Q: QuestionDoes anyone know or have any experience if adding this SSD would void the Sony Warranty for the PS5?
Asked by Djvortex.
- A:Answer It won’t void the warranty. They have instructions on how to add storage on their website. As long as it is added storage, and not replacement storage, warranty will be good.
