Deal | Crucial P5 Plus 2TB SSD for PS5 now 63% off on Amazon

Upgrading the internal storage of modern laptops, desktop PCs or even gaming consoles like the Sony PlayStation 5 has become significantly cheaper over the course of the past few months. Surprisingly, even one of the most popular PCIe 4.0 SSDs is for PS5 now approaching the US$100 threshold as the 2TB Crucial P5 Plus has been put on sale.

More precisely, the 2TB model variant of the Crucial P5 Plus SSD has received an enormous discount of 63 percent or US$200 in relation to the original but unrealistic MSPR of US$319, which results in a quite intriguing sale price of US$119 including free shipping. Alternatively, this deal is also available at Best Buy and some other US-based retailers. Most notably, Camel's price tracker suggests that the Crucial P5 Plus has never been cheaper on Amazon, which means that now is a particularly good time to pick up this quick M.2 SSD for PS5.

In terms of raw performance, the Crucial P5 Plus can hit sequential read and write speeds of up to 6,600 MB/s and 5,000 MB/s, respectively. Its endurance is rated at 1,200 TBW, but please note that Sony recommends installing a compatible heat sink if the 2TB SSD is used for the PS5 storage expansion. Last but not least, this NVMe drive is covered by the usual five-year manufacturer warranty, and it may be a reasonable choice for careful buyers who are wary of the recent firmware trouble that the competing Samsung 980 Pro was affected by.
