I'd highly recommend the Samsung 990 Pro PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD. It's blazing fast with read speeds up to 7,450 MB/s and write speeds up to 6,900 MB/s. It's also compatible with PCIe 4.0, which your laptop supports. The 1TB or 2TB option should give you plenty of space for games and files.

WD Black SN850X is a very stable SSD.

I use the Samsung 990 EVO SSD, no issues and very fast, https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Internal-Computer-MZ-V9E2T0B-AM/dp/B0CRC7H66Z?------123456890?7649-20

Yo! Caught this thread and had to jump in because I actually have the G16 too and let me tell you, I love it! But hold up, are you planning on getting a 4TB drive or sticking to something smaller? I'm asking because space inside these thin laptops is super tight. I had a total nightmare trying to force a double-sided drive into my last rig and I literally almost snapped the board... it was so scary! Honestly, just go with Crucial NVMe SSD or maybe some Kingston NVMe SSD stuff. You basically cant go wrong with them!

• They run super cool which is amazing for those long gaming sessions.
• The compatibility is always top-tier.
• Usually way thinner so you wont have fitment issues. I have used them in like five different builds now and they just work every single time. Its honestly such a relief not worrying about if the bottom panel will actually close properly!

If you're looking for top-tier performance, the Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus is an excellent choice for the ROG Strix G16. It's a PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD with incredible speeds - up to 7,000 MB/s read and 5,300 MB/s write. It might be overkill for some users, but if you want the best of the best, this is a strong contender.
