A little Update now you can move ps5 games to the Extertal storage but only play it if its on the ps5
Wait really?
Deadass
It suuucks that you can't play them from external drive🙄
@@danyalves2 even if the on a ssd drive ?
Even in the wd? I have the Samsung one and know this is the issue so was gonna get the wd to cancel that out
I'll clear this up, the internal SSD of the PS5 has faster read and write times than external SSDs. It's around 7000MB/s. The WD Black P50 is 2000MB/s, which is why it was faster to copy the games over to the external SSD, than copy games back to the internal console SSD through the external SSD. You will need an internal M.2 SSD like the SN850 to play PS5 games.
You re the Fckng best ! Thank you!!!
Not all capes wear heroes!

Thank you for the video, this really helped me a lot setting up my P50 WD Black USB Hard Drive. Greatly appreciate it man, keep up the good work
Sony recommends People to plug in External Hard Drive to the back for faster speed and its more reliable that it won’t disconnect for no reason even if its plugged in
I just use a regular WD 2TB External Hard Drive that I got for only $40 after taxes because I had BB Points and the Hard Drive was on discount sale
Recommend you plug in the back of console better transfer speed 👍
Faster than USB c ?
Exactly,plugging it in to the front is a bad idea
What the hell are you all talking about??? Its the same excact speed Sony just recommends to plug it in the front thats it.
Love your vids man ❤️❤️❤️
doesn’t need to be hooked up to the USB-C port on the front the two on the back have the exact same speed so you can use the USB-C to Type A included in the box.
Those externals are a lot cheaper than the internal ones that go for like 350 plus
So you gonna tell me I can get the T7 Samsung for like $150 or so and it works on the ps5 no problem? Meanwhile a WD P50 is like $300. Wouldn’t ppl just buy the Samsung if they work exactly the same? Am I missing something?
Great video. But as i test it before you can use your external ssd with those two usb 3.2 in the back of the ps5 too. Just buy a female type c to male regular usb converter and you can connect those external ssd to the back of the ps5. The speed is the same because despite the front usb 2.0 that just for changing the controllers the other two usb 3.2 in the back and type c in the front are all have 10GB speed support. 😃👍
PS5 supports up to superspeed 10 Gbps USB. The P50 needs superspeed 20 Gbps to achieve 2000 Mbps speeds
That mug my guy! Where’d you get? I need one 😂😂
Friend at Sony gifted it to me 😬👊
1:00 i have a question
will formatting erase all data on my drive?
I would like to use the same drive for my PC and future Console, but would suck if I couldnt use it for both.
Yes, Pretty sure it'll delete all existing data on the drive once formatted
@@cxls will partitioning the drive fix this? I have never partitioned a drive before, and im not sure if its possible.
Great vid. Im running out of space too. Cold war just updated yesterday lol. What monitor are u using by the way?
Monitor is the LG 27GL850. I love it 😄 Scroll through my vids, I have a bunch of videos on the monitor 👊
What about buying a nvme Gen 4 and putting it in an external enclosure and using it until we can put it inside the ps5
Can you not play ps5 games on it still?
i little late bro but im looking for an SSD right now as im typing this for Ps4 in hopes of using on ps5 onces i do decide to purchase 1. i mainly want an ssd to help boost the ps4 loading times. as someone who has used several which do you honestly recommend bro? WD P50, Samsung T5 or T7? ( for ps4 and 5 in the future)
But can it actually run the PS5 titles from the External itself or would it be like my regular external where I need to put a ps5 game on my internal to play im only seeing PS4 titles played
Mine is 2 tb Seagate ssd drive I used it on my PS4 Pro I just plugged onto the PS5 works very well no slow down or any problems 😍😍😍😍
But can ps5 really utilize transfer speed over 2000?
so if you want use usb port c for ssd, how should you charge your headset?!
Never use port C. Use only back ports
Nice stickers lol
The P50 marketed speed isn't supported by the PS5 so don't get the P50 for PS5. It's simply overkill and you won't be able to take advantage of it's highest speeds.
homeboy's got 2 pictures of belle delphine on his ps5 🥶🥶 drippin like you just pissed your pants sheesh
When i did it - ps5 told me to plug it into the back of the ps5
The back usb a port is high speed port ports in the front regardless if its USB c its not faster
It transfers SLOW, Beacause your using the Front port, not the REAR usb. Use the Rear lol
that's what she said
Anyone has experience with sandisk extreme
The p10 has been working fine for me and its quicker than the p50 in my opinion.
NO! P50 is much faster! if you need more storage the P10 is fine but if you want faster load times P50 hands down.
The 10 is faster for me than the 50 wd
Will external ssd be able to run ps5 games later on?
Yes there should be an update later on
Can you get 120hz in you play warzone in External Storage?
Yes you can
Yes I tried it there's no difference can play online multiplayer no lag
PS5 documentation says to use the rear USB ports for more reliable connections as the USB-C can disconnect for no reason. Look it up tool.
And yet I've seen mutiple reviews saying this drive needs to be plugged in through USBC to even hit its max speeds.
So who do I listen to?
@@MilkshakeGuruTTV seems like the back ports are more reliable, yet i've read both the front C port and back usb ports are the same speed. Back forsure though as USB A is always trusted since day 1.
