**Attention** You are actually supposed to put that collar, that came out of the T10 hole with screw, in the T8 hole first, under the ssd, then install the ssd, and reinstall the screw. It acts as a spacer. 4:17
Seriously, thank you. been looking for a 2tb this caught my attention and when i searched for it on yt you were the first to pop up this just confirmed my decision to buy it
Thank you, I just bought a Playstation with that ragnarok bundle. And I was annoyed with the small storage but, this video made feel better about getting this brand of ssd.
The worst part is the smallest screw. That screw is so tight in there and the screw driver they give is beyond tiny so it’s almost impossible to get a good grip enough to not strip the screw. Highly recommend having needle nose pliers handy.
I would not that SSD doesn’t come built with a heat sink the shield that comes with it acts as the heat sink your SSD will overheat if you don’t use a heat sink
$144? Dang! The one I saw was $129, but I ended up getting the $109 one, and didn't know the heatsink was needed. Now I'm looking to see if a specific one is needed, hence me looking at this video.
I do have one question what if you want the games and data you do have on the game drive can you still leave that on your system data without backing it up just don't want to lose any of my game data and save data from my console but just wanted to know if that is an option if you don't backup anything will it just ereas all that data you do have it would suck if I lost my save data and gameplay for final fantasy 16 seens how I am almost done with the campaign and ready to play game plus just about but if you back it up now without a new ssd doesn't that backup delete all your save data and games to so if so I need to know if backing up should only be done once you get the extended ssd drive
Are the instructions the same for PS5 Slim Digital Version? I’m just wondering if I should change the way of installing it on the upgraded version. Thanks!
My ssd wouldn’t read. No prompt when I turned the ps5 back on. I am befuddled. I’m wondering if I demagnetized it during install… Any thoughts? Bad card maybe..? I took the stickers off the card, like I saw in one video…
I did. I heard a click. I even kept the ps5 open and the need of messing around w it so I could jiggle the chip. I bought a Fikwot Jupiter instead and I worked. Although it didn’t work w the GRAUGEAR PS5 Heatsink SSD Cover Set.
The only thing I have to correct him on is the PS5 doesn't actually have one tb it literally only has 500 gb of save space it would have about maybe 750 to 800 gb if they didn't take the extra gb you could have on it and use it for system updates but with the system automatically doing that you get reduced to 500 gb witch is kinda garbage if it was a true 1tb and you got that plus an extra 500 gb for system updates then it would actually have 1tb but it actually is omly factory tuned to have 800gb total on it and as soon as you start it up and get it all setup right at the start you see like 300 or 350 gb just disappear down to like maybe max even with that system data saved for that you might still have maybe the 800gb but that's still 200 from 1tb so I don't think they should have matketed the original PS5 systems with having 1tb because they honestly do not have anywhere close to that even of I look I'm not sure but I added it all together when I saw the numbers that where provided before I had anything downloaded or installed and with both numbers they are to short for it to be 1tb

Not to take away from your video witch I will say was most definitely helpful now I know where to put the pads for the heat sink not sure but what would happen if you put the other sticky one inside the compartment of the PS5 where the ssd stick goes would that actually make it not work just want to know how all that works don't want to do something that would need to be repaired I have a feeling the answer is no just put it only on the top of the tray holder you put just the heat sink on that aluminum tray then nothing on the actual stick that holds the memory and I am going to get the biggest one witch is 4tb that's the one I want so I'm going to ordet that when I can I'm also going to get one of thoae game stands that has the double fan built into it and I'm also going to get the triple fan in the back because I like to stand mine up it's not on the carpet either so i got it sitting on a tackle box my old neighbor was nice enough to give to me because my old neighbor he was actually really cool so I got my PS5 sitting straight up on that without the stand because the screw that was supposed to come in the box I couldn't never find so I'm going to buy that stand with the fan I'm hoping that it comes with the tool I need to screw the screw into the bottom of the stand will come with it and hopefully the screw will be in the box for that and I think the back triple fan will also help I really don't think my PS5 gets extremely dangerously hot and I play for hours sometimes my PS5 is on for all day sometimes when I'm passed out because I feel asleep to watching TV and it went into rest mode it was im rest mode the whole night time and half the day time I have got out of bed that day started it up felt the panels and felt like very minor heat coming off the PS5 but I want to do to also preserve the life of my PS5 to extend it's life span so I can play it for years and then hopefully if they make like a PS6 hopefully I would be able to use all those products for that system also
The pink pad and turquoise squares are different types of pads. The heatsink, through marketed at PS5s, can also be used in laptops and other devices. The other pads are included should you be intendong to install the SSD into another device.
**Attention** You are actually supposed to put that collar, that came out of the T10 hole with screw, in the T8 hole first, under the ssd, then install the ssd, and reinstall the screw. It acts as a spacer. 4:17
Where should I put the gray strip on the ssd or heatsink
I put it on the back of the heat sink itself.
@@MegaTroid05 do ps5 games work while in the ssd bc my external storage don’t work it’s just holds the games but can’t play em
@@83178 yes, they will play from the ssd
What’s better this one or wd black ps5 one
Great vid. Glad you showed your whole experience and process and also appreciate the damn good background music. Nostalgia got me bro!
Thank you very much !!! You made this process so much easier for me . I was so nervous pulling the pannel off , that was the worst part of it for me.
Seriously, thank you. been looking for a 2tb this caught my attention and when i searched for it on yt you were the first to pop up this just confirmed my decision to buy it
Thanks for uploading this video, it was really helpful!
I’ve tried it on mine. That’s M.2 SSD screen didn’t show up.
Thank you, I just bought a Playstation with that ragnarok bundle. And I was annoyed with the small storage but, this video made feel better about getting this brand of ssd.

