A must have for PS5 owners
purchased this drive since I was in need of more storage for my PS5 which had pretty much no space left on the internal storage. The installation process was extremely easy, the only part I'd consider hard for anyone inexperienced with opening up the PS5 is popping off the side panel, but other than that it's very straight forward. Once installed and formatted the drive works extremely well and moving games from the main storage to the extended is amazingly fast, moving a 200GB game in 1 minute. I believe that if anyone ever feels they're tight on space for their PS5 this product is a must have, it gives you plenty of space to work with, the speed is top of the line, and the installation is an easy one time deal.
