Still waiting for those internal memory ps5 cards. Been using my PS4 Seagate 4TB with my PS5 with not much problems. Last patches have ironed out the few bugs from launch

You can’t play off the external do to the fact that the PS5 games are designed to run off the very fast internal SSD. PSN: chucknorris078

Simple solution would be for Sony to release a proprietary external SSD based on the internal one and charge an ungodly amount for it.

Funny. She calls out “chip shortage” but the scalpers running bots to buy up the PS5’s don’t seem to have that problem.
