the bigger drives

Great video awesome test results

Watching it now, I think its good for NOW. But i would like to know if it will hold up against like Dead Space or FF16 when they come out. Because those are current gen only

I have an all dust factory in my house. Pets and kids, husband with old toys. All joking aside, I mean $180 savings in my pocket 🤷🏼‍♀️ it’s super tempting.

Did you ever do the heat dissipation video ?

Are these for playing PlayStation remotely on your laptop or actually plugging into and playing on your PS5?

I got a xpg gammix blade 2tb with heat sink for 210$. You guys should make a video on that

Really interesting results. When you have it slowed that much it's really a matter of half a second difference between the name brands and this cheaper alternative.

Something to know about using slower ssds, is that some games utilize a faster SSD to render things. That's where you will see a true difference, loading times don't matter too much as its by seconds only.

@CompleteGeekTV

Жыл бұрын

Sony claims any SSD going in the PS5 requires a heat sink although I’m not sure the system itself would actually be able to tell. The thing is that the heat sink pull heat in a certain direction and keeps it off of the components in the ps5 more so you would probably run the risk of breaking the Ps5 fairly quickly if you don’t use one. If you are buying a drive without one you might as well get one since you can find some on Amazon for super cheap.

@dmo848

It will jus turn off from getting 2 hot if no heat sink is installed

the difference is the Firecuda will last twice as long and take double the punishment.

Got the 1tb firecuda for £108😶‍🌫️

And u must use them both and not use them

Mafia definitive is a pain to load.

Wow, so it's either Samsung and the cheapest SSD, man it's only milliseconds difference.

I watched this 2 times 🎉

Lame comparison. At least stream actual gameplay so as to demonstrate it's data streaming abilities. Quoting a review on Amazon: "Despite being advertised as PS5 compatible, with theoretical max sequential read speed of 5600 MBPS, actual performance in PS5 is around 3800 MBPS, which causes a few PS5 games to have slower performance. Right now it is just a fancy External storage expansion equivalent in a m.2 form, but not quite PS5 ready" "What can I say but it failed 3 months later and I lost my data. Samsung m.2 are better." " 2.0 out of 5 stars Transfer speed slowed to a crawl during a large file transfer Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2021 Capacity: 4TBStyle: SSDVerified Purchase I bought this to use as a replacement for another drive that was nearing capacity so I started by transferring all the stuff from the old drive which was about 1 TB of data. At some point past the halfway mark, the transfer speed dropped from around 1,500 MB/s (the advertised speed) to less than 10 MB/s. When moving such a large volume of data, 10 MB/s would take a very long time. I don't have the ability to determine why this happened so I don't know if it's because the write cache filled up or it was overheating or what. Either way, it's not useful to me if I can't get my data on to it in a reasonable amount of time. For those dealing with smaller sets of data, the drive may perform well. But for me who works with large sets of photo and video, it's a no-go."

Nice

I hope I win the SSD

pny 2140 is the cheapest, and still compatible, but the speed is below ps5 recommendation but its work!

WOAH!!! What on earth! well skip that one then! this video is over almost 2 years old but typically prices go down over time! but really the point was almost every ssd we have tested so far is within a millisecond's difference. We filmed the tests in 120 frames per second and still had to slow down the footage and go frame by frame just to see a difference. So we came to the conclusion that in real world scenarios any compatible ssd should be just fine! Thanks for checking out the video by the way!
