Hello ozbargain community,
With the m.2 ssd support finally released for PlayStation 5 users I’ve decided to get one for myself, since I got one without a heat sink what’s the best ssd heat sink that’s on eBay (already have a voucher to use). What actually fits inside the m.2 ssd bay?
TIA
Not much, not many from eBay that’s compatible.
I found plenty of heat sinks online but I want to see what experiences people have had with them
You also could've just posted a link to said info in less time than it took to write yours…
Teach a man to fish and all that…
Maybe CoolerMaster CM M.2 SSD Thermal Pad

I don't know about best as it's not a normal heatsink but review showed 15 degree drop and link says compatible with ps5.
I ordered recently for PC, haven't tested yet
That’s looks pretty good,
Let me know how it goes when you get it
Will do

If you don't mind the wait AliExpress has heaps of offerings like this. Just search for "m.2 heatsink" to get a heap of results.
This is compatible with PS5 (friend has it)
M.2 SSD NVMe Aluminum Heat Sink m2 2280

Thanks so much!
This was the answer I was looking for.
Ordered one
Out of curiosity - what instructions you following for the SSD upgrade? Does it void warranty? Also how do you know if your PS5 doesn't have a heat sink?

This is from the playstation website https://www.playstation.com/en-au/support/hardware/ps5-insta…
Does it void warranty?
No, its a seperate M.2 ssd bay that is very easily accessible and doesn't replace the internal 825GB ssd, just an add on
Also how do you know if your PS5 doesn't have a heat sink?
All Playstation 5 have heatsinks, but the new additional ssd must have some sort of heatsink for cooling
Gotcha!
What did (insert search engine here) say? I literally found some info in less time than reading your post :/
