I do have a question: will I ever need to replace the thermal pad on the heatsink?

So I wanna move my SSD to another ps5 I have, do I need to screw the ssd screw to the original hole it was on or can I leave it at any hole?

To people getting sent here from other videos: the Firmware update happened on 9/15/21 so install your heatsink + SSD to your heart’s content!

I've got a single-sided heatsink already. Can I buy just that tray you have on the bottom. I punched in what you listed in the description but I only found a double-sided heatsink

Damn man I signed up for Beta and never got the email … I bought the XPG Gammix s70 ssd (Adata) with 7k read speed …… and I had actually bought the bottom tier heatsink you mentioned lol…. It came with its own heat sink but I read it was too large …… Now I’m just either waiting for acceptance into Beta or official release smh

Warning Warning Warning Warning !!! If you do not have the 2.0 firmware on your PS5 do not waste your time putting an SSD in it because when you power it on it will tell you
to power down and remove the SSD from the internal Bay.

Can we remove the WD sticker from the SSD?

I wish I would have signed up to beta test a while ago. Now I'm waiting for the access email =( I ordered the SSD already and I would recommend anyone that doesn't have one now to get it on order. Once the main patch hits there might be a lot of people trying to pick them up.

Just to let everyone know, seating your SSD make take multiple attempts to get it installed proper. It took me 4 try's before my PS5
recognized the M.2 drive.

To save alot of people from this headache. What all these youtube channels fail to point out to their audience is, in order to install and upgrade a PlayStation 5 m.2 storage you MUST SIGN UP FOR A BETA PROGRAM and be INVITED TO THE PROGRAM BY SONY. Even if you do sign up there is NO guarantee you will be chosen for the Beta program.

You can leave the cover off. Putting it back on traps all the heat in there. It’s just a beauty cover for when you have no ssd.
