Most drives above need a heatsink for the PS5. Buy the heatsink version where the maker sells one, or add a PS5-compatible heatsink within Sony's 11.25 mm limit. PCIe Gen5 drives are left out because Sony lists Gen4 x4 drives.

How to read these scores
Each drive gets up to three ratings out of 100: speed (the maker's maximum sequential read), warranty term, and value (speed against price per GB). A buyer profile weights them. Tiers: S 90+, A 80–89, B 70–79, C 60–69, D below 60. Where a maker page does not state the warranty, we leave that row out and re-spread the weights; we never guess. Speeds are the maker's "up to" figures for the model line; smaller capacities are often slower. Read the full method.
