The SK in SK Hynix literally stands for South Korea, and just because something is produced or based in China doesn't mean it's unreliable. Good job hamster.

But to answer your question, yes SK is one of the most respected names when it comes to SSDs.

Edit: I have been corrected, SK stands for Sun Kyong.

if you actually delve into technological history; american business that were sold off to asian markets decades ago while america focused on, who knows what. the asian companies thrived and outcompeted america in their own inventions sadly enough

hynix was founded from the technology that intel abandoned from their development

taiwan is practically over in china for christ sakes so whatever narrative you are giving off associating the ethnicity of the product being a negative factor of a ssd it's beyond me; and probably you too

Do I need a heat shield to use with this SSD for a PS5? Seems like some of the Samsung ones come with a heat shield already built in.

Seems like the drive does run hot according to the reviews so I'd use a heatsink.

So this Gen 4 runs hot and the old Gen 3 was cool and low power.

That is good as I have some of the Gen 3 and won't buy this.

The Hynix Gold (Gen 3) is currently $150. Is it worth the xtra $20 if my computer is only gen 3? I won't benefit from the extra speed.

I have the P-31 and it runs fairly cool in a laptop (high 30s to low 40s). I think the P-41 would definitely be higher from what I've read.

Both are hotter than the older samsung I removed though....

PS - Looks like newegg has the samsung 970 evo + for $150 too, but I'd get the P-31 which is what I did a couple of months ago....

No, no benefit.
Your drive will run at the reduced speed of your interface.

Amazing price but the vast majority of people won't notice a difference between this and cheaper drive. If you have a PS5 and need a drive this is a no-brainer.

Go with Gen 4 for 20$ difference if you plan to upgrade in near future.
