Because all operating systems, whether a PS5 or computer reserves a certain amount of it’s internal storage to work correctly, you ever have a computer with little memory and it starts working all funny? That’s why You won’t be able to use any random HDD to play PS5 games either, as they are not as fast as the PS5 insane SSD that isn’t even matched by PCs yet.
The PS4 and PS4 Pro have become infamous for how loud they are when switched on, so much so that the gaming audio is often drowned out by the abrasive fan noise emanating from the console. It made using them a nuisance, so I’m relieved to confirm that the PS5 is whisper-quiet. Handily, Sony offers a video guide to the process. Granted, the Xbox expansion cards are a lot faster to set up, but if you buy a large enough SSD for your PS5, you shouldn’t have to break it open again for a while. Specs and technology
Why 825GB Is Enough For PS5
Previously, the only true rival to this PS5 was the Xbox Series X, which features similar specs, but now it has been replaced within its own house by a new and slimmer model. When it comes to choosing between the PlayStation and Xbox ecosystems, it will likely come down to your preference of exclusive games, as well as the various accessories and services on offer.
audio is being hailed as a major feature of the new generation, a feat achieved by the console’s Tempest Engine. This allows for hundreds of simultaneous audio sources to be registered at once, instead of being limited to 50 as in the PS4 and PS4 Pro. Third-party games don’t always make use of the PS5’s 3D capabilities, but in exclusive first-party games, such as Returnal and Ratchet & Clank: A Rift Apart, I’ve seen it used to brilliant effect. You can experience the effect with pretty much any pair of wired headphones, but Sony’s Pulse 3D Wireless headset is an affordable and sonically impressive option for the proper wireless experience. Graphics and performance
As gaming technology advances, game files were supposed to get smaller due to improved rendering and compression but do you seriously think that will be the case? Just like the Xbox Series X, PS5 is capable of 120fps performance when paired with displays that support HDMI 2.1, although two years into the console’s life, there’s still a relatively small number of games that can reach such echelons of performance right now, and the graphical concessions are often too much for some. The PlayStation 5 reserves around 20% of its internal SSD for the PS5 operation system leaving around 664GB for usable storage! This is only 10 full sized PS5 games for storage space, not a lot at all. The latter only launched in 2023, and already has a decent game library, including Horizon Call of the Mountain, Resident Evil Village, No Man’s Sky, Star Wars: Tales From The Galaxy’s Edge, Thumper and Rez Infinite.
If you buy both Demon Souls and Spider-Man ultimate edition that takes up 20% of the SSD by themselves! That’s isn’t too many games more and your hard drive is approaching fully capacity! Sony has released several PlayStation exclusives for the PS5, including Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, God of War Ragnarok, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart and Horizon Forbidden West. Sony also brags an advantage over Xbox for virtual reality fans, with the PlayStation VR 2 an optional extra – albeit an expensive one. Sony has faced some criticism for not making the most out of the PS5’s hardware due to its insistence on making exclusive games compatible with the preceding PS4. But that did change with the release of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. The speed at which you can load existing games is welcome, although it never reaches the heights of Xbox Series X. When comparing the PS5 against Microsoft’s console in a selection of third-party experiences, the latter came out on top every time.The "overwhelming majority" of the more than 4,000 PS4 games. Some PS3 and PS2 titles playable via PlayStation Now.
