You can expand PS5 storage with the Samsung 980 Pro SSD
No hassle and install right away. The Samsung 980 Pro SSD is specially made to expand PS5 storage.
The PlayStation 5 has 825 GB of SSD storage available. Over time, you too will run into a problem. Especially if you buy games digitally. Namely the problem that storage runs out quickly. Especially games like Call of Duty with many updates can consume hundreds of gigabytes of your console. If you like to have all those games installed on your PS5, expanding the storage is inevitable.
So, where to shop? Sony has set a number of requirements for expanding storage. Ready-made products are available in the form of the new Samsung 980 Pro SSD. This M.2 SSD is equipped with a required heatsink. The drive is designed to fit in your PS5. Two variants will be released and will appear on the market at the end of this month.
Actually, this Samsung is even more powerful than Sony recommends. For example, the company recommends a read speed of 5,500MB/s for the PS5, but the Samsung can achieve a read speed of up to 7,000MB/s.
The variants I’m talking about are the Samsung 980 Pro with 1 TB of storage and a more expensive model with 2 TB of storage. The dollar price is $ 249.99 for the entry-level and $ 449.99 for the more expensive model.
