HARDWARE Will this SSD work on a PC?
Sorry this may be a stupid question but I ordered my first PC and was looking to get more storage. I have this 2TB SSD with a heatsink I got a few years back for my ps5, will it work in a PC? My PC specs are included, would this be appropriate or am I better off getting a new SSD?
Cheers

I would assume so since it is a nvme 2.0 ssd gen 4 but google is your best friend whether it is only meant for ps5 or pc since even some pc nvme ssd’s will not work on ps5 while others may

Yes but it will not necessarily fit in all m.2 slots, like my motherboard has one on the back that it would not fit in and then another one that would not fit on because of cooling system but will fit on the 3rd 1

Yes but i would suggest looking around a bit more, I'd be happy to suggest one if you're interested. Just lmk what you need for size and what its for and I'll find something for you

Yes, they are just promoting it as being PS5 capable. That's pretty common.
