You can get a much faster Gen 4 NVMe SSD with 2TB on sale for Under $200 and a faster Gen 3 for under $170 so I would wait for this SSD to go under $140 before buying.
Such as?

Which are compatible with ps5 and recommended?
From https://www.playstation.com/en-us...all-m2-ssd

Which M.2 SSDs can be used with a PS5 console?
It's important that you only use a supported M.2 SSD to expand your PS5 console storage and that meets the following requirements:
M.2 SSD requirements for PS5 consoles
Make sure your PS5 console has the latest system software update before installing a compatible M.2 SSD drive.
PS5 system software update
InterfacePCI-Express Gen4x4 supported M.2 NVMe SSD (Key M)
Storage250 GB - 4 TB
Supported sizes2230, 2242, 2260, 2280, 22110
Size including heat-dissipation mechanismWidth: up to 25 mm
Length: 30/40/60/80/110 mm
Thickness: up to 11.25 mm (up to 8.0 mm from above the board, up to 2.45 mm from below the board)
Sequential read speed5,500MB/s or faster is recommended
Socket typeSocket 3 (Key M)
Using an M.2 SSD with your PS5 console requires effective heat dissipation with a cooling structure, such as a heatsink and a heat transfer sheet. You can attach these to your M.2 SSD yourself, either in a single-sided format, or double-sided format (single-sided cooling structures are an easier fit). There are also M.2 SSDs that have cooling structures (such as heatsinks) built-in. For information on how to attach the heat dissipation mechanism, check the instructions that come with it.
Both single-sided and double-sided M.2 SSD devices are supported.

M.2 SATA SSDs aren't supported.

You should carefully review drive specifications prior to purchase and contact the vendor or manufacturer if you need further information. SIE cannot guarantee that all M.2 SSD devices meeting the described specifications will work with your console and assumes no responsibility for the selection, performance or use of third-party products.

Not all games are necessarily playable with the exact same performance provided by the PS5 console's internal Ultra-High Speed SSD, even where the M.2 SSD device's sequential read speed is faster than 5500MB/s.

The majority of M.2 SSD devices with the above type numbers (M Key Type 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110) and without a built-in cooling structure will fit the PS5 console's SSD slot. However, sizes for cooling structures (like heatsinks) vary greatly. If you are not sure an M.2 SSD or cooling structure (such as a heatsink) you're considering meets the size requirements outlined here, we recommend looking for another product option or contacting the vendor or manufacturer for more information.
If you experience problems while playing a game installed on M.2 SSD storage, move the game to the internal Ultra-High Speed console storage.

I'd pick the P5 Plus off that list. I'd stay away from Inlands unless they were a very good deal. I'd also looks for a heat-spreader or heatsink for the drive.

The SN750 1TB has been as low as $70 recently and can be easily found for $90.

Gen 4 isn't necessarily faster in real world use, especially if you're doing normal PC work or gaming.
