    Bro, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this, I put a 2tb in my digital ps5 but my drive ps5 cover wouldn’t budge, I was so scared I was going to break but this video, showed me the right angle 📐 to remove it, ba da boom ba da bing, smooth sailing and just like that they both have 3tb now, awesome stuff thanks a million

      Ya know I am beginning to think there is a power supply problem, specifically in the digital version, and in relation to a external storage, I’ve battled 2 other ps5’s with a plethora of errors, and they both had externals, I went to the internal on both and just like magic no more errors, I think they used one that barley manages power output to the console peripherals and GPU, and something like a external drains just enough to slowly erode at the system and it’s performance, I may just be building that conspiracy in my head, I haven’t looked at any curves, but it does make sense, I see a lot of posts on Reddit and such related to externals, and I’m leaning towards this being the culprit, I’d love to know your thoughts on it

      Tbh we don't get these SSDs since I'm not from the west so I ordered it from the US, the SN850P was cheaper so I got it, I didn't even realize it was worse, the SN850 is like 400$-500$ in here so the 150$ after discount for the SN850P was tempting, kinda glad I didn't get scammed lol

    That "you should hear and feel a click" part can cause some serious confusion for people with paranoia and OCD. It's just SSD hitting the back end of the connector with momentum, as there should be nothing that actually latches onto SSD. Huge amount of people been saying they never hear this "click" and official Sony guide never mentions about it.

    One thing I noticed is that the SSD is located near the Optical drive, so that's another way to locate the correct panel to remove.
    Note: Digital most likely doesn't have the Optical Drive cut out (I presume)

    Can you use them in a normal desktop PC? I would get the SN850X, but you sadly don't make the 4 TB one available in a version with a heatsink so the 4 TB SN850P interests me a lot.

    Does the standoff go in th3 80 slot alone or the screw too? Why would you not mention the screw you took out and not show what happened to it? Did it disappear? Is it not needed? Also, broke a clip taking off the panel, followed your instructions exactly, it didnt pop up and slide off until i applied extra pressure like all the comments were suggesting... Clip came flying loose smh

    Why did you install the cover for the m2 disk slot again ? To make the drive heat up better ? You buy heatsinks for the drives that you install in the PS5 and then this drive with the heatsink is enclosed in a compartment without the possibility of heat dissipation. Smart as hell.

    I'm not very handy, but this was easy to follow and do. I only had issues with removing the case from the ps5 it self. Had to push/pull quite hard to remove it.. But eventually got it. When I put the thing back together, I could do it easily and fast cus of how detailed you explained it the first time.
    Hopefully the PS5 Pro will have the same system, so I can use the same technique to transfer the SSD to that console :D
