"grab your screw driver"
*GETS DRILL*
it does the same job
Nah fr? @@user-ob7rk4sf6n
its a screw gun. A drill, drills holes in wood or metal. They're different!
Electric screwdriver
It's a drill with a chuck on it. For many applications.
700 GB used to be unthinkable. Games just take up an uneccessary amount of space anymore.
dvd's are an obsolete tech, like gas
@@MhatsNot like gas so no.
That must have gotten approved a decade ago that's literally like what 8 games if you don't play cod or gta
Call of duty sitting at 165GB on my PS5 right now. No way the game looks or feels big enough to warrant that.
"just like gas" 💀@@Mhats
If you plan on doing this, use a manual screw driver, its only a few twists, costs less, and saves you any damage
I was going to say the same. I feel like the drill is asking for damage to the ps5
Would this Ruin the manufactured
!!!Warranty!!!
@@CJFlower83no that’s only if you remove the void sticker/screw which is on the inside on the side with the fan
@@op2001 It's an elec screwdriver not a drill so shouldn't be an issue
@enrique amaya Indeed. We as muslim also following Jesus as prophet. We do what Jesus did too, and we worship the only one God.
The fact that it didn't already come with this much space is borderline criminal.
its a trick so they bleed more money out of you in the long run. they are not stupid after all
yup you can thank sony, i’ve never loved the practices and I’ve been a fan for 20 years but it is criminal giving everybody the bare minimum at launch as always, knowing damn well new game take up more memory. making fans waste more money.. only to have a 1TB console later on…mean while when i decided to also buy an Xbox surprise, surprise, at least they gave me 1TB to start with.
Do you really need more memory at once ? If youre using all of it no way youre playing all the games at the same time.
that ssd is almost as expensive as the console
This is business.
Quick explanation, fast and simple guide to install, included what to do after installing and even added a war zone joke. 10/10 🗣️
Haha thank you 🙏
PS5 now supports M.2 SSD’s up to 8TB.
I need one for my pc. I think i only have 500 gb in it.
Very good! 2TB was too less for me 😂
8TB SSD must be expensive af
@@dmy_tro yeah here in germany around 1000€. But you don‘t get any for less.
Holly crap I need that how much is it
I can get money don’t worry just how much
USEFUL TIP: The "official" PS5 NVMe SSD, that is manufactured by Western Digital, is, (depending on region) sometimes more expensive than a regular NVMe SSD with the same capacity. To save a few bucks, try buying a Gen 4 NVMe SSD other than the "official" SSD upgrade, and if you want one with a heat spreader, you can buy one for $3 or less. Just remember the dimensions for the heat spreader is 80mm x 24mm x 8mm.
You sir will have a very successful life
@@emandnistaw3006wholesome 😂
@@JavidDiljohn1 I got it off Amazon in the US for 169.99 with the heat sink on it’s for 2TB with a max transfer rate of 7300mb per sec or however it’s measured but the highest I could find. Idk if the PS5 maxes out at 6500 but I know 5500 is the minimum recommended transfer rate. It took a long time but it finally came in. It wasn’t the official PlayStation one just the normal WD black I’m happy I have so many games downloaded now and I keep my internal ssd with nothing on it except warzone for the lifespan of the SSD and to optimize the most competitive game for me
Thanks for the info
It’s best to just get this since it comes with a heat sink already
If you guys can’t afford the 2 tb, I have 1 tb and it works wonder, it also help me monitor games to delete that I don’t play anymore
What if u can't afford 1tb too?
@@sleeper5905 then you're fine because you can't afford enough games to max out the base drive it comes with

For ps4, I just used to have an external HD plugged in the usb slot. Worked just fine
You can still do that, for ps4 games. A lot of ps5 games are built around there being a ssd and just wouldnt function on a hdd because hdd are so much slower
So what needs to be done for ps4 at least, is to take an empty HD, format it to ps4 compatible drive, go to settings and ensure downloads happen on the SD and not internal drive.
It was so much easier that way
Unfortunately
But yeah that doesn’t work for PS5 games.
At least you can’t play them directly off the HD what you can do is use it for storage but you have to manually transfer it
You can still do that. You just can’t install PS5 games on it, also HD’s are 27x slower than an SSD so you will have loading screens where as on an SSD your loading screens will be reduced to single digit seconds. You get what you pay for.
I still use one for PS4 games on my PS5. Always helpful to have one around.
Bro forgot to mention its 300$
129 on Amazon rn
Nope its still $300. A price for a whole new fkn game system smfh

