These SSDs are compatible and will play well with games like Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, as long as they meet the speed requirements.
Even drives that don't meet the spec (older/cheaper gen4 drives) will still play well with current games. But if you're buying a new SSD, the extra $20 – $30 for a drive that will meet specs and maintain its performance outweighs buying a cheaper, slower drive.
As games evolve, load times will probably become more optimized for high speed storage or in-sequence loading, which could be problematic for slower drives.
Gen3 drives are entirely incompatible regardless of storage size.
In terms of heatsinks, your drive will need one as per Sony's recommendations, since there's no airflow in the M.2 compartment in the PS5. Many drives have built-in copper heatsinks that are better than nothing, or will sometimes come with an additional heatsink in the box. Otherwise, even a cheap, generic low-profile heatsink from Amazon will help ensure the longevity of drives. It does need to fit within the space though.

A gente é obrigado pagar mais caro pelo que eles recomendam.
no heat syn
So on an Xbox could I take out the boot drive os and put I a windows ssd?
I actually just installed the 1 terrabite firefox drive and a funny thing that happened was the nail that holds down the spacer fell into the ps5 dust port, so I had to look throughout my ps5 then I finally found it
Sebrent is ps5 certified
What about the Heat Synk ? I know not all of them come with a Heat Synk but I watched another video that said that the SSD gets hot and needs a Heat Synk . I know you covered that but in the other video I watched the Heat Synk was blue
I’m almost positive the next Xbox will have an extra spot for ssds maybe even the slim of the series x will
Pay that money. You get what you paid
🤣 "should be fine, I'm beta asf"😭🤣💀
6:35 Sony probably did this, so you can just use any thumbdrive to save your clips instead. Perhaps you can load them into a Cloud Service later via a PC or whatever. The requirements clearly show, that you are putting in an M.2 drive for games and not your metric-tons of clips. 😀
Too had Honey has never worked for me. The promo codes just plain don't work.
wow, Sony really got crappy with thier latest console. Any 2.5" drive worked in the PS3 and 4 but now you have to download half completed software and use specific drives to get it to work? Glad I switched to PC where I can install any drive I damn well please in my system without special software.
Question
Do you know if a Gen 5 SSD will work on a PS5?
The hardest part for me was removing the cover
I disagree that its easier and cheper. As I bought a 1TB Xbox drive cheaper than it would have cost for the equivilant SSD. And when prices of these SSD's drop significantly. Then a hacker will come along and make it so you can use a third party drive like they did with the Original Xbox, Xbox360 and XboxOne storage.
Why didn’t he try a 4tb gen 3 drive? The ps4 says it wouldn’t format because the 8tb drive because it was over 4tb.
I’ve never run into an issue with my MP 600
8:28 what’s that game?
It said recommended, it did not say supported.
So the MVMe SSD has to be Gen4 or later to work with the PS5? It's just no wonder that newer generation consoles need other things up to date as well.
In the long run, this breaks absolutely nothing. The specifications set are there for the quality of the system in it's lifetime, so we're therefore at the mercy of 3rd party components performance, not someone's ignorance of what works best, if at all without official certification. I know we still have to label gasoline as flammable, but FFS even that can be googled.
So is the max SSD is 2TB or 4TB
Interesting comment at 5:59, recently I upgraded my ps5 and the sabrent rocket 4 plus came in a kit with a custom heatsink which replaces the metal heatshield inside and totally screws in place (neat solution), they even sell that heatsink seperately.
Thank you for the heads-up on the PS5. This video was very helpful. I'm not buying a PS5 until March or April anyways. Hopefully by then Sony will have better options for us all.
Instructions very unclear. I got my long flowing dark hair stuck in CPU fan. The PS5 turned into a PS6. Help me!
Why would I replace my internal SSD then if i cant record my gameplay?
I've just bought the WD_BLACK SN850X 2TB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4 NVMe Gaming SSD with Heatsink up to 7300 MB/s read speed which comes today.
