Overview

With speeds up to 10,000 MB/s, this PCIe Gen5 takes no-prisoners, toppling Gen4 speeds by 50% and going 17 times faster than SATA SSDs. DirectStorage support brings faster load times to games and applications. Plus, handles upwards of 2000 TB total bytes written, perfect for powering through constant abuse. This SSD isn’t for the faint of heart.

FireCuda 540 is also compatible with PS5™ systems when combined with effective heat dissipation and an added cooling structure — such as a heatsink or a heat transfer sheet.
