is this a usb 3.2 drive?… no, SATA drives are about 500MB a second. NVME’s (certified for ps5) are ten times faster… (and that NVME is cheaper than the USB ssd)
so why the “Solution looking for a problem” product.
and if you have a ps4, upgrade to a ps5… it is in no way better than a PS5. so, get the ps5 disc version… (with the ps4 that i had, the only disc i had was the original destiny disc, and even then i bought the digital version. 8 years ago SSD’s were REALLY expensive for the size. and it not really reduce the loading times to not noticeable. look for the eurogamer review of using an ssd in a ps4 (8 years ago)
(i just used a larger 3.5 inch HDD back in the day for the ps4…)
