Sony recommends drives with read speeds of 5,500 or faster. In a pc, in gaming, I can't tell the difference between a gen3 drive at 3500 and my 990 pro at 7300. Transferring between two nvme drives...

Generally no. Most games will prefetch assets before they are needed. Even if a game is badly designed, Windows should learn to prefetch the commonly used files when the game is started. Games...

As a computer engineer, you're spot on. Computer Architecture also suggests that you get an NVME with high TBW or else you can get stuck in games while your teammates keep on writing onto their...

This is the best deal around for a ps5 upgrade and it's not close. The next best is the pny and it's $30 more when you add the Heatsink cover. In for one and thanks.

Well said! A bad NVME is rare period. However with data, is a fail rate of 0.3 v 0.6 worth $30 more? Perhaps. However ,there aren't enough statistics to know which they are yet for these gen 4.

I appreciate that you're trying to help, but I think you're a little bit off here. Game load times are about reading and not writing. And furthermore, 7000 MB/s is 7 GB/s; it takes 15-45 seconds to...
