The PlayStation 5 in the disc version has an 825 GB SSD, while the PS5 in the disc version only 667 GB. It has been established that there is far too little memory to install a few next-gen games. For example, only the new Call Of Duty with Cyberpunk 2077 takes up around 250GB.
Thus, Sony will launch a new update this summer that will solve the bottleneck that appeared after the installation of an additional SSD. The update will also increase the power of the fans, to allow the system to cool more efficiently. For those who don’t know, Sony has added an additional slot to expand storage capacity. Users only need to remove the cover and install a PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSD to add storage. However, Sony has not yet announced which storage units are supported, so we’ll have to wait.
I remind you that there is also the possibility to add an external SSD via USB 3.0. However, it will only allow the storage of PS4 games, as they do not need a very high read / write speed to run. It is worth mentioning that a Sony representative stated that it is not yet known when the update will be ready. However, the company estimates that it will be delivered on the new consoles in the summer.
