Follow this guide to install an M.2 SSD in the expandable storage slot in your PlayStation 5 Slim.
Increasing your PlayStation's storage with an upgraded SSD allows you to store more games, movies, music and other media on your device locally.
Before starting this repair:
- Make sure your M.2 SSD is compatible with your PlayStation. M.2 SATA SSDs are not supported. Your SSD should have a heat-dissipation mechanism, such as a heatsink or thermal pad.
- If the SSD you're installing has previously been used and still has data on it, back up the data before installing the SSD. The formatting process during setup will fully erase the drive.
