This SSD is PS5 compatible. It can be used in a PlayStation 5 console as expansion storage.

AS SSD Benchmark

Standard performance test

The standard test was performed with a 5 GB file. A total score of 7332 points was achieved.

AS SSD	Read:	Write:
Seq in megabytes per second	5907,23 MB/s	5514,46 MB/s
4K in megabytes per second	77,20 MB/s	221,88 MB/s
4K-64Thrd in megabytes per second	1796,88 MB/s	2842,21 MB/s
Access time in milliseconds	0,016 ms	0,087 ms
Score	2465	3616
Total score	7332

Copy Performance Test

A common everyday situation is simulated here. Three test folders are created:

• ISO (folder with two large files)
• Program (folder with many small files)
• Game (folder with small and large files)

The three folders are copied using the Windows Copy command (the cache remains enabled). The practical test of July 19, 2024 shows the performance for simultaneous write and read operations. The lower the duration, the better the performance.

AS SSD Copy-Benchmark	Transfer rate:	Duration:
ISO two large files	2061,91 MB/s	1,11 s
Program many small files	1162,90 MB/s	6,05 s
Game small and large files	1924,58 MB/s	3,59 s

Compression Performance Test

Here, the writing and reading speed of the the Corsair SSDSSD is measured depending on the compressibility of the data (according to the manufacturer, these should be 7000MB/s and 6200MB/s respectively).

CrystalDiskMark Benchmark

Here, two sequential and two random performance tests are performed, similar to the ones performed on the AS SSD.
