As of this posting, sony has not released much technical details. But the ps5 is using a custom, very fast, mvne ssd. Currently there are non on the market that are compatible with the ps5. It is believed that you will be able use an external drive for storage ONLY (not having to redownload your games). You will still have to install the games onto the mvne drive on the ps5. Wait on any storage purchases until sony clarifiers.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can use an external hard drive, I recommend using an external SSD to get similar or identical load times for your games, however if you don't care about load times and just plan to get as much storage as possible for less, I would recommend an external Hard Disk Drive, I'd probably buy one now while they are on sale before the prices increase because I guarantee many many people are going to be purchasing Western Digital External drives and due to high demand for both consoles (PS5 and Xbox) Western Digital may increase their prices.