Man I was waiting for this response.
Ps2 Master race lol
And those games were buggy and had shitty graphics, you can still play them. Go back to those If you love them so much it is called retro gaming.
How lucky that it just happened to have a slot for exactly this thing already installed. It's almost like this was planned
It was but I think it was for the anticipation of hardware supply to correct.
It was. Sony has been transparent for its intentions by its initial design announcement. This has always been intended to upgrade memory storage.
How are people mad? You can use cheaper non official SSD's just fine, I bought a 2TB for £80 recently, this is way better than the vita's extremely expensive memory cards...
Sony already is I think in loss selling each ps5, probably they couldn’t provide more of storage, given it comes with 825GB of SSD already pre fitted in the system. Or it can be a purely be a business tactic
It was, was never a secret and literally a selling feature that was talked about quite a bit 😂
that loop you built into end and start is brilliant
Ikr! I can watch this video all day long.
This is basically the new age memory card for PlayStation. This is taking me back to the 8MB memory card days for PS2 lol.
MemStick on PSP
Them shots fired at warzone are well deserved 😢
Can you have an SSD and external hard drive? I like to keep my ps3-ps4 games on the external.
@@TheSnapperManmost USB 3.0 or higher storage speeds should work. Not sure if there's a minimum size like 128 or 256GB, but a portable HDD, NVMe or SATA SSD in a USB enclosure will work for PS4 game playback. But you can use it to transport PS5 games to another console.

“Don’t over tighten the screw”
*Uses drill* 😂
It's an electric screwdriver without much torque.
I said the same thing in my head. A drill is a drill. Get a screwdriver. Know when to use certain tools, idc if it’s set at low torque. Once stripped, you’re done.
@@FirstUPdaGREAT Nobody cares if you care. You've obviously not invested in quality tools, which is why you need to do it by hand
@@FirstUPdaGREATa drill is a drill. Good thing he didn’t use a drill. You’re just saying it’s bad because you assume it is, electric screwdrivers are totally fine for this type of thing. It doesn’t have enough torque to do any damage.

Interesting how they have a space for it. It fits exactly and everything…
Just like the Nintendo switch from back 2017 and the Xbox series X and S and none of these need a screwdriver to instal the memory card 😂
@@marcocruz5640 It's not just a plain "memory card".
@@marcocruz5640it’s not just a shitty memory card it’s 2 fucking terabytes
Why wouldn't they have a space for it??
@@averyhaferman3474Because it was strategic. They made it easy for people insert into the hard drive into your console even for people who aren’t tech savvy. Sony knew that their console didn’t have enough storage and predicted that people would be buying external hard drives so they made in extra easy to install
Love the controller holder.
I just got one of these last week! I almost got an external hard drive, but after doing a bit more research, I'm glad I splurged and got this one instead!
Thanks, I just upgraded after seeing this. One note for those that do it, you have to pull up and push over (towards the bottom) to pop the tops off.
Is there a video for it? After watching him i still not confident in it lol
Lmfao yea I broke the 2 upper plastic pins because I didn't realize the push towards the bottom. Oh well I just ordered a vented cover set for the ps5.
Hi buddy
Can you help, I want to upgrade but just wanna confirm do it works fine after installing and after installing do it affects old data in old disk in any way.??
I need one. Now they got a 4TB one too!
I just saw that! But sheesh $350 isn’t for the weak
$340 for storage?? 😀 well now I know what to ask for Christmas or my birthday 💀

