I've got a PS5 slim with the disc drive.

Never used the disc drive since I got it.

Can I remove the disc drive and buy a new side panel ?

I would just leave it as is it mate? I have a slim disc version and a Xbox series x and haven't put a single disc in either couldn't tell you if the disc drive worked on either tbh

Dunno if you can buy just the white side panel but certainly if you buy new panels they come with both disc and digital sides

There will probably be a discount on PS+ in trhe next couple of weeks BTW.

If i didn't resell my games, gaming would cost me a fortune. Reselling allows me to play some games for almost free.

My last year of PS Plus has been a total waste of money. Hardly switched my console on at all. Mostly been PC and Switch.

Ditched discs years ago. Never looked back.

This. They are usually cheaper than digital too for some bizarre reason.

Anyone have a single charging station for a PS controller? Plenty double ones around but I only need one. I have found a tower type thing that you can sit your headphones on and has USB inputs out the back for other stuff. Pretty nifty but I'd prefer a white one. Also has RGB lighting around it which I'm not keen on as I'm not 12.

Any recommendations?

Lack of digital competition.

Looks good. Razer also comes in white, found one pretty cheap on the bay. Bought it. Razer also do a "universal" one, however seems it only applies if you universally use only an Xbox controller.

Yep it does come in white too. I'm very happy with it, it's worked a treat.

All this talk of digital purchases and I'm still complete opposite, unless there's a very good sale on makes no sense to me.

I don’t buy many new games but if I really want it and it seems replayable I’ll just buy it digitally. I’ve not bought a physical game since Hogwarts Legacy, which I then sold after completing it. GOW Ragnarok is the only PS5 disc I own and that’s because I’ve never completed it - bought second hand with the credit from Hogwarts. Every thing else I buy is via digital sales.

Discs are clutter, and hassle for me. I cba with reselling as that means effort.

Razer controller charger arrived at the weekend. Great bit of kit. Sturdy and well made. Ordered myself an xbox version I was so impressed, which should be here today.
I had my TV off the wall as was fitting a Govee backlight so took the opportunity to tidy all the cables up a bit. Decided to plug the Razer into PS5 USB at the rear. However it doesn't charge when its off. Went to my system settings and its already set to keep USBs powered for 3 hours after PS is put into rest mode (which I never do, always just shut it down). Put it into rest mode and its still not charging, my media unit has a grated front and the orange standby lighting from the PS5 is visible. Is there a work around for this or should I just plug it into a power socket? I also threaded a USB C out the back of the Xbox in anticipation of the cradle coming but I would assume this will be the same?
