The RAM crisis is here and SSD prices have shot through the roof. Why? Because data centers are buying them up and, if that wasn't bad enough, SSDs rely on NAND flash memory chips which are now in short supply as more resources are pumped into AI hardware.
This is terrible news for PS5 gamers, who are now having to part with ridiculous sums of cash for basic storage upgrades. Your best bet right now is to find something on discount, which is exactly what's happening at PS Direct and a few other retailers right now.
Today's PS5 storage deals
I wasn't too hot on the WD Black SN850P when I reviewed it last year, finding it to be quite expensive for what it was despite its acceptable PS5 performance.
With prices skyrocketing across the board and supply extremely limited, however, the priority for most PS5 owners is just getting their hands on anything that is compatible.
As an officially licensed model with a built-in heatsink, you can be sure that this will work perfectly with your PS5 or PS5 Pro right out of the box.
