Can the Adata XPG SSD also be used with the Playstation 5?

Hey ByNiro, this card would work in terms of size, but Sony explicitly states that the read speed must be at least 5500MB/s, otherwise the low SSD will slow down the internal one. This one only has 3500MB/s. So it doesn't work.
Specifications:

These are the specifications from the console manufacturer SONY:

Interface: PCIe Gen4 M.2 NVMe SSD
Size: 250 GB to 4 TB
Read speed: at least 5,500 MB/s
Form factor: The PS5 only supports M.2 types 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110.
Socket type: Socket 3 (Key M)
Height: Total maximum 11.25mm.

This Adata is Compatible:

Adata GAMMIX S70 (1000GB, M.2 2280)

Only the heatsink (cooler) has to be smaller, otherwise it won't fit in the PS5's bay.

On this page you can find out what works and what doesn't:
