with 7200TBW(Could not believe the TBW) and 5 year warranty listed on Amazon.co.jp

$293 AUD roughly after conversion as of today, I was bit skeptical but this video(link below showing it's testing) made me go ahead and buy it.

Please feel free to share your experiences of buying from Amazon Japan in general as it was my first time.

  Also can PS5 take 4tb?

  Edit: how on earth did that video give you confidence 😂

    Not sure I'll test it today and update fingers crossed.

    Confidence of at least some one has tested it 😁

      It's working really good the speed test after the first format on PS5 came up as 6544MB/s the SN850 comes as 6541MB/s so that's exciting and copied the games from internal to ms950 is working similar as well, played some games and I am not seeing any differences in speed or lag so I am happy so far :)

    thanks for sharing I was not aware of it, what about TBW though?

      Since they have the same mother so…

      This one says TBW is 3000TB. Is one of them lying?

  Not sure why you'd be stupid enough to buy this over the Lexar SSD.

  • 

    Sleepycat3 on 09/09/2023 - 11:16

    Agreed and I'm not a fan of the Lexar too!

      What do you prefer instead?

• 

  maverickjohn on 09/09/2023 - 11:41

  Just get the Lexar if for PC. If for ps5 I can see why you would get this though.

  • 

    NoApostrophePlurals on 09/09/2023 - 15:36

    Why would you get this over the Lexar for PS5? Because of the crappy heatsink? Buy one from AliExpress to stick on

    • 

      maverickjohn on 09/09/2023 - 15:53

      Because if you take off the metal sheet ont he lexar to try to put a heatsink it voids the warranty.
      It's more of a warranty statement reason rather than purchasing a heatsink..

        NoApostrophePlurals on 10/09/2023 - 00:57

        Well since you don't get domestic warranty on this deal, it's in the same boat, right? How often do SSDs fail? I have no idea

        Why pull off the metal sticker? It's such a thin piece of metal the thermal resistance is essentially zero.

  with 7200TBW(Could not believe the TBW)

  It's just some random Chinese brand. Mostly likely the tbw is garbage?

    it's probably 720 TBW and some intern was asked on the sly by management to make a typo
