The right plan
Become the benchmark for gamersthe NVMe-SSD are fearsome weapons that rely on their mind-blowing playback speeds to load games at lightning speed. It is no coincidence that the PS5, the latest console from sony, opted for this type of storage. Unfortunately, the latter only offers a handful of GB to install and keep your favorite games, which are becoming more and more demanding in storage. In order to counter this, Sony offers the possibility to gamers to install by their own means, a unit PCIe Gen 4 NVME SSD additional.
the P5 Plus straight from home Crucial seems perfectly adapted to the exercise. Obviously, it fulfills with ease the specifications of sonyproudly displaying up to 6600 MB/s read. The only downside, this Crucial SSD is devoid of heatsink. In order to ensure optimum operation and longevity of the SSDit will be necessary to think of adding an optional heat sink, the M.2 slot of the console being only poorly ventilated.
At this moment, the Crucial P5 Plus NVMe PCIe Gen 4 SSD is promo at the house of Amazon in its declension 1TB. The price therefore falls to €119.99 against more than 170 € usually. This is a great opportunity to boost a beautiful PC gaming or simply expand the storage of its PS5.
To avoid heatstroke
The NVMe Gen 4 SSD are very efficient but such speed comes at a cost. Indeed, the components suffer from a significant heat release that can affect performance, causing a thermal throttling, and in time, damage the components and reduce the longevity of the device. In a tower, this phenomenon is greatly reduced by the space available and the ventilation in place. On the other hand, in the PS5the SSD is confined to a small, poorly ventilated space. It is therefore necessary to install a heatsink when the SSD is not provided with it.
