Topic	Why can't you install PS5 games directly to an external hard drive?
MixedRaceBaby 11/08/22 1:25:18 PM #8:	I think only ps4 games can be played directly over the hard drive, no? that's because they didn't require SSDs since ps4s had HDDs built in. PS5 assumes it will be played on a gen4 pcie NVME SSD so yeah, even though USB can reach those read write speeds, it just says nah gimme dat NVME. so internal storage or the m2 slot inside. i guess it could test every hard drive that gets plugged in, but sony said nah go by an nvme. --- For the mixed race babies! <cite>MixedRaceBaby posted [p:969281742] in Why can't ...
