The Best Black Friday SSD Deal for Your PS5: 2TB for Under $100 (Updated)
The Amazon Black Friday Sale has officially started, and currently there are a couple of 2TB PS5-compatible solid state drives that you can score for under $100: the Nextorage Japan 2TB SSD for $99.99 and the Silicon Power XS70 2TB SSD for $97.97. Both of these SSDs are fast enough to exceed the specs of the PS5's stock internal SSD and come with a preinstalled heatsink that does a fine job of keeping things cool.
Black Friday Deal: Nextorage 2TB PS5 SSD with Heatsink for $99.99
This SSD fulfills all the requisites that make it PS5 compatible. It boasts sequential read and write speeds of 7300MB/s and 6900MB/s, which is much higher than the minimum recommendation of 5,600MB/s. It also includes a robust double-sided aluminum heatsink that's preinstalled on the SSD. This is much better than some of the cheaper SSDs that only include thin graphite heatspreaders.
