Corsair is targeting PS5 users with its MP600 Pro LPX SSD series. These high-end PCIe 4 models are topped with a fairly thin heat sink which allows it to fit into the Sony console and thus expand its storage capacity.
The Corsair MP600 Pro LPX 2TB SSD is a perfect model for expanding the storage capacity of a Sony PS5 console. The flow rates are very high, stable and the thermal release is perfectly controlled by the small heat sink. This model is also entirely suitable for use on PC. It also benefits from a good guarantee, both in terms of duration and endurance.
Strong points
- Very high reading and writing speeds.
- Fairly large SLC cache.
- 5 year warranty.
- Endurance of 1400 TB in writing.
- Exemplary thermal management.
- Sony PS5 compatibility.
Weak points
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude the prices of stores whose the VAT policy is not clear (so-called “gray” stores, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
The Kingston KC3000 2TB SSD excels in its field. It provides high speeds, even higher than those of most of its competitors. The small thermal sticker, however, does not manage to tame this model which heats up quickly and strongly. It is necessary to use a radiator – from a motherboard or third party – to get the best out of it. This also applies to use in Sony’s PlayStation 5.
