The 4TB U90 is one of the most affordable high-capacity PCIe Gen 4 solid-state drives available on Amazon, and it is from Silicon Power. This brand is slowly gaining traction but is yet to establish itself as one of the key entities in this space. Regardless, the 4TB U90 offers incredible value as it costs just $169.99 on the online retailer and can be installed in any vacant M.2 NVMe slot present in your laptop or desktop computer. Thanks to its Gen 4 speeds, which we will get into shortly, this Silicon Power drive can also be installed in your PS5 effortlessly.
The sequential read speeds can go up to 5,000MB/s. In contrast, the sequential write speeds top out at 4,800MB/s, which is around what you would expect from a PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD. Silicon Power also offers a 5-year limited warranty in case the drive fails on you. Still, it should be noted that high-capacity drives such as this have a significantly higher tolerance than the 2TB and 1TB versions. So, by the time you even start to notice the aging of the 4TB U90 drive, you will likely be in search of another deal, which will be years later.
If you are unfamiliar with this company, you can always go for something that has established itself as a significant player in the solid-state drive industry, such as Crucial. For just $10 more, you can get the P3 Plus for $179.99. It shares the same PCIe Gen 4 protocol as the U90 and can be slotted into the PS5 without giving you any compatibility issues. Then again, if you want to save every dollar, there is no harm in picking this up.
