Corsair 2TB SSD PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe M.2 2280
The PS5021-E21T controller and TLC NAND deliver 7000 MB/s reads and 6500 MB/s writes, meeting all PS5 M.2 requirements with a low-profile aluminum heatsink to prevent throttling. The DRAM-less design keeps costs down while hardware encryption and a 1200 TBW endurance rating add long-term value. Best for PS5 owners who want to expand storage for large game libraries without paying a premium for a heatsink-equipped Gen4 drive.

概要
The 30-Second Version
The MP600 Elite is a DRAM-less Gen4 drive that punches way above its weight. It's the easiest PS5 upgrade you can buy, and a solid pick for PC gamers who want speed without the Gen5 tax.
Pros & Cons
長所
- Blazing 7,000 MB/s reads, basically maxes out Gen4 95th
- DRAM-less design that doesn't feel like a compromise 95th
- PS5-ready with included heatsink, no extra purchases needed 86th
- 1200 TBW endurance and 5-year warranty, solid peace of mind 84th
短所
- DRAM-less means heavy sustained writes can still dip
- No hardware encryption on the PS5 version
- Price swings from USD 405 to USD 474 depending on vendor
- Portable use is a weak spot, this is a desktop/console drive

Performance
The sequential numbers are right at the top of what Gen4 can do, and our database puts this drive's speed in the top tier. Random performance is no slouch either, with 1,000K read IOPS and 1,200K write IOPS. The surprise? How well the PS5021-E21T controller holds up without DRAM. Usually DRAM-less drives choke under sustained writes, but this one keeps its composure. The aluminum heatsink helps, especially in a PS5 where airflow is limited. Don't expect Gen5 speeds, but for Gen4 this is about as good as it gets.

vs Competition
The WD Black SN850X is the obvious rival, and it's a toss-up. The SN850X has DRAM and slightly better sustained write performance, but the MP600 Elite counters with a lower price and a PS5-ready heatsink out of the box. The Crucial T500 is another strong option, often cheaper and with similar real-world speeds. If you're on PS5, the MP600 Elite's included heatsink makes it the easiest choice. If you're on PC and do heavy video editing, the SN850X's DRAM might be worth the extra cash. The Samsung 9100 PRO is Gen5, so it's in a different league entirely, and the Kingston FURY Renegade G5 is more of a budget play.

Value & Pricing
At USD 405 to USD 474, the MP600 Elite sits in a weird spot. The lower end is a decent deal for 2TB of top-tier Gen4 speed. The higher end? You're flirting with Gen5 territory. Newegg has the best price right now, and that's where you should buy if you're set on this drive. But if you see it creeping toward USD 470, hold off. The WD Black SN850X and Crucial T500 often undercut it at that point.
詳細情報
Overview
The Corsair MP600 Elite is a no-nonsense Gen4 drive that nails the basics. You get 7,000 MB/s reads and 6,500 MB/s writes, which is basically the ceiling for PCIe 4.0, and it does it without a DRAM chip. That's the headline: this is a DRAM-less drive that behaves like a flagship. For PS5 owners, it's a drop-in upgrade that clears Sony's requirements with room to spare. For PC builders, it's a fast, reliable 2TB stick that won't make your wallet cry.
Common Questions
Q: Does this work in a PS5?
Yes, and it's one of the best options for it. The included heatsink meets Sony's requirements, and the 7,000 MB/s read speed clears the 5,500 MB/s minimum with headroom. Just pop it in the expansion slot and format it.
Q: Is DRAM-less a problem for gaming?
Not really. Games are mostly read-heavy, and the MP600 Elite's controller handles that fine. You might see slightly slower sustained writes if you're moving massive files around, but for loading games and booting Windows, you won't notice a difference.
Q: How does this compare to the WD Black SN850X?
They're neck and neck for gaming. The SN850X has DRAM and slightly better sustained write performance, but the MP600 Elite is often cheaper and comes with a heatsink. For PS5, the MP600 Elite is the easier choice. For heavy PC workloads, the SN850X edges it out.
Who Should Skip This
If you're doing heavy video editing or running a workstation that hammers the drive with sustained writes, this isn't your drive. The DRAM-less design will show its limits, and you'd be better off with a WD Black SN850X or a Samsung 990 Pro. Also, if you need a portable SSD, look elsewhere. This is an internal M.2 drive, and our database shows portable performance is a real weak spot.
Verdict
Buy the Corsair MP600 Elite if you want a fast, reliable 2TB Gen4 drive that works flawlessly in a PS5 or a gaming PC. It's not the absolute fastest Gen4 drive out there, but it's close enough that you won't notice the difference in real-world use. The DRAM-less design is a non-issue for gaming and everyday tasks. Just make sure you're getting it at the lower end of that price range.
