For full disclosure, I purchased the 2TB SSD with the included heatsink.
# Easy to install:
Sony gets points for this category as well for making it so simple to open and add/upgrade the SSD inside the PS5. We simply slid off the white cover, removed the SSD expansion door/shield, and used the already included (with the PS5) hardware to fasten the SSD into the slot. The dimensions of the SSD (including the heatsink it comes with) are a perfect match for the SSD expansion slot on the PS5. It fits like a glove (see pictures). Then it was simply a matter of closing the expansion slot, replacing the cover, and booting up the PS5!
# Setup:
As soon as the PS5 booted up, it recognized the new SSD and gave me the option to "format" it (required to set it up to recognize the PS5's file system). The formatting process took about 20 seconds and then it was done! It was ready to use. You must make sure you go into the PS5's 'Storage' settings to make sure you designate your new drive as the installation location for new games, or specific content (if you want to use it that way, of course). Or you can simply transfer files to and from the SSD expansion at your leisure.
# Performance:
While this drive claims read speeds of around 7,300MB/s your mileage may vary on the PS5. The PS5 reported around 5,700MBs - but keep in mind this is not a limitation of the SSD but the data transfer subsystem of the PS5 itself. Rest assured, it's most likely the drive is capable of up 7,300MB/s on compatible hardware, and you can sleep easy knowing that its bandwidth capabilities are well in excess of what the PS5 needs to run at peak performance.
I ran a test by copying Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (57GB of data) from the PS5 local storage to the new SSD. It took around ONE MINUTE to transfer! That's insane.
I then installed the new Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves collection to this storage and benchmarked the performance/load times of the game, and they were on par with the PS5's local storage, loading up an entire level in just under 2 seconds!
I've read that high performance SSDs like this one can even perform a little faster than the on-board SSD that came with the PS5, but, the performance of either drive (internal or expansion) is so fast already, the differences will be too subtle to notice. Especially on PS5 optimized games that load faster than the time it probably takes to start your stopwatch and benchmark.
# Final Thoughts
This SSD (with the included heatsink) is clearly designed with PS5 expansion in mind. If that is why you're looking at this SSD then I can strongly recommend it. It's easy to install, fits like a glove, and performs well in excess of what the PS5 requires. It has been going strong in my PS5 for 6 weeks now and I am extremely happy with this purchase.

I was almost tempted to try a 2 Tbyte M.2 drive for another $50 or so, but paraphrasing an old Bill Gates quote, "<1 Tbyte> should be enough for anyone...". If you want to, again, Google is your friend.
Yes, you can buy a cheaper 1 Tbyte SSD, but if your spending $1400 on your basic SP9, another 10% shouldn't break the bank and you get a brand name WITH A DATA RECOVERY WARRANTY! I mean, give me a break, what's not to like here? I wish I could give this drive more tha 5 stars...
Top reviews from other countries
The FireCuda 530's speed is nothing short of remarkable. With transfer speeds up to 7300MB/s, it's not just about the raw performance; it's about how it translates into real-world usage. File transfers, data backups, and accessing large media files have become noticeably faster. This speed boost is especially apparent when handling 4K video editing tasks directly from the NAS, where the SSD effortlessly handles the intensive read/write operations.
The inclusion of a heatsink with this SSD model was a crucial factor in my decision. NAS devices, especially when loaded with multiple drives, can get quite warm. The heatsink plays a vital role in maintaining optimal operating temperatures, minimizing the risk of thermal throttling and ensuring consistent performance even under heavy loads. It's a peace of mind that the drive will operate within safe temperature ranges, thus prolonging its lifespan.
Another aspect worth mentioning is the drive's endurance and reliability. With a rating of 1275 TBW (terabytes written) and a 1.8M hours MTBF (mean time between failures), this SSD is built to last. For a NAS setup that's running 24/7, these specifications provide assurance that the drive can withstand continuous operation without compromising data integrity.
Integrating the FireCuda 530 into my Synology NAS was straightforward. The physical installation was a breeze, thanks to the compact M.2 form factor and the pre-attached heatsink. On the software side, Synology's DiskStation Manager (DSM) immediately recognized the drive, making it easy to configure and deploy in my storage pool.
In summary, the Seagate FireCuda 530 with a heatsink has been an excellent addition to my Synology DS1821+ NAS. It offers a perfect blend of speed, durability, and thermal management. Whether it's for professional use or personal media consumption, this SSD has elevated my NAS's performance to new heights, making it a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to enhance their data storage and access capabilities.
