Are you looking for even more storage for your PS5? With PS5 games getting bigger each year, it makes sense to want to invest in something that can keep up. Thankfully, Western Digital is here to help with a massive PS5-compatible 8TB SSD that’s up for preorder (see here at Amazon). It has a colossal price tag, but if you’re flush with cash and looking to completely maximize your PlayStation’s storage, it’s definitely worth a look. It’s set to release on September 12.

Alongside its colossal 8TB capacity – which grants you “space to store up to 200 games,” according to Western Digital’s website – this officially licensed SSD for PS5 also features sequential read speeds of 7200MB/s and write speeds of 6600MB/s. It also comes with an exclusive heatsink design that’s optimized for the PS5. This helps make installation simple and easy so you can start playing all of the games you love right away.
If 8TB is a bit too much and you’re hoping to find some smaller options with a lower price tag, don’t worry, we’re here to help you out with that. In our roundup of the best PS5 2TB SSD deals, you can find deep discounts on some of our favorite SSDs at the moment (including a great pick from TEAMGROUP that’s just $110 right now). Keep in mind, though, that some of the SSDs listed in the roundup don’t have a heatsink, which Sony recommends you have attached to your SSD, but you can easily pick one up here for under $10.
