Update: Joining the all-time low pricing on the 1TB model above, Amazon is now offering a massive price drop on the 2TB version and you might want to jump on this quick in case it jumps back up. The brand new 2TB WD_BLACK SN850P internal heatsink SSD for PS5 is now down at $129.99 shipped. Regularly $230, this is a giant $100 off the going rate and the best price we have ever tracked. The rest of the details are as follows.
After just debuting earlier this month, Amazon is now offering the very first price drop on the brand new officially licensed WD_BLACK 1TB SN850P NVMe M.2 Solid-State Drive for PS5 at $129.99 shipped. Regularly $150, this is the first solid price drop we have tracked since launch and, subsequently, a new all-time low. You will find WD_BLACK drives ready for both PC and PS5 for less, but this is the latest officially licensed model, complete with the PlayStation logo and the latest tech. Running at up to 7,300MB/s, it has been “tested and certified for your PS5 console so you can keep gaming with confidence.” Gamers can play titles directly from the drive, which is made to slide right into the PlayStation 5’s M.2 slot and carries WD’s latest heatsink tech to help maintain performance and “keep your drive running cool.” Hit up our launch coverage for additional details and head below for more.
As we mentioned above, if you don’t need the officially licensed treatment for your PS5, there are more affordable options from WD_BLACK. In fact, just yesterday we spotted a new all-time low on the WD_BLACK 1TB SN850X heatsink SSD from $80 shipped. While it might not be made specifically for PS5, it will indeed work according to all accounts and delivers the same speeds as the model above alongside compatibility with your PC battlestation.
For something even less pricey than that, check out the price drop we are tracking on CORSAIR’s 7,100MB/s PRO LPX 1TB/2TB Gen4 SSD. Now sitting at the $70 Amazon all-time low, this is another solid choice for PS5 and PC with integrated heatsink tech, an M.2 form-factor and speeds nearly as fast at up to 7,100MB/s. Get a closer look at this deal right here and in our hands-on review.
