Yottamaster 1TB SSD M.2 PCIe 4.0, Up to 7000MB/s, M.2 2280 NVMe Internal Solid State Drive with 3D NAND Flash, Upgrade Storage for PS5, PC Computer, Laptop, Gaming [Y7000 Pro 1TB]

So far has been reliable, was easy to instal,, the quality felt good in hand, fits right in and has been fast in PS5, so far with the added heat sink it been resistant.

I'm getting pretty decent read and write speeds out of this drive. 2058 MB/s sequential read, and 2753 MS/s sequential write.

Powerful storage, works perfectly, fair price

I have installed this SSD in an M.2 NVMe external enclosure for use as a portable drive. After formatting as NTFS, I ran some tests on several windows PCs with CrystalDiskMark. On a Windows 10 desktop, read speed was 853 MB/s and write was 830 MB/s. On Windows 11 laptops, speeds were 999 MB/s read and 992 MB/s write on an Acer, and 1038 MB/s read and 1020 MB/s write on a Dell. These speeds are about the same, or in some cases, slightly faster than my other 1 TB M.2 external SSD, and approaching the 1250 MB/s maximum for USB 3.2 Gen2. The drive comes with an aluminum heat sink for the top, thermal Silicone film for the top and bottom of the SSD, and a snap-on aluminum bottom plate. These may or may not be usable depending on your application. I cannot say how this will perform if installed in the M.2 slot of a PC, but it makes a very fast little external drive.

Picked up the 2TB version of this drive, Y700 Pro, for my gaming PC. It's excellent so far. While I haven't done any side-by-side testing, it seems to be at least as fast as my WD Black SN770 (gen 4). The package includes everything you need to install this in a PC or PS5 (of course, any tools needed to open up the PC case are not included). It includes a snap-on aluminum heatsink, with 2 thermal pads (Sony recommends a drive with heatsinks in their official installation YouTube video). It also includes a mounting screw, AND a surprisingly decent screwdriver. The screwdriver is long enough that I was able to easily tighten the screw without removing any adjacent components (CPU cooler, GPU). The drive I received was not formatted to any file system. It simply contained appx 1908 GB of unallocated space. For Windows 10 & 11, and PS5, this should NOT be an issue. For Win10/11, you can simply open Disk Management, where you can format and partition the drive into multiple smaller drives, or simply format the drive to a single ~2TB NTFS drive. For PS5, I believe the console will automatically prompt you to format the drive to a filesystem it can use. I have NOT tried this drive in a PS5, I'm just trying to provide some info in case anyone is considering this drive for that purpose. If you're shopping for drives, you probably already know what you need to know. In any case, their official YT video, "M.2 SSD Installation for PS5 Console" gives you a pretty good audio/visual walkthrough of the process. I recommend looking it up.
