Im not sure of all the differences. I dont really want to spend more than I need to and dont care whether its discs or digital so long as theres enough data.

Both consoles have the same storage amount. So if you don't care just go digital.

Digital is 449, disk is 499

Though you can often find the disk on sale for 449

-It's smaller
-Slightly more storage (1TB vs 825GB)
-The version without the optical drive supports buying one separately
-There are 2 USB-C ports on the front instead of 1 USB-C and one regular USB
-There's no upright position device included

The system supports a separate disk reader you can buy and connect.

So if you have the digital system you can buy a separate disk reader for it later.

Hows this for a deal? For some reason the Spider Man 2 bundle is cheaper than without. Its a PS5 Slim with disc attachment for $449, and theres $25 discount if I pick it up in store.

It's basically a deal I've seen a couple times in the last year (without the $25 additional), but the only better deal I've seen replaced the extra $25 with an additional controller for the $449

0%, but hey, it's still a good deal.
