The 8TB SN850X with the heatsink is on sale at SanDisk for $730

Just copped with PayPal's pay-in-4 plan so I only dropped $193 today :mjgrin:


The beast is complete :mjlit:
You can store PS5 games on an external drive. It already came with 2TBs so a 2TB or 4TB drive would have been fine.

With Black Friday deals you could have got 14TB external for cold storage and a 4TB internal for $500 at max and had a couple hundred left over.

I have a 4TB drive in my PS5 right now. 58 games total 24 of them PS5 games and I still have 2.16TBs free on the 4TB and am using none of the internal drive. You could double my numbers and still have over half a TB free. On a Pro you'd have damn near 2TBs free.

Realistically what person is going to rotate 40+ PS5 games and almost 70 PS4 games all at the same time? And that's just a 4TB's potential.

Its not about being realistic, its what he wants :dahell:

He can put an entire body kit and rims on his ps5 if he pleases.

It's all about having immediate access. There's no waiting for a download or an upload. All which while can be fast enough these days, is still various amounts of minutes of time. I have a 4 TB in my PS5 currently and going to take that out and add it to the Pro so I'll have near 6 TBs of immediately accessible games. WATTBA, bish.
