Know before you buy
The MP600 GS uses the standard M.2 2280 form factor, which is compatible with most modern laptops and notebooks that support NVMe drives. We recommend checking your device's manual to ensure it has an available M.2 slot that supports PCIe Gen4 x4.
Yes, this drive is backward compatible with PCIe Gen3 slots. However, you will not achieve the maximum advertised speeds of PCIe Gen4, as the drive will be limited by the bandwidth of your motherboard's interface.
3D TLC NAND stacks memory cells vertically to provide a high storage density. This design offers a reliable balance of performance, endurance, and cost-effectiveness, making it an excellent choice for gaming and everyday high-performance computing.
The MP600 GS is designed as a bare drive without a pre-installed heatsink. It is generally efficient enough to run without one in most laptop environments, but if you are installing it in a desktop with restricted airflow, ensure your motherboard has an integrated M.2 heatsink.
Total Bytes Written (TBW) is a measure of the drive's lifespan based on the amount of data you can write to it. A 600 TBW rating is quite robust for a 1TB drive, meaning you can write a significant amount of data daily for years before reaching the drive's endurance limit.
While this drive meets the PCIe Gen4 interface requirements, Sony recommends a sequential read speed of at least 5,500 MB/s for the best experience on a PS5. Because this drive reaches 4,700 MB/s, it may be slower than the console's internal storage, though it will still function for game storage.
