The short version

The MP600 Elite is Corsair's DRAM-less PCIe 4.0 x4 drive, using a Phison E27T controller and Kioxia BiCS6 TLC. This heatsink version of the 2TB is rated up to 7,000 MB/s reads and 6,500 MB/s writes with 1,200 TBW. Tom's Hardware found good sustained speed and efficiency, but little new. It suits PS5 upgrades and desktops without M.2 cooling. Corsair's bare 2TB was out of stock when checked, so this version is covered.

What reviewers and owners say

  • Tom's Hardware

    Mixed

    Calls it a decent Gen4 drive with good efficiency and a handy optional heatsink, but notes it adds nothing new in a crowded market.

Common questions

Will this version fit in a PS5?

Tom's Hardware lists the heatsink as PS5-compatible at about 9 mm tall, and Corsair also sells a separate version marketed specifically for the console.

Why cover the heatsink model rather than the bare drive?

Corsair showed the bare 2TB as out of stock at a much higher price, while this heatsink version was in stock when checked.
