Modern video game libraries require an astonishing amount of space these days, and between your Call of Duties and Red Dead Redemptions, it’s easy to run out of storage on your PS5. For Prime Day 2023, you can give your PS5 a quick upgrade in this department with the Crucial P5 Plus, a Gen 4 NVMe solid-state drive that’s available in either a 1TB or 2TB model.
These SSDs are PS5-compatible and come with an integrated heatsink, allowing you to easily install games and save video highlights on them. At Amazon, the 1TB Crucial SSD has been discounted by 50% to just $50, and the 2TB version is only $95. This is one of the cheapest SSD deals available right now, although the Samsung and WD Black NVMe SSDs are also worth considering.
The Crucial offering meets Sony’s minimum requirements with its read/write speeds of up to 6,600MB/s, and if you need a walkthrough on how to install it, you can check out our guide on how to install a M.2 SSD into your PS5.
If you’re planning to use this in your PC, it’s compatible with Microsoft DirectStorage to help you load games and assets faster. There’s also a five-year warranty on this, so you’ll be covered in case anything goes wrong in that time period. It is slightly slower than Samsung’s SSD, but this is by a slim margin.
