Waddlez 07/29/23 6:18:02 AM #1:	I'm looking at getting an internal SSD for PS5 and was reading to update the firmware. I don't have a PC with an M.2 slot to update it. It looks like maybe the latest update was in March 2023. Is it likely that if I buy the SSD now it would come with the latest firmware? Or do things like this come with vanilla version regardless of production date? --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ll36rxs0DB1qhmn4do1_400.gif http://img4.joyreactor.com/pics/post/gif-cats-kitten-box-366664.gif <cite>Waddlez posted [p:975131491] in SSD purcha...

If it's anything else, then you can just plug it into your PS5 and play. <cite>Trelve posted [p:975131566] in SSD purcha... [t:80522395]...</cite> <quote>What M.2 are you looking at getting?

Doesn't look like an update is required, but some people say it might increase the speed? --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ll36rxs0DB1qhmn4do1_400.gif http://img4.joyreactor.com/pics/post/gif-cats-kitten-box-366664.gif <cite>Waddlez posted [p:975131591] in SSD purcha...

I've tried searching to see if they're being shipped with more modern firmware but I can't find any information one way or another. I think you'll be fine, to be honest. <cite>Trelve posted [p:975131616] in SSD purcha... [t:80522395]...</cite> <quote>I have that drive, and haven't updated it at all.
