After 2 years of owning a PS5 I've come to the point where I need the extra SSD space for my growing PS5 game collection, my PS4 games are all stored on an external HDD so I could have as much stock SSD storage as possible without wasting it on PS4 games that don't benefit from the SSD.
Installing this SSD takes all of 5 minutes, I've built PCs and have a bit of experience but even then it's a very simple task for someone that hasn't done it before. Once installed turning on the PS5 greets you with the 'Format new storage' just like it did with my USB HDD, once that's done in all of a minute or so the PS5 launched as usual.
Now all that's left is to organise the new drive with a few games which is very easy as the PS5 allows you to move the PS5 games to the new M.2 without having to delete and reinstall!
As shown in my clip the copying is super quick! I was able to move 130+GB in just over a minute 😃👍🏻
I can also change the default install location to the new SSD instead of the stock one without too much fuss.
Overall I'm really happy with this upgrade, the SSD works flawlessly and seems to boot games faster than the stock PS5 SSD 👍🏻
Purchased on offer for just under £70 for the 500GB version.
