It means it's gen 3 pci-e. The "x4" I believe means 4 Lane pci? Someone correct me on that...
Either way, I have this same exact drive I paid the same exact price for in November as my OS drive for my PC running at pci-e 3 and it's very fast. Thinking about picking up a second one..

I read that you can't simply flop this in your PS5 without a heat sink?
Great deal, though, on a fast, reliable NVMe SSD by a reputable brand.
This is not gen4. That's p5 plus
It means this is the 3rd generation of this type of drive and the x4 is an indication of bandwidth.

It's recommended that you have a heat sink but not a requirement.
