I purchased this drive at the end of 2022 to swap into my launch model PS5, whose 2TB expansion drive was quickly filling up. I put the 2TB drive into our living room PS5, which my wife and visitors use, and then put this new 4TB drive into my game room console.
The drive works great, and I can not tell any difference in gaming performance between this budget drive and the Samsung that I had before it. If you need an expansion drive for PS5, this one is really hard to beat for the price!
The price with & without the heatsink for these drives used to be a considerable enough difference that I used my own heatsink for both PS5's, but as of the time of this review, it seems it's only a few extra dollars to get one of these INLAND drives with a heatsink included. May as well pay the small extra and get the heatsink with it.
It's been over 4 months since I installed this drive and there's no signs of slowdown yet. The drive has 1.75TB of free space with 52 games installed on it. Some of the games are huge, at over 100GB each, so this drive has been a blessing! I should have enough space between this one and the internal to get me through the generation without having to delete too much at any given time, which is great for those of us stuck with data caps.
