Thank for showing us the actual size of the free space we get. Almost everyone else I’ve watched never bothered showing or checking it out so this helps a bit more for me.
The install of the M.2 was super easy thanks to this video! The rest was the same as the PS5 OG.
One of the easiest SSD installations ever.
It’s exactly the same on the original model
I know. That's why I'm saying it's the easiest SSD installation.
Xbox series x and s be like
"Is our SSD installation a joke to you"
@@chetankalyanreddyarabandi2818 the price yes, heck my wallet nearly cried watching it 😅😅
Just have a question I'm new to the ps5 and I also have the slim version will the 1TB work in the slim version
This is the video needed.. I kept searching for the slim
Hope it helped
been wanting to upgrade the space on ps5 as 1TB ain't enough, thanks for the video
wow! love it, because I've been wanting to know this before buying a ps5, storage is very important to me!
Glad you liked it!
Wow thanks for showing us the whole process it really helps I found out what I wanted to know from this video 👌🏽🙏🏽
Looks like a super easy install for the M.2 drive, thanks! Still running a PS4 slim right now but likely will grab the PS5 slim this month. Looking at adding the Corsair MP600 Pro LPX 1TB hard drive since it's gotten great reviews and is reasonably priced. I could also plug my existing 2TB external USB mechanical hard drive into the back as cannon fodder LOL. I was not impressed with the PS Plus price increase a couple of months back and will unfortunately downgrade my membership during the upcoming Black Friday sales when my Premium membership expires.
is ps plus premium worth it
@@af1199 I would say grab Extra on sale.
I'm a computer nerd, so forgive me if I say something that people don't understand...
This video answered the one question I couldn't find an answer of after a lot of Googling:
How does the PS5 handle the M.2 SSD?
A) Does it use the drive in RAID with the internal drive? (internal drive + SSD = seen as a single drive.)
B) Does it read it as a second drive, showing 2 separate drives.
I was expecting A, but it turns out to be B. Interesting, but not bad.
(this is an old video ,...i know)
@10:20....... at the bottom of that menu...it says "KEEP IN HOME" that's how you PIN it to the home screen so you can see it....
The OG ps5 says 667GB, so actually the slim is about 200G more.
It's still not worth the upgrade for just 200gb. I like this version mostly for its size
I got my slim Wednesday and I have already uset all my storage 😅😅
As long as you ps5 is on the same account and it’s converted to your primary system it makes sense the SSD extension would still let you play the games. Works the same if you have a external ssd with steam
Best & most simple ssd video
Thank you thank you. For some odd reason I was afraid I was going break it.
Looks easier to remove the x4 plates off than the original ver! Man the og ver plates can scratch the matte plastic
Yep true
nice setup with the ssd nvme drive
Oh nice. Ive been wondering if we would have to format it again when we add it to the slim. So nothing got deleted from your ssd when you added it to the new slim?
Thank you, I liked your video, the most important question I had is if I need to set up again my again, but I can see I don't need. Blessings bro
amazing video helped me out alot
Glad to hear it!
Do you like this better than your old ps5? Considering trading in for smaller size
The PS5 Slim has the sake power as the normal PS5, but put into a smaller model. People are also thinking the design looks weird, and the disc drive seems to be sticking out more
Thanks for the video!
Why did you spend more on a slim version if it runs the same? Just curious...
@@nonozera because I travel with mine and it be less bulky and my launch model has coil while since it was new. So just little annoying
@@bobbymiller5297 I see. The extar storage is also plus.
Thank you so much for making this video.
@@nonozerayes it is
i never have a ps5 before i was looking if the WD Black can be install to the systems and this video help alot thx man
Your welcome. It's very easy
New here hi Marc from texas😁love your videos.
Thanks for watching
So a regular Phillips would work first screw and inside screw?
Hey do i need a grounding bracelet or something liek that before i install it or no
I deleted astro lol, bruh im getting sold on the slim version after watchin this. But still might get og soon instead. Also, you dont hv to utilize the cloud if you dont want to for saves?
Question: should I add the SSD before or after the setup? Or it doesn't matter? Tomorrow I will get my PS5 Slim.
I saw another video that said you want to setup BEFORE changing storage. 🫡
Looking at getting one for the kids. Should I spend the $50 more to get to fake 1T or save the money and use it for the SSD? Thanks
You should try install a budget SSD with lower read/write speed than recommended,
Quick question, is this the same size ssd space as the regular PS5?
Thanks bro
Great stuff
Do you have to unplug everything? Then out the sd card?
Do you have any idea why the 2TB version of this won't work in a slim? Tried in two different slims, won't work.
(SN850X Game Drive+Heatsink)
Transferred everything onto it, traded my original, installed in the slim and nothing.
Does not even REGISTER anything being in there. So I can't even reformat if I wanted too.
I returned the slim and reinstalled into new one, same thing.
Sooo... Any ideas, I'd appreciate. I mean, if it suddenly died on me less than 3 hours hours after I traded in, I mean...I don't know how to test it.
Taking off the side plates on the slim are night and day compared to the OG ps5
Feel like I’m going to break the plates on the original, was a stupid design if they intended for the plates to come off.
