PS5 SSD Upgrade: Installing 2TB SSD + Heatsink

How to Install an SSD into a PS5. Sony have unlocked the PS5’s internal SSD, which allows you to install an additional SSD into the PlayStation 5. Since the Public Beta released I’ve tested different SSDs on the internal bay and installed them with and without a heatsink. This is my quick guide for installing an M.2 NVMe SSD (2TB) into the PlayStation 5. Plus how to use a heatsink if you buy an SSD without one.

I'll run through the different options (250GB - 4TB), installation, new menu settings and gaming tests. Although it might seem complicated at first, this process will only take 5-15 minutes with one screwdriver.
