If they launch the PS5 for $499 they might have a smaller cache SSD (up to 256GB) along with a 2TB HDD, but I can't see SSD prices collapsing enough for them to go for SSD only

Duude 1TB flash storage is cheaper than 2TB laptop mechanical drive + 240GB flash storage. And why do they need 256GB flash storage? Between 64GB-128GB flash storage is enough, it can store the OS and the most important files for 1 game. So if Sony or Microsoft goes HHD + flash storage I assume it will be 1TB + 64-128GB of flash storage it makes the most sense to me.

But in the end I feel almost 100% certain next-gen will have 1TB of flash storage. It will probably be the cheapest and fastest solution for the entire next-gen. People need to think the entire generation and not just first or second year, flash storage will probably drop a lot in price for the next 5 years. About the other specs I'm still on 9TF navi gpu along with 8 core, 16 thread zen2 cpu(2,8 Ghz) and 12GB of VRAM maybe 16GB depending on price.

That would be awesome and I have to imagine it would help having less moving parts in there when it comes to cooling and durability
