How to Increase PS5 Internal Storage: Installing M.2 SSD, Choosing the Right Model, and More

More PS5 games are expected to arrive by 2022 and 2023. Most of these titles could require a lot of storage from your internal space.

This is why it is quite important to know how you can increase the size of your console's internal storage so that you no longer have to delete your current games to install the new titles.

As of the moment, the popular gaming gadget of Sony hasn't reached internal storage of 1 terabyte, which clearly annoys some players. PlayStation 5 only sports an 825-gigabyte solid-state drive built inside the console.

But, you can still fix this using an internal M.2 SSD expansion slot. Here are the simple steps you need to follow to integrate the additional internal storage.

How to Increase PS5 Internal Storage

According to The Wired's latest report, not all M.2 SSD models are good for your console. The expansion slot you must purchase needs to have the so-called heatsink.

That additional internal storage should have this feature pre-installed so your beloved PlayStation 5 would not overheat during your heavy gaming activities.

Once you have an M.2 SSD with a pre-installed heatsink, you can now follow these steps:

• The first thing you need to do is remove your console's cover.
• After that, carefully unscrew the SDD screw and remove the expansion slot cover.
• Once you finish that step, you must mound your M.2 SSD and carefully return all your removed components.
