In the first place: General SSDs have two main shapes

　SSD is an abbreviation of "Solid State Drive", which means "solid drive" in Japanese. Simply put, it refers to a storage (data preservation medium) without a movable portion that saves data in the memory tip. The de facto opposite is the "HDD (Hard Disk Drive)" that saves data on a high -speed rotation disk (disk). The merit of SSD is the strength of the impact due to the lack of movable portions and the speed of reading and writing data by using a memory tip. On the other hand, there is a disadvantage that the price per unit capacity is higher compared to HDD, and that frequent reading and writing are likely to shorten the life. However, these disadvantages are no longer as large as before, due to the progress of technology and the improvement of mass production effects. Aside from that, SSDs that can be built into game consoles and personal computers are "2.5 inch case "and" M.There are two shapes "2 (Emdot Tow))" (there are other shapes for desktop PCs / servers, but I will omit the explanation).PCI Express 4 to be taken up this time.All SSDs for 0 are M.It has two shapes, but let's briefly review the shape just in case.2.5 inch case, as the name implies, 2.5 inch case SSD 2.It is in the same shape as a 5 -inch HDD.Equipped with PlayStation 4 (PS4) and slightly old laptop 2.The main application is to replace the 5 -inch HDD or as an additional storage in the desktop computer, and the connection method is Serial ATA (SATA).2.In the case of a 5 -inch HDD, the size varies depending on the product, about 70 (width) x 100 (depth) x 7 to 15 (thickness) mm.Thickness 9 when replacing the HDD of PlayStation 4 (PS4) and many laptops with SSD.SSDs under 5mm are required, but 2.Most of the 5 -inch case SSDs are 7mm thick, so don't worry much ( * 1).( * 1) Depending on the device of the installation / replacement destination, if the thickness is 7mm, it may not be possible to install it well because it is too thin.In that case, the gaps can be filled by using "Spacer" (included depending on the SSD) m.2 m.2 is one of the standards that define the shape and terminal of the expansion card (substrate) built into the computer.In recent PCs (especially laptops), this M.The SSD compliant with 2 is the mainstream of storage.The SSD that can be added to PS5 is also this M.It is a two -shaped SSD.The benefits are very compact.Many are sold by the board "only", but some products assumed to be installed on the desktop PC or PS5 have a heat sink (heat discharge plate) in advance.However, M.There are two points to be aware of in the two -shaped SSD that should not be overlooked, so I will introduce them in the following items.
