~1TB for games has gotten me by just fine on both console and PC this generation. Even if games get up to 200GB next gen I don't see that really changing. One storage upgrade I will probably want to make though is from my current SATA SSD to a PS5+ level NVMe drive whenever the time is right.

Don't imagine I'll need one, unless games become ridiculously large next gen. As long as I can keep an assortment of my favorite games installed for instant access, everything else isn't really a big deal. I have pretty good internet these days, so deleting and (re-)installing games isn't much of a hassle for me.

Why keep the PS4 Pro, if the PS4 games run better and quieter and with less loading times on the PS5?

I move the console around and don't want more dangly bits to move with the console. No power brick, no external HDD and hopefully no more breakout box next gen. I've thought about gluing the thing on top of the ps4 pro. (Good thing I didn't since I got the newer version later with 4K pass through and different connectors for the v2 headset)

I hope game sizes will decrease next gen because of SSD just like Mark Cerny said in that "Road to PS5" conference. So, I will only need maybe 1TB extra storage at best. Probably not gonna buy any extra at launch as I already have 2TB external HDD on current gen and it should be fine for all current gen games without enhancements

They're big, but you went a bit over there. Odyssey is like 96 with all the DLC, and RDR2...doesn't have DLC, does it? That one is sitting at around 120 for me atm.

For the prices a good SSD will have probably won't add any. At least launch. At most I will have some big HDD if the transfer from one to the other is adequate.

Its funny that people even think 3-5TB would be enough for next gen + their ps4 library.

10TB will be the bare minimum, if games would have assets like that unreal engine 5 demo, then 100GB games will be a minimum, many games will go up to 200GB with updates and patches and DLCs. Most people already have at least 2TB of ps4 games. The PS5 will fit around 600GB, thats like 3-5 games.

The good news is that the difference won't be as much as from ps3 to ps4, when we had most games at under 25GB with very tiny updates in the megabytes.

If you intend to install ps5 games, you will need most likely a very good ssd to make the most of the games, the SSD of the ps5 is faster than any ssd currently on the market. So prices will be very high indeed.

6 games installed at once is plenty, I usually play just one game at a time, not common to play 3 games in rotation. So as long as I can play the game of the moment and perhaps download install the next game I can manage with just small hustle.

External storage would be just for storage, then transfer to internal memory, don't think I'll do it first year but I don't intend on buying expensive extra storage;
