Your channel is absolutely great!!! I was waiting for this video, couldn't decide between these two. So Firecuda it is for me, thank you so much!

@Residentevilfan1 2 года назад

Great video as always! Now that the Matrix UE5 demo is out on PS5 that can be your new benchmark for loading/pop in/framerate. During the driving sequence I noticed when you go over 100 mph the framerate starts to get choppy, maybe it’s because the massive amount of data being streamed in. I’m sure an ultra fast ssd can mitigate this.

@krazyb1234 2 года назад

Nice I was debating these two, will go with the firecuda.

@leonprez231 2 года назад

Absolutely fantastic once again 🙌. I think you should do a you Quick recap video on all the heatsinks but only use the same ssd in all test. I think that should be the sn850 as it clearly runs the hottest out of all nvme ssds. For an overall tier ranking list. As I have noticed you have used different ssds throughout your testing of the heatsinks which all run at different temperatures. Either way great video as always. Keep up the great work my friend 👏👏👏

@ashwentel 2 года назад

Not to bust your bubbles but I used to own the 2TB and thought the same. Until, I found out that they have quite a few out with the thermal pad not touching the controllers. Just an advice, you just have to use a flash light (or your phone light) and try to see if there’s a gap between the thermal pad and the SSD itself. It can shorten the life spam of your SSD or worst, damage your system.

@ashwentel 2 года назад

I used to own the SN850 2TB Until I saw some ppl talking about theirs, and apparently, there’s quite few out with the thermal pad NOT touching the controllers. Got curios and checked mine, (also when I checked, I was surprised that it was pretty warm although my PS5 was in rest mode for the whole day just before I turned it on just to turn it off and waited for about 10mins before opening my PS5) It took me a few weeks arguing with western digital for a replace or a refund. Never got one till I talked to Amazon and Amazon took it back and gave me a refund.

@nigelwinton7499 2 года назад

Hi could you please tell us know what the ambient temp of the ps5 without ssd installed is.? also does the pny and Sabrent heatsinks work with the firecuda 530 or is it just worth getting it with its own heatsink ?

@bobbymoss6160 2 года назад

Would reseating or reinstalling the SN850 heatsink make a different?

@tdome3000 2 года назад

Could you maybe also test these SSDs with the other heatsinks? The Sabrents, Elutengs etc. I have seen also in other reviews that the WD gets much hotter than the Seagate in a PC, and it would be nice to see if the 3rd party heatsinks do a better job than the ones from the manufacturers.

@Healcraft Год назад

its also possible it doesnt get hotter but has a more / less accurate sensor or (most likely) the sensor is not in the exact same spot as seagate, and maybe measures the hotspot better

@tdome3000 Год назад

@@Healcraft It's possible, but it's not the case.

@Healcraft Год назад

@@tdome3000 either way i would just add an aftermarket heatsink onto it, I have seen other commentors suggesting the WD heatsink doesnt make good contact with the controller. And the seagate probably is cooler but I think its sensor is definitely off if its idling at 17C just not possible in that room temp. Reminds me of AMD FX Cpus that would idle at 12C the sensor wasnt calibrated correct or something.

@hansfritz6026 2 года назад

So glad i bought the wd sn 850 without the heatsink and instead the sabrent ps5 heatsink, this test is very disappointing I thought the sn850 with heatsink would do better but these temperatures are not worth the price

@tdome3000 2 года назад

Me the same, after this test I'm kind of worried that I bought the sn850 with the sabrent heatsink.

@WavyVaporizers 2 года назад

They would make even more money if we could buy these heatsinks separately from the ssd itself

Wd black sn850 with heatsink is the officially licensed ssd by Sony for use with their console. Goes to show if u have even a £10 heatsink with m2 cover. It’s fine. Sony are happy with it

@michaelstig 2 года назад

Do you put the provided PS5 lid back on with these heat sinks already installed ?

@nascompares 2 года назад

Yep. Unless a heatsink exceeds the m.2 height, the aluminium cover plate always goes on

@XxGAMERxXPS3 2 года назад

SN850 with BeQuite MC1 I have thermal probe and did some testing 45c with plate off and 52c with plate on. Sony does seem too know more then our Nand experts here who say to leave plate off. Or that cooler m.2 is better. Remember its the controller that is getting hot. It can handle heat. Its basically a cpu. Degradation of the nand is accelerated the hotter the nand module is but thats if you are pushing 70-80c. As long as its 0-60c you are fine. If you watch more in depth review the nand is always around 40c mark while controller is bit hotter. Overall WD is better choice. Wouldn’t trust Seagate with storage.

@@WavyVaporizers hum 🤔 since the ps5 ssd upgrade, I, my brother and 2 other friends have tested countless different models and brands and it turns out that the 530 is ahead of all the others, since I have it, it's great, and I've had a dozen people around me buy it and they're all thrilled 👍 it's possible that krobin is a troll... a troll who may have bought a WD-Black SN850 (a model I know very well) and who realized that he didn't make the right choice and didn't return it it is possible of course a broken unit, but after 6 weeks I find it very strange... he says he can't restart his ps5 while he still has the sony ssd to troubleshoot and continue playing! All firecuda are guaranteed 5 years anyway, in case of failure they will send you a new one as soon as possible in any case our experience of this product and very conclusive as well as on a pc use, it is a beast ✌️
