Now I love my PS5 as much as the next owner, but I will be the first to admit that the memory could be a little bigger. Obviously there are ways to mitigate this, deleting and disabling the automatic recording of videos and using the cloud storage are just two examples. But both have drawbacks; the first is limited in the amount of space you can gain while the second is dependent on your internet connection. So what other options do we have?

Well let me introduce you to a new product.

The officially licensed WD_BLACK SN850P NVMe SSD for PS5 consoles provides players with peace of mind knowing that their new and favorite titles are stored on a drive that’s been certified and tested to take on the latest PS5 games.   

The new drive features higher capacity and faster speeds than the previous generation, and an exclusive heatsink design featuring the PlayStation logo. Now available in up to 4TB, gamers can quadruple their PS5  storage – offering more flexibility to store and play up to 100 games. Additionally, the WD_BLACK SN850P NVMe SSD for PS5 consoles offers enhanced speeds compared to the previous generation drive, so gamers can more easily keep up with today’s top titles. Notably, the all-new heatsink design was optimized specifically for the PS5 and offers easy, hassle-free installation. 

The WD_BLACK SN850P NVMe for PS5 consoles retails in the U.S. for $159.99 MSRP (1 TB), $249.99 MSRP (2TB) and $549.99 MSRP (4TB) and is available now at the Western Digital Store. This may seem pricey but can you really put a price on the peace of mind you get knowing that all your saves are safe?
