Can you use any external hard drive for PS5?
Can you use any external hard drive for PS5? Any external HDD or SSD that connects via USB 3.0 will work with PS5 (and PS4 too), and will give you lots of room for all your games.
Can you launch PS5 games from external hard drive?
You can play PS4 games directly from the external SSD, but not PS5 games. You can only store them there to free up space on the internal drive. But now a new version of the PS5 OS allows you to use the previously hibernating extra M. 2 hard drive slot inside the PS5.
Is 1TB enough for PS5?
There’s no 4TB PS5 SSD from WD just yet. The sweet spot for value is the 1TB model, which should provide plenty of extra room to store the best PS5 games. It’s often on sale, too, so we’d avoid paying MSRP unless you’re in desperate need of space.
How many games can a 1TB PS5 hold?
Even if you mix in some PS4 games and smaller indies, you can realistically store 10-15 games on the drive at a time. After that, you’ll need to delete games and redownload them if you ever want to play them again.