That's man, great video. I'm going get mine tomorrow!!. I'm excited.
Great having a video in English! 🇺🇸😆
Thank you for making this video , very helpful 🙏
Can you just use the cover that comes in the PS5? I only bought the hard drive and didnt get the heatsink
I would not that SSD doesn’t come built with a heat sink the shield that comes with it acts as the heat sink your SSD will overheat if you don’t use a heat sink
Thank you so much, God bless you
Why not a 990 pro or an sn850x?
$144? Dang! The one I saw was $129, but I ended up getting the $109 one, and didn't know the heatsink was needed. Now I'm looking to see if a specific one is needed, hence me looking at this video.
Does the 109 not come with heatsink
@@83178
The one I got did not, unfortunately.
Did yours come with small green little squares I have no idea what those are for
yes same. i think i tossed them in the trash .
I do have one question what if you want the games and data you do have on the game drive can you still leave that on your system data without backing it up just don't want to lose any of my game data and save data from my console but just wanted to know if that is an option if you don't backup anything will it just ereas all that data you do have it would suck if I lost my save data and gameplay for final fantasy 16 seens how I am almost done with the campaign and ready to play game plus just about but if you back it up now without a new ssd doesn't that backup delete all your save data and games to so if so I need to know if backing up should only be done once you get the extended ssd drive
Also great video, will be installing it tomorrow thanks to you!!

I have no idea about that because I do not have one.
My ssd wouldn’t read. No prompt when I turned the ps5 back on. I am befuddled. I’m wondering if I demagnetized it during install… Any thoughts? Bad card maybe..? I took the stickers off the card, like I saw in one video…
Did you double check it was pushed all the way into its slot?
I did. I heard a click. I even kept the ps5 open and the need of messing around w it so I could jiggle the chip.
I bought a Fikwot Jupiter instead and I worked.
Although it didn’t work w the GRAUGEAR PS5 Heatsink SSD Cover Set.
Mine ran 6210 read speed is that good
I can't get the screw for spacer out
hmmmm
What about a m.2 adapter to a m.2 RAID controller. So you can use up to 4 memory cards.
Can you ever take it out?
yes, watch the video in reverse.......
Thank you for this video it’s very easy to understand when you explained it👍
Is this one better than wd_black ps5 one
I don't know if it is better or not.
After 5 months is it still performing well?
Zero issues. Working like it should.
@@gpellis1 lol I can't complain either. I've been running it since a week after I sent the comment
Can't close the ps5 slim heat sink
this video was made using a PS5 disk drive. Not a slim
@@gpellis1 ya. Can I just use my original cover plate?
@@bryansmith94 not sure. if it fits id say use it
Does this ssd drive come with a heat sink?
mine did. yes,
The only thing I have to correct him on is the PS5 doesn't actually have one tb it literally only has 500 gb of save space it would have about maybe 750 to 800 gb if they didn't take the extra gb you could have on it and use it for system updates but with the system automatically doing that you get reduced to 500 gb witch is kinda garbage if it was a true 1tb and you got that plus an extra 500 gb for system updates then it would actually have 1tb but it actually is omly factory tuned to have 800gb total on it and as soon as you start it up and get it all setup right at the start you see like 300 or 350 gb just disappear down to like maybe max even with that system data saved for that you might still have maybe the 800gb but that's still 200 from 1tb so I don't think they should have matketed the original PS5 systems with having 1tb because they honestly do not have anywhere close to that even of I look I'm not sure but I added it all together when I saw the numbers that where provided before I had anything downloaded or installed and with both numbers they are to short for it to be 1tb
What case is that?

Does this run ps5 games while in ig
I have Diablo 4 and World of Outlaws Dirt Racing and many more PS5 games installed on it and it runs flawlessly.
I have 7 PS5 games on it, and with 12 PS4 games on it it runs perfectly. I still have 1 TB of space empty on it.
Great video thanks 🙏

Do you use the spacer for that?
I'm almost positive I put it in. You can get by with out it if you want.
Thank You🤘🏾
