Bought this for about $120 in late-January of this year, but that was because I bundled it with other parts on Newegg.

I forget the name of the subreddit but it's a reputable one that has a flowchart for the tiers of SSDs and this is considered one of the higher tiers.

Interesting chart.

I had no idea my PS5 Nextorage (or the MP600 Pro I recommended to a friend entirely based on price) was considered "high end."

But with that said, this (in 2024 anyway) seems like a pretty good deal if you consider this one a like-for-like drive.

all these Phison E18 drives are the Nextorage rebranded which is owned by Phison they just make them use different firmware

Bought! Thanks!

Just have to figure out how to deal with the heat sink for optimal PS5 installation.
Maybe I'm an idiot but I can't see a clear answer on which (graphene and/or aluminum) you should use when installing in a PS5.

If it fits you're good to go. I haven't seen the details on this one but keep in mind the PS5 space limitations. Some heat sinks are just too big for it
