PS5 memory expansion: An external SSD can improve your loading times

Until a few days ago, your PlayStation 5 does not connect with an SSD. Thanks to the latest update 2.0, the M.2-SSD slot, which is located inside your console, is already unlocked for participants * inside the beta-phase.

Better than Sony: In a technical test, the experts of Digital Foundry have detected something interesting - some SSDs are even more advantageous than Sonies's own, already extremely fast solution anyway.

Faster charging times thanks to external SSD

Specifically, DF has taken a Samsung 980 per SSD under the magnifying glass. Basically, the Samsung product in almost all categories cuts congruent to SSD, which is already in the PS5 from the factory. However, there is one exception.

PS4 titles are loaded faster: For PS5 games, no differences can not be determined, whether in performance or charging times. While playing for PS4, the loading times become even faster - and the title tested for almost every DF. However, we are talking about a few seconds here, as Sony SSD is already great.

Here you see the results of Digital Foundry:

But alone the fact that some SSDs we can buy in shops can keep up with the SSA installed in the PS5 is already good news. A final conclusion does not want to draw Digital Foundry yet, but "which concerns the first imprint is that a strong start."

An important point is the cooling of the SSD used by you. According to DF, this should have a heat sink (Heatsink) - this is also recommended by Sony. This improves the loading times again. For example, at Cybepunk 2077, it was three seconds. With a complete playthrough, the end of course lapses.

Everything you need to know about PS5 SSDs:

  • Install PS5 SSD: That's how it works, you have to pay attention
  • PS5 memory extension: Developer shows that Sony SSD specifications are not without reason
  • PS5-SSD: That's the cheapest SSD, which you can install in the PS5

Better transfer rate: Another point in which the external SSD has been tested is the data transfer. A copying process from the internal SSD to the newly installed SSD takes much longer than otherwise. Cyberpunk 2077 For example, one minute and eleven seconds needed to be moved from the internal to the external SSD. For the way back on the internal SSD, the game needed all seven minutes and 18 seconds.

Your PS5 is equipped with an M.2 SSD?
