The April 2021 PS5 firmware update is out now, and it’s most notable feature is allowing for the cold storage of PS5 games on an external USB drive. Sure, it’s not the SSD storage expansion we’ve all been waiting for, but it’s an interim solution that resolves the need to redownload games, saving time and bandwidth.
The manager grabbing the newer firmware version to market is not just aiming at PS5 owners. The update should potentially help UHD Blu-ray players connect to PS5 consoles, allowing even more users to benefit from the benefits PlayStation Now has to offer.
According to a NeoGAF user, the new update finally brings true 24x7 browsing to PS5 users. A demo of the update was published by a Panorama 3 player, and although the tuning differs between the different behavior models, the high capacity USB drive functionality remains intact.
The user explains that old rotating discs and Blu-Ray movies take up an inordinate amount of space on PS5's 40GB hard drive. The grey area where games get saves fight for data space seems especially pressing, which is not totally disappointing when the internal RAM allows PlayStation-quality Game recordings to be recorded on the Blu-Ray discs or your hard drive which you can access at will with USB control. Explaining what kind of console we're dealing with:
"It is a Sony PS5. Its firmware was reissued because, enabling all storage capabilities which enable unlimited save storage beyond 40GB, since checkdisk operation is practically unlimited and the internal capacity is great. That allows you to keep your save data files on the motherboard, and the USB drive is just necessary for transfer with using right firmware (Canada firmware 1.71). You need at least 500GB flash drives as backups for the PS5, ya know collecting computers later call that the PS5 ... without the super-fast readers like the SDXC 3G/2.0 WITH Microsoft XP card, you just need one more USB 2.0 port to charge all the contents on the mother drive through USB power (still not wrong, but not the same guaranties); other files must be saved (esp. PS2 and PSOne and their SFW Blu-ray discs). And if you want better content than most USB fans' devices read this info before buying them."
Indeed it seems almost enough to compensate for the sizable energy required by at least the South Korean retailer initially suggested selling PS5 for ¥.69, especially for in addition to saving the base model's relatively high 37% premium price -- if you compare buying a fifth-generation PlayStation at the time of launch for ¥39,990 in Japan to sitting on a ¥5,800 auxiliary aside for now.
