the 2tb gen 4 drives are around the same price (and don't have a heatsink)

One I’ve had my eye on is 60 dollars less already, 50 with heatsink bought separately.

They’re only gonna get cheaper and more discounted from this point on. Especially during Black Friday. I wouldn’t be surprised if you could get one for around 300.


They just started offering these a couple months ago

I’m glad they dropped these late cuz I would’ve went OD and bought the 2TB drives for both the XSX and the PS5…1TB is suffice tho

You'll receive no argument from me. It's absurd. Vita memory card levels of fukkery going on here. Worse in fact.
the Vita basically required a memory card. this is just optional additional storage

Nah as the gen trots along more storage will be a must. ~800gb is not going to cut it. We're only somewhat being spared now because of cross-gen shenanigans. I mean I suppose it depends on what type of games you play. If you're into evergreens like CoD, 2K, Forza etc the argument "that you can just delete it once you're finished" doesn't hold water. Goddamn Cold War is 250GB last I checked. Avengers is something like 150GB. Flight Simulator...100GB. I mean HDD cold storage is helpful and is how I deal now but the transfer speed is painfully slow and all the shuffling shyt around gets old after a bit.

To your point though, yes, the OG/OLED Vitas were literally unplayable without a memory card lol.

I get by on around 1TB on PC. it's nice having a lot of games installed, but truthfully I don't really play more than 4-5 regularly. my internet is good, so it doesn't take me long to reinstall if I need to
