I wonder if Sony wanted to do one like the ps5 and ps5 slim and had a video ready to go for next week?

Well tough to shit sony, too fucking slow. Good job to the leakers giving us some content over the weekend.

European gameshop should have some Brazilian focus on their customers and their precious warehouse storage. There is no need to keep that warehouse space occupied.

>the SSD is soldered onto the motherboard
why would you do this
Planned obsolescence at its most annoying.
The regular PS5 also does this >.<
The SSD should be user-replaceable like the PS3 and PS4 did with their HDDs

It is, it called M.2 socket.
It is technology used in PS5 to make most advance piece of kit in entirely world.

It’s not a normal commercial SSD. It’s custom built specifically for PS5. It’s tied to the I/O controller also.

You can still add an SSD to the PS5.

Yeah but when the SSD eventually dies, being able to replace it is important for the PS5's continued usability. What happens in 20ish years when the SSD is out of writes or dies in some fashion? Will adding an SSD make a PS5 work even if its internal SSD is dead?

The last thing anybody has to worry about is the built in SSD failing. It’s made to last.

It’s custom. You can’t compare to commercial SSD write longevity.
