This is asked in every thread I swear. This will not work in a PS5 because it is not a gen 4 drive.
I have the Henix Gold in 1gb in my laptop and a 512 in my desktop. The are the most efficient and cool running chips out there. I don't even use a heat sink in my lappy. I have run a few bench-tests on both systems, they score at the top of the chart(97th percentile). Plus just look at all the reviews or lack of bad reviews Wink

Kingston Gen4 @ $185 was a better deal. Kingston is not much behind Hynix and Crucial in quality.

Hynix is a manufacturer for many brands. Good price if you need to upgrade.

$160 vs $185 is a pretty big price difference for incremental gains if the end user mainly cares about size and price

Depends on what you're upgrading. If you've got a PCI 3 laptop with a smaller or slower drive, this is a great upgrade, at a great price.

Certainly the leader in Gen 3 (except for offshore warranty handling). Forced Samsung to update to Evo Plus to keep up.

But with Gen 4 sticks able to work in Gen 3 PCIE and with much faster flash memory, not sure this has an advantage without a more significant discount than this. Should be looking for clearance sales at this point.

Buying a Gen 4 now will be more future proof if you ever change your computer or motherboard.

I wish the reviewers would also measure the Gen 4 SSDs in Gen 3 boards to see what speeds they get.

Has SK Hynix fixed the MacOS incompatibilities with its firmware that was causing the Macs to crash or refuse to install?

This was the ideal option for laptops, due to it's low power consumption

This is the top of the line gen 3 nvme. Hynix is literally the second margest chip manufacturer in the world (behind samsung). Look at the chips on your graphics card, ram, and solid state drives. Chances are that a lot of them are made by Hynix.

People will bust over TeamGroup trash, but a really smokin deal on a top of the line ssd? Not so much I guess…

Sad.

I'm returning the WD Blue that I just bought on a "deal" for this bad boy. I already have one as my main, and the TeamGroup drive I bought pulled an Amber Heard after 6 months exactly. This drive smokes both of those drives in speed and reliability.
