Corsair 4TB SSD PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe M.2

The MP600 PRO LPX is a 4TB Gen4 drive that nails PS5 compatibility and hits 6,800 MB/s sequential speeds. Capacity and speed rank near the top of our database, but endurance and warranty are below average. Worth buying if you find it under $500 in the US, skip it if you're paying anywhere near $1,000.

Sequential speeds land at 6,800 MB/s both ways, which puts it in the top tier of Gen4 drives we've tracked. That's more than enough for PS5 game loads and fast travel screens. Random performance is solid but not spectacular, sitting right around the middle of the pack. The heatsink does its job, keeping sustained reads from throttling during long sessions. Endurance is the weak spot here, landing below average for a 4TB drive, and the 3-year warranty feels short compared to the 5-year coverage Corsair mentions in some marketing copy.

Against the Samsung 9100 PRO and WD Black SN850X, the MP600 PRO LPX holds its own on sequential speed but gives up ground on endurance and warranty. The Kingston FURY Renegade G5 and Crucial T710 both offer better all-around specs in our database, often at similar or lower prices. The Seagate FireCuda 530R is another solid alternative with a longer warranty. If you're buying specifically for PS5, the Corsair's heatsink and fit are genuinely convenient. But if you want the best overall drive, the Samsung or WD options are stronger picks.

Pricing is genuinely weird right now. In the US, we're seeing listings from $456 to $1,060 for the same drive, which is a $604 spread. That's not a typo. If you're buying in the US, hunt for the lower end of that range and don't pay anywhere near the top. European pricing runs from €1,013 to €1,260, a €247 gap. At the low end, this is a reasonable deal for 4TB of PS5 storage. At the high end, you're getting fleeced. Shop around before you commit.

The Corsair MP600 PRO LPX is a 4TB Gen4 NVMe drive aimed squarely at PS5 owners who are tired of deleting games to make room for new ones. It hits 6,800 MB/s read and write in our testing, which clears Sony's requirements without breaking a sweat. The pre-installed low-profile heatsink means it drops right into the console slot with zero fuss.

It's not the newest or flashiest drive on the shelf anymore. But for a console expansion stick, it does exactly what it needs to do. Big capacity, fast enough, and no installation headaches.

Skip this if you're building a PC and care about endurance or long-term warranty coverage. The below-average endurance rating and 3-year warranty are real drawbacks compared to the Samsung 9100 PRO or WD Black SN850X. Also skip it if you can only find it at the high end of the price range, because you'd be overpaying for what you get.

Buy this if you have a PS5, want 4TB, and find it at the low end of the price range. It's a purpose-built console drive that does its job without drama. If you're building a PC or want maximum endurance and warranty coverage, there are better options for the money.
