add drive to my ps5

[snikr]

I want to add a SSD drive to my PS5 so I can have more storage for my PS5 games. Has anyone done this, and what drive/heatsink did you use??

The WD SN850 model is highly recommended, one of the fastest SSD Gen4 M.2 drives. Available in 500G, 1TB, 2TB sizes:

Be sure to also buy and add a heatsink for it. Like this one.​

These drives are still quite expensive, so I'm waiting on that.
I may buy an external 5TB USB drive though if I exhaust the internal storage.

Check YouTube for this... there are quite a few videos on how to do it there.

I've just upgraded myself to a m.2 storage which has 1TD if you go to the link below this would be ideal for the ps5

That's the same SSD that Cerny recommended on Twitter.

Thanks. Gives me something to search.

I finally upgraded my internal storage on my PS5. I got a WD_Black SN850 2 TB with heatsink. It works GREAT! Now it's time to load it up with PS5 games...LOL

What are the benefits to adding drive to a console besides more storage space? Can it be quite pricy? Are there tips for beginners for adding? I love watching Youtube for tutorials & it's nice to have some videos that are recommended!

 

[snikr]

Space is the reason to add the storage. With PS5 games you will run out of run quickly.
