- Do I need a PCIe 5.0 motherboard to use it?
- It works in a PCIe 4.0 slot but runs at PCIe 4.0 speeds. To get full performance you need a PCIe 5.0 x4 M.2 slot.
- Should I buy the heatsink version?
- Yes for desktops and sustained workloads, since the drive runs hot. Check clearance with your motherboard's M.2 cover first.
- Is it worth it over a PCIe 4.0 drive?
- For large file transfers, video editing and heavy workloads, yes. For gaming and everyday use the difference is small.
- Does it work in a PS5?
- It fits the M.2 slot, but the PS5 caps speeds at PCIe 4.0, so most of its advantage is lost. A cheaper Gen4 drive is a better fit.
- What is the endurance rating?
- The 1TB model is rated for 600 TBW with a five-year limited warranty.
- What comes in the box?
- The drive itself, or the heatsink version where specified. No cloning software or mounting screws are guaranteed, so check your board's parts.
