PlayStation 5 has been out and about for nearly a year now. Despite being out in the market for months, fans are still finding it quite difficult to acquire because of the pertinent scalping activities. Moreover, the owners were actively looking for ways to customize their devices but similar options were not available for hardware.

In a rather surprising turn of events, Sony has announced that owners can install third-party SSDs. In addition to that, the studio also laid down guidelines that owners need to follow before choosing an SSD.

According to a report by Gamespot, the studio will not take responsibility if anything goes wrong. In the recent blog post, the studio answered several FAQs and also went into great length to explain what SSD drives are. The studio has warned the users that have installed the beta system software will be able to take advantage of the system. Other users should refrain from making any changes to the system and ensure they update their consoles.

This additional SSD storage system will allow you to install more games on your drive and it will also boost boot-up speed. The studio shared a simple three-step guideline for users that they can use to install new SSDs.

• A well-lit room with a table to work on.
• A #1 Phillips or cross-head screwdriver.
• A small flashlight (optional).
