I'm considering buying some extra storage space for my PS5. Last time I was out of town, my partner tried to play a game and they couldn't, because I deleted it to make room. They went to download it but it was out of space, so of course they didn't want to delete anything. That makes me sad because I want to encourage them to use it and game lol.
Plus, I think it would make it easier rather than always downloading and deleting things.

Have other people bought extra storage for PS5? What kind would you recommend?

Do you go for internal or external? Do you have the heat sink if an internal one? Is 4TB enough or overkill? I think I saw that amount somewhere once (unless I imagined it) but maybe 1 or 2 TB is good, and probably easier to find.

If you play a game physical or digital doesn't change something for the installed game on the PS5. The ps5 doesn't run games at all from the disc, that would be way to slow, so you comment doesn't help at all for the problem of the ov

Yes, this is precisely why I like the PS5. You can freely install any game from any disc, and have fast loading times. This wasn't true on older consoles.