@enrique amaya thanks for keeping it short.
For the people in the comments saying this is criminal. Just wait till you find out the standard storage space for the Xbox series S, it’s around 300gb
Also you can use any ssd as long as its fast enough, which is most ssd's of any brand still being sold. Most of them are cheaper too for the same specs
Source:"trust me bro" 😂😂
I had a Series S for about 2 years and i didn’t necessarily hate the console, but it is extremely shitty compared to a PS5 or Series X. Yeah you can only use right at 300gigs of storage on the internal SSD and it sucks ass, if you wanna play games like COD or Destiny 2 then those will be the only two games you can play lol you can only have like 2-3 modern games installed on it at a time because you have only have 300gigs, the only way you can have several games installed at one time is if you just play a bunch of small or older games
They do have the new series s that’s a teribyte but I think it’s 50 more than what the series s was, but still wayyyy cheaper than 160 for 1tb or 250 for 2tbs
Thank you so much dude. You went straight to the point, made the video simple and easy to understand 😊
Your Voice Is So Chill I Can Watch You At 6AM And Not Get Caught
Forgot to mention the price of 130 for 1TB and over 200 for 2tb
can just get a non playstation branded ssd
a good pcie 4.0 kingston or adata 2tb ssd is around 80 and even a 2tb samsung ssd is 130 if you want a more reputable company
That 1tb makes all the difference
Its better to buy a samsung evo nvme
you perfectly edited this short it loops perfectly
Foolishness
I'm so happy I was able to get a PS5 slim

if u can set the torque, the screwdriver will stop before going any deeper. no damage risk

No, i dont think i will.
Not on a 5 dollar Walmart drill...

Update? Still works greatly today?
was the price way less than this one on the vid?
wow so the Samsung 980 pro tb for the ps5?
I just got the same one yesterday works wonders
Thank you
This sounded absolutely amazing! So I looked into buying it and saw how much it is…
No it isnt amazing. Its a company trying to suck as much money from you ask possible. Even if it was a lower price. It's still a scummy business practice and one shills still fall for
buy any m.2 ssd, you’ll be fine
I enjoyed watching your planting and harvesting techniques.
This was very informative! Got all my questions answered. Thank you 🙏🏻💜
Just remember to check ssd speeds before you buy em.
Got this awhile back and I love it! So many games for me to play and not worry about space.
I loved your setup ....simple and minimalistic ❤
Got the 4TB and i fell in love with my PS5 all over again!!❤
Where did you purchase it from
@@des_AT got it thru Amazon at 50% discount during black Friday.
Just so everyone is aware, there is an issue with putting an ssd in the ps5. I have read, and it also happened to me, but the PS5s poor cooling on the ssd shortens its life span immensely. My firecuda 530 with heat sink only lasted 8 months.
Make sure you don't block the exhausts by placing it next to a wall or in a tight space.
And maybe don't place it near a heat source like a radiator, a PC, or a TV that throws off a lot of heat.
@zdspider yeah, my ps5 was in the open with plenty of room to breathe. Also, my ps5 is regularly clean every month and a half so there was no dust. The way the ps5 cos the ssd is the problem.
Maybe you were'nt lucky
Maybe open that little cover
Wow
I like the way Xbox did it it’s so quick and easy to slide the new hard drive into your Xbox without having to screw and unscrew stuff💯😊
It's expensive for that plug and play but I got the 1TB expansion card for my Series X. I'll get a PS5 later on. I'm more of an Xbox guy.
I was blowed watching this video they gotta take they damn ps5 apart just to put a external storage in
@westsiderio3714 shocker, it's almost like people have been doing that for generations. Even more so for pc owners
@@ZombieJWR I don’t own a pc so I wouldn’t know lol. Only been on console where things are simple why ps5 make it hard? 🤣

Thank you so much for this video I love it I’m actually learning because I’m actually getting my first ps5 console tomorrow.
I recently got that SSD for my PS5 and it totally helps me to store extra PS5 games without having to delete them the same way I have with my hard drive for my PS4 games.
Or you could’ve just grabbed whatever SSD was compatible at the time when they first announced this
Had the ps5 since launch and I still haven’t gotten the SSD upgrade 😢
i didn't even have the ps5 yet 😢
i don't have console,i have a potato pc ,however.
yeah I have it too since launch and still no ssd update. I could but I wonder what for? I only play 1 or 2 games at a time and if I want to make space, I move something to the external hdd
what is ps5 ?

Since I bought one of these I HAVE NOT STOP GETS ADS FOR IT. Brilliant marketing strategy.
Remember when you could just insert the disc or cartridge and the game would just start, no installs, no updates to fix game breaking glitches or patch in content they didnt bother to put in, maybe a couple minutes of loading at most

My 2.8 TB is already full, but i do have VR Games. Maybe getting a Pro or slim for the VR headset could give me some relief.......
The transition is smoother than the ssd.
I regret buying one before they made the official one, the ssd I bought was more expensive than the 2tb but had less storage, it was also from WD black
