As gaming moves further away from physical media, people (myself included) need a way to easily access their PS5's digital game collection. You never know when you might want to finish that open-world game you tapped out on three years ago. Granted, you won't remember what the controls are, but it's the principle of the matter.

Whether you're looking for a flash drive for yourself or trying to gift your way into the good graces of the gamer in your life, we've got options from Sandisk that will pump up the storage offerings on your PlayStation. With these high-performance storage solutions, you'll have space to keep playing for the foreseeable future.

For a worry-free expansion installation:

I'm so nervous about cracking open a console to install a drive. What if I get the wrong kind? Where do I put it? I'm not particularly handy, so there's a lot that can go wrong the second I take a screwdriver to my console's casing.

That's why the WD_BLACK SN850P NVMe SSD is such a great fit. It's officially licensed for the PlayStation 5, so you can play right off the drive without worrying about compatibility issues. The read speeds are fast, so you can expect short load times. You can get models up to 8TB, which would give you space for another 150 games based on a 36GB average per game. But the real benefit is how it cuts down on concerns. The brand-new, optimized heatsink is designed especially for the PS5 and slides into the M.2 slot with ease.
