If anyone is looking for one I'd keep checking Amazon, they also were in stock this morning, I posted about it on another gaming forum and it went out of stock, seems like they are drip feeding the stock in as it becomes available.

nikka nobody looking for that.

Doesn't make it any less wasteful.

Everything you buy has an opportunity cost. Not just the item's price but what that money could have done for you instead.

Also PS5 games can be stored on an external drive. For less that half that money one could have 13TBs of total storage. A 1TB internal and a 12TB external. There's the tradeoff to having to move them off the external to play them but you're also getting 13TBs of storage for $400 instead of 4TBs of storage for $1000.

The $600 you saved if for example invested in Facebook at IPO be worth over $5000 today. There's just better stuff to do with money.

its only wasteful depending on how you value the convenience. I wouldn't pay that much money for it, but at the end of the day it's not my money. A 1000 dollars for him to never ever having to worry about space for games this entire generation is worth it. I mean, I don't see the problem, people spend their money on all sorts of crazy shyt, theres someone on here with like 30 dreamcast controllers lol

I'm saying if the system got fried in a storm you lost more money if it took the hard drive in the system with it than you did on the system itself.

There's no level of convenience that sees me putting a $1000 hard drive in a $500 system. Maybe in a PC where it can be used for more than storing console games.

Got fried in a storm? What is this the 1940s where surge protectors don't exist.

And if It dies I'll just get a new one

That $1k is worth not having the play the musical chairs bullshyt you have to do with the consoles and their small SDD 1TB HDD and some 12TB external

If you think $600 is making or breaking anything well...

2TB was my upper limit because this much storage would have made my backlog even more unmanageable than it already is.

I think I can get by with just a 500GB SSD if had to be honest. I only really invest in one game at a time(two if u count my 2k addiction) so I dont really have storage problems like that.

1TB+ in total between the main drive/additional internal should be more than enough…that’s honestly about 20 decent-sized games
