Bit excited ?
Very! I didn’t expect to get one today, I’ve run out of big Xbox games to play and I’ve started back in work.
Good to know, thanks.

Plenty of AIOs, laptops and PC motherboards won't take an SSD with a heatsink.

Quick! The scalpers see a new opportunity now - buy every M.2 SSD they can find.
Already done. Ordered the Gigabyte AORUS 2TB M.2 PCIe 4.0. coming Friday!
Ah, welcome to the blue side
I’m sure you’ll find just as much entertainment !

Brilliant! My order is coming Thursday not Friday cannot wait to actually have space on my ps5
Yep, finally can bin off the external HDD. Switching ports when I want to plug in my PSVR was annoying.

Agreed although I don't have an external drive connected to mine I hated deleting games to make room

I assumed he meant one that cones with it, rather than one that is permanently attached. I'd have thought normal mobos would take them though- normal as in standard atx.

Depends really some of them are copper / metal stickers. I would leave it on.
I'm in 2 minds on adding an m2 drive. On the one hand the convenience of extra space would be good. On the other I currently have 15 games installed and I only ever play 2-3 games concurrently (at the moment it's hades and deathloop).
I think I will hang fire and wait for the prices to drop.

Dont you use the front type A for the camera and the rear two for the processor and HDD?
I'm of the same mind with both super-fast internet and the ability to offload unused PS5 games onto a HDD until needed do I really need to expand the internal?
Yes they announced on the blog that the M.2 update will be "tomorrow".
I am like you. But some people seem to feel to need to keep 20 games on their console and dip in and out.

A 1TB NVMW (WD SN850) as dropped about £20, from about £170 now to £145 now on a certain site. It's very good value at moment, but I also got a 4TB HDD attached so that's a LOT of games on tap anyway a few minutes away.
How easy is it to install a heatsink on these? I cant find any 2TB drives in stock anywhere. Can get the firecuds 530 2TB from OCUK but it has no heatsink. Was thinking of putting my own heatsink on or a aftermarket one. There also a lot cheaper without one on.
