Exactly depending on the application or availability or ease of use. That's why I put the 5 cars toghether being Better. Its defimetly possible but how often does it happen? Or would not you think that even if possible, or more efficient it would be way more complicated and more expensive for what you are actually getting out of it? I think if you talk to any project maneger in the world they will tell you that throwing money at a problem with diminishing returns is not thr best option. 

Its not what we belive. Its what tim Sweeny himself said. The CEO of epic who made the engine. And many said including me that its just a demo feturing the ps5 features. Where it to be made for the Xbox it would show things not capable on PlayStation. Thus tech demo is in no way direct xbox vs ps5 thing but some are really trying to make it so.

I will never try to censor someone. But in the same regard people have a right to show their displeasure with what others are doing. They could both ignore each other. No one here is in anyway trying to say that what he is saying is false just that is not a real comparison. Raid is not a factor in this topic there should never be a need to bring it up.

Of course RAID is a factor because it’s a factor on PC. It seems silly to rule that out because it’s not common when you’re making comparisons to console hardware that isn’t out yet and an engine for games that are years away. By the time any of us can experience anything being said by Sweeney, all of this “PS5 has a better SSD than PC!!!” nonsense will have aged very very poorly. 

Basically he was presented a challenge in regards to PC hardware and he found the answer and it bothers some of you. It’s basically this going on right now:

Y’all object because there’s no refuting it. In the end it doesn’t make a lick of difference because again, by the time you can utilize this engine and hardware he won’t need to use a RAID setup to prove PC is better, there will be numerous drives on the market for PC that are superior. UE5 games will be looking and running better on PC hardware.

Console people fall for this PR every gen. Break the cycle.

The reason people object is because the point is if you'd put the PS5 SSD in RAID or a similar setup in PCs, it would be better than current RAID setups. The SSD solution in the PS5 is unlike anything and that's the point. But it's countered with "yeah, but let me put 3 slower SSDs together and it will crush it. That isn't the fucking point.
