Are people asking for an SSD expansion card? 

SSDs that are PS5 compatible are currently less than half the price of the Expansion cards. I don't see many people asking for one.

Yeah, as great as it would be to have a simple plug and play solution, there's absolutely nothing wrong with having a broader selection of SSDs with varying speeds and storage at a much cheaper price with the minor inconvenience of removing the side plate and manually installing the SSD. Sony learned their lesson with the Vita when it comes to proprietary storage lol.

The Series X/S expansion cards, you're paying a large premium for convenience. Not to mention, only 2 options to choose from in terms of manufacturers, so there's not enough competition to bring down prices in any meaningful way. 

TBF. Sony consoles have always been good about storage since PS3 allows users to upgrade with standard storage options.
