Phison E16 controller w/ DRAM and 96L Micron 3D TLC NAND. PCIe 4.0x4 generation rated at 5,600 MB/s sequential read and 4,300 MB/s sequential write. 3,600 TBW endurance rating.

Price looks pretty good for a higher end NVMe disk with a good controller and a 5-year warranty.

It will technically work but the speeds are under Sony's recommendations. The CS3140 or other ssds may be better options.

Edit, you'll also need a heatsink

I had ordered the b&h deal earlier today but then quickly changed my mind and cancelled the order as I decided that the price was to close the WD Black deal going around at $170. This drops the price just enough to make it worth saving a few dollars in exchange for a little less performance compared to the WD Black deal.
Granted nvme sales keep dropping prices so I bet in 2 weeks I will regret this purchase.

Happened to me last week. I purchased a SteelSeries headset from Amazon that was on sale for $190, 2 days later it dropped to $140EEK!. I wind up changing my mind and cancelling the order but I wish more companies would implement a price match guarantee

Not too bad for mid range Nvme 4. it's $80 in TB. For comparison, the P5 Plus, high end Nvme 4, was $150 for the 2TB and $88 1TB.

Via Walmart the 1TB isn't on sale & only $10 cheaper than the 2TB

It's $80 on Amazon (they claim 14% off) while the faster PNY XLR8 CS3140 1TB on Amazon is $90

Just FYI.

Edit: I'm tempted by the 1TB's for my motherboards one Gen 4. NVMe slot then use my 1TB in one of the two Gen 3 slots for games/colder storage. But as people have said seems like prices are dropping, hoping it won't be long until a quality full speed Gen 4 1TB is more like $70-$75. then even scoop up a 2TB Gen 3 for closer to $50-$60.

Not a good price for the speed you get 5,600 Read and 2600 write speed is not good for 150 bucks you might as well add $20 and get at least 7,000 read and 6,500 write speed

Yep, had this exact model in my PS5 for over a year, passes the SSD validation and has run with no issues.
