It&#8217;s also a near essential upgrade. With games taking up as much as 100GB of space apiece, it&#8217;s very easy to max out the PS5&#8217;s stock 1TB storage, and it&#8217;s not unheard of to max out an additional 2TB of space.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The KingSpec XG7000 is very fast for a &#8220;budget&#8221; M.2 SSD. This is a PCI-E 4&#215;4 drive with transfer speeds of up to 7,400MB\/s read and 6,600MB\/s write, which passes Sony&#8217;s recommended minimum requirement of 5,5000MB\/s. Despite the fact that this is a budget SSD, the XG7000 is equipped with TCL 3D NAND flash memory. Most cheap SSDs use QLC memory, which has slower sustained speeds and a shorter lifespan.  To save costs, the XG7000 doesn&#8217;t have onboard DRAM, and instead uses HMB, or onboard system memory for buffering. For PS5 gamers, there&#8217;s no difference.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Although you can get by without a heatsink, Sony officially recommends one, as noted in their FAQ section in their install guide. The KingSpec XG7000 doesn&#8217;t include one out of the box. Fortunately, you can find one on Amazon for about $6 and they&#8217;re very simple to install (most are attached with adhesive).<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\">\n<aside class=\"card jsx-2310533475 jsx-1178573261 box\" data-cy=\"aside\">\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">How to Follow IGN Deals Recommendations<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The IGN Deals team has over 30 years of combined experience finding the best discounts and preorders available online.
