Seagate ZP500GM3A023 FireCuda 530 M.2 500 GB PCI Express

FireCuda 530 with heatsink offers a minimalist design, anodized aluminium body, and finely textured micropore surface to improve heat transfer and lower SSD temps — making it super-efficient at maximum cooling to maintain peak performance for longer periods of time.

FireCuda 530 with heatsink is also compatible with PS5™ systems. Our built-in SSD and heatsink combo meets PS5 specs on performance and dimensions.

Speed Reigns — The Fastest FireCuda Ever

FireCuda 530 dominates the SSD lineup, delivering:

- Blistering transfer speeds of up to 7,300 MB's
- Absolute power to make content creations apps run faster and smoother
- Lightning-fast video rendering and exporting
- Responsive performance built for accelerated gaming and sustained abuse — record, download, rewrite, repeat

Absolute Performance

Up to 2x faster than PCIe Gen3 NVMe™ SSDs and up to 12x faster than SATA SSDs — the FireCuda 530 redefines speed.

Cool Speed Ahead

NVMe PCIe Gen4 extreme speeds generate extra heat. That’s why Seagate partnered with EKWB — the leaders in heat management — to develop FireCuda 530’s custom heatsink. Built from a high-grade aluminium block with a finely textured anodized finish to help maximise cooling efficiency, this built-in heatsink helps minimise thermal throttling while maximising peak performance for longer periods of time.

Form and Function

Low-profile heatsink design allows for installation in tighter spaces, and premium dark gunmetal grey anodization creates additional micropores in the material surface to promote cooling properties.

Endurance Unleashed

Designed to perform under heavy use and tough enough to go the distance with:

- 0.7 Drive Writes per Day — fill and delete 70% of the drive capacity, every day, for five years
- 1.8 Million Hours Mean Time Between Failures for trusted reliability
- Up to 5,100 TB Total Terabytes Written — durability delivered

Latest Tech

Push your rig to its limit — the FireCuda 530 is built with a Seagate-validated E18 controller and the latest 3D TLC NAND for the most advanced speed and durability.

Storage Expansion for PS5™

The FireCuda 530 is compatible with PS5™ consoles, and meets PS5 specs on performance and dimensions. Plus, the FireCuda with heatsink combo makes for an easy drop-in expansion solution with no additional parts needed.
