T500

Unless you're trying to run your company's database from your lapto;.... Don't worry about it. A PCIe 4.0 or even 3.0 drive is more than fast enough for most people and most use cases. Do be sure to opt for a drive which does NOT have a heatsink - Those will not fit into virtually any laptop (Framew

Whichever M.2 SSD: • Meets your budget. • Is a reputable brand. • Meets the recommended spec to be compatible with the PS5. My recommendations: • WD_Black SN850X w/ heatsink • Seagate Firecuda 530 w/ heatsink • SAMSUNG 990 Pro w/ heatsink • Crucial T500 w/ heatsink

How about the Crucial T500 or Samsung 990 Pro? Both are TLC with DRAM cache. Might be overkill for your use case though, since your slot only runs PCIe 3.0.

I totally agree, something cheap doesn’t mean its good. IT IS CHEAP for a reason! I use Crucial T500 1TB and would recommend it if you’re going for an AM4 rig.

I’d prioritize the OS drive in the slot that has the more direct thermal path to the chassis, tbh, even if that means testing both with the second drive removed first. When I hit NVMe heat weirdness in a thin laptop, the biggest difference was good contact, not just the drive model, so check that th

Most PCIe Gen4 NVMe drives that meet Sony's speed, size, and heatsink requirements are compatible. For the best value in the 1-2TB range, the Crucial T500 and WD Black SN850X are among the strongest options. I built a tool that filters PS5-compatible SSDs and ranks them by value: diskhunt.com

i feel you on being scared to open it up. your AN517-54 has two m.2 slots and they're both pcie gen3, not gen4. that crucial t500 will work but it'll run at gen3 speeds (about 3500mb/s) so you're paying extra for speed you cant use. id grab a gen3 drive like the samsung 970 evo plus or crucial p3 in

Aynı anakartı kullanıyorum, Crucial T500 1TB (Heatsinksiz) versiyonunu öneririm. Anakarttaki siyah plaka SSD soğutucu görevi gördüğü için soğutucusuz versiyonunu kullanabilirsin. (İşlemci soğutucu'nun altında ve ekran kartı'nın üstünde, dalgalı görünümü var.)

Crucial T500 or any other drive with lower power consumption. Many like the WD Black SN7100m but at the time of purchase was way overpriced (almost double the crucial) and one particular review (techpowerup) showed that the low power mode at idle looked like it wasn't being activated on that drive.

I guess, the Crucial T500 is the better choice for your MacBook Pro M4 setup with the Satechi enclosure. Both drives offer near-identical PCIe 4.0 speeds suitable for Thunderbolt 4/USB4: the 990 Pro hits up to 7,450 MB/s read and 6,900 MB/s write, while the T500 reaches 7,400 MB/s read and 7,000 MB/