So can you download the game straight to the extra storage and play it from there? Or do you have to redownload to the console storage to play the game?
You can play the straight from the SSD card
@@Marcthegeek This is the main reason I'm gonna get a 2TB WD SSD instead of an external hard drive because you don't need to transfer PS5 games from device to storage when you use an SSD. Main culprit for taking up space is COD, 200+ GB.
so the ssd u put in can play ps5 games off that or is it like an external where its just ps4 games
You can play PS5 games if the external SSD
Is the heatsink already applied to the SSD? Sorry dumb question. The one on Amazon says “with heatsink.”
Yes this one already has the heatsink attached to.
@@Marcthegeek thank you so much for clearing that up.
Please what do you mean by a Phillip screwdriver can’t a normal screwdriver work?
I done the same, but my ps5 slim doesnt recognise my ssd. I tried many thing but still not works! Any help?
Wow. If you followed the proper steps, the ssd might be bad. Or it's not a Gen4.
@@Marcthegeek On My previous Ps5 was worked well. I just swaped to ps5 slim, and it stoped works. I have no idea...
@@attilatoth8781omg i have the same issue ! did you end up figuring it out ?
@@kimlovesmilfsHey buddy. Not yet. Still waiting for some ideas, but only one thing what it could helps, is formating manualy the SSD. So If you are able to connect Ssd to Pc, try to format and try again. Maybe that is could works. 🤞🏼 but If you solve the problem, please let me know 🙏🏽
@@kimlovesmilfs Hi guys, I’m having the same issue 😢 did anyone end up figuring it out?
I have the wd sn850x heatsink ssd I got it on sale on amazon and it says it ps5 compatible. I’ve seen it too in other videos I’ve probably attempted to. Install it and reinstall it like 15x already I’ve put the washer correctly and all maybe it’s the screw idk if I’m over tightening it but I’m sure I’m not I do it until it’s solid enough and also I put in at the angle and insert still nothing comes up with the ssd , I’ve done with the og model and the recent slim still to no avail , Any suggestions?
I bought the wd sn850x today and I'm having the same issue
@@clawfinger1970 from Amazon? Perhaps it’s
From them or something I’m not too sure
@@clawfinger1970I’m having the same issue did anyone find the fix?
Very nice
So, is that slot an additional slot in conjunction with the built in Storage?
Yes. It's an additional slot.
I’m trying to update call of duty but it saying it’s not enough space it’s saying to free up space ? The game came with the PS5 how do I keep updating the game
what is the least tb you recommend having for a ps5
If you're downloading most of the games, I would say no less than 2TB
Does anyone know if you can install an internal ssd upgrade AND use an external usb ssd at the same time?
None of the videos seem to cover this question.
Hi! I have tried to install this same SSD, but no matter the angle I push, it never makes that click that keeps the SSD up. I have tried over 20 times and the PS5 never recognizes it. Perhaps there’s an issue with my unit or is there a trick to it?
Same
It's like when your 300 lb Aunt goes on weight loss for a week and says she's slimmed down. That's the PS5 slim basically
Does Sabrent heatsink fits with the slim?
Why did u sell ur original tho isn’t it the same
Anyone know if I can install a compatible ssd on a brand new ps5 without doing the initial set up of the system? or should I set up the ps5, update, etc and THEN install the ssd?
Does the new ps5 comes without ssd??? or has another ssd installed somewhere else
It comes with this compartment, so you can add an extra SSD if your choice.
Does the OG ps5 can hold 2 ssd also or this can be only on slim model @@Marcthegeek
@@kolonelgun only 1 ssd expansion
???But when he opened the ps5 slim there wos no ssd inside of it? does ps5 slim comes without memory??? @@gtone339
Curious, if the memory out of a PS4 would work in a PS five anybody try that yet?
I will say it smaller and easier to get to the console but don't think ti wise for em to get this when i own a PS5 already. Just wish they woudl have came out with differernt colors.
I'm sure they'll be face plates you can purchase to change up the colors just like with the original ps5.
I meant come out with different colors instead of the white.@@poopsnorkeler
Waiting for my Samsung 980 1TB to arrive. Got it for $73 brand new.
That's a great price
@@Marcthegeek that's what I said lol.
Will the WD_ BLACK 1TB SN850X NVMe work for ps5 slim version
Yes it will work
@@Marcthegeek ok thank you I appreciate it
I recently installed my M.2 and my connection speed has tanked considerably, does anyone know if this may have something to do with it's installation or is it just my internet acting up at an unfortunate time, I run a LAN cable btw.
The SSD addition should never affect your internet. Maybe you need to restart your router or modem.
@@Marcthegeek I did and was hoping that would fix the problem as well, or wake up today and see my connection was better, but nothings changed still running slower than usual :/
$159 at Best Buy(2TB)
Can someone tell me what size screw
Phillips #1
Why dont you show your wifi password 😡😡😡
Why could you show us with the og drive in rather than it being empty ?
One of my favorite RUclipsrs thank you for your content and videos, my brother God bless you I just purchased the call of duty slim. I don’t know why, because I already have a PlayStation 5 OG model in a Spider-Man edition as well.🤦♀️🙌🔥🫶🏾
