Crucial has been making SSDs and other hardware like RAM for many years. It may not be a brand currently among the best SSDs but it’s still a reliable option.

With speedy sequential reads/writes of 14,900MB/s and 13,800MB/s, and random reads/writes of 2.2M/2.3M, it’ll cut down on loading times nicely. If you’re considering buying the heatsink model to add to your PS5, it’ll be similarly convenient when loading new games.

If such an upgrade sounds intimidating, don’t worry. It’s very simple to learn how to install a PS5 SSD – and I’ve done it myself. When I did it, it only took me around 10 minutes, and I was impressed at how easy it was to do. Storage is something we all end up needing more of over time and the Crucial T710 is a great solution to that problem.

If you’d prefer the simplicity and portability of an external solution, take a look at the best external hard drives around at the moment. If you need an even bigger upgrade, it might be time to eye up the gaming PC deals going on right now. There are some great discounts around.
