  Works on PS5 according to the few comments on the PB Tech user reviews

    Does indeed! I have one in my PS5 - works great. I do worry about the lack of heatsink - I did buy one but it wasn't designed for a double sided PCB (the EKWB M.2 cooler pbtech sells) and didn't fit.

  Never before have I seen a brand try SO HARD to hide the specifications, and when you finally find the spec sheet, it doesn't say the NAND type.

  https://www.pny.com/file%20library/company/support/product%2…

  Based on how much effort they're putting in to hiding what kind of NAND they're using, it's safe to assume its QLC and it will hit 5.6GB/s until the DRAM, which they advertise hard and don't list the capacity on (probably 4GB max) runs out.

  But not to worry, it's not like video games are more than 4GB.

  Then it will drop to slower than a hard drive.

  What's that you say? Over 100GB these days? Oh my.

    but as always people need to research base on their usage.
