WD_Black SN850P SSD expands Sony PlayStation 5 storage by 8 TB

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 now takes up over 240 GB of storage on a PlayStation 5, but games such as Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Destiny 2 also take up almost 150 GB each. With these amounts, gaming enthusiasts will sooner or later need to upgrade their console's storage.

Sony allows PlayStation 5 users to install a standard M.2 2280 SSD as long as it is connected via PCIe 4.0 and achieves data rates of at least 5,000 MB/s, giving the console far more flexibility than the Xbox Series X with its proprietary memory modules. Western Digital is now taking advantage of this possibility and introducing a variant of the WD_Black SN850P that offers 8 TB of storage - the SSD was previously available with either 1 TB, 2 TB or 4 TB of storage.

Those prepared to pay $999.99 will be able to install more games than ever on a PlayStation 5 without risking longer loading times. The 8 TB version of the WD_Black SN850P is said to achieve sequential read rates of up to 7,200 MB/s and write at up to 6,600 MB/s. The SSD is officially licensed for use in the PlayStation 5 and is equipped with a heat sink and a black cover with the PlayStation logo.

Price and availability

The WD_Black SN850P NVMe SSD for the Sony PlayStation 5 is now available on Western Digital's online store with 8 TB of storage at a price of $999.99, which costs about as much as two PlayStation 5 Digital Editions. This price is actually competitive in terms of specifications, with the 4 TB version currently costing around $350 on Amazon.
