If you're looking for a PS5 SSD upgrade to increase your speeds and storage, then be sure to take advantage of this cashback offer from Samsung.
Getting your hands on a PS5 SSD 2TB edition is a great way to not only boost the storage on your console, but also increase the speeds at which your games boot up. You'll find that Gen4 SSDs run at speeds of around 7,300MB/s for reading whereas your PS5 internal SSD runs at speeds of 5,500MB/s.
This will also lead to an increase in rendering speeds, so you don't suffer from environmental pop-in like, say, mountains randomly appearing in the background when they weren't there a second ago because your PS5 is slowing down.
Right now, a cashback offer from Samsung is allowing you to get your hands on a PS5 SSD 2TB version for less when you pick up certain solid-state drives from it. You can find the deal's full terms and conditions and the form to claim your cashback on its website.
You can pick up the Samsung 980 Pro or the Samsung 990 Pro which are both PS5 compatible and offer a sizeable 2TBs' worth of storage. The Samsung 990 PRO PS5 SSD 2TB is also on sale at Amazon in addition the cashback offer anyway, with £28 off in the first place. After cashback, both of these solid-state drives are at an all-time low price point, so if you're looking for an upgrade, be sure to take advantage before this offer ends on Friday, March 24.
PS5 SSD: 2TB deals
- PS5 SSD 2TB Samsung 980 Pro – £178.97 at Amazon (£138.97 after cashback)
- PS5 SSD 2TB Samsung 990 Pro – £211 at Amazon (£171 after cashback)
Both of these drives benefit from next-day Amazon Prime shipping. You can find more information on how to make your claim for cashback when purchasing through Amazon on the dedicated offer page. There are other drives available as part of the deal here, however these are not PS5 compatible.
In order to install these drives into your PS5 console, you'll need to be sure to get your hands on a heatsink too. These ensure that your drive doesn't overheat once installed in the device. My favourite option is the Sabrent heatsink which is compatible with both of these SSDs and easy to install.
Although you don't need an Amazon Prime account in order to take advantage of these deals, the Prime membership will allow you to take advantage of next-day delivery on these drives along with a ton of other perks. If you don't already have a membership, rest assured that we can hook you up with a free trial.
