My friend bought the PlayStation 5 National Bank CD-ROM version, and knowing that I know something about game consoles, he asked me to take the machine and help him transfer the data on the original PS4 console and install the solid state. I have to do it anyway, so I will just code and write a tutorial, and then there is this article. How about it, let me explain slowly.
▶️Transfer PS4 console data
The first step is to transfer the original saved data from the PS4 console to the PS5 console (Tips: Transferring data will not overwrite or delete the data on the PS5 console or PS4 console. During the initial PS5 console setup, you can transfer the data of multiple players ).
⏩PS4 console: Prepare for data transfer
. Log in to the same account as the PS5 console ( Chinese server account ).
. Update system software to the latest version.
. Press the Options key while viewing trophies and select Sync with PlayStation Network to sync your trophy information.
⏩Connection method
Connect the PS5 console and PS4 console to the same network. If you need to increase the transmission speed, you can connect the PS5 console to the PS4 console through a network cable. Do not turn off the power during the transmission, which may cause data damage or loss.
⏩PS5 Console: Data Transfer
PS5Be sure to transfer data during the initial setup ( can transfer data for multiple players), please follow the on-screen instructions when entering the data transfer stage (make sure to turn on the PS4 console and PS5 console, and then connect them to the same network using a WiFi or LAN cable).
When the PS5 console displays the message "Ready for data transfer", press and hold the power button on the PS4 console for at least one second (until you hear a beep).
On your PS5 console, select the data to be transferred (it is recommended to transfer player data, , and games can be downloaded again through the network). During the data transfer, your PS5 console will automatically restart. After the console restarts, you can start using the PS5 host, thus completing the transmission of multiple player data (Tips: PS5 can transmit multiple player data only during initial settings, PS4&PS5 must log in to the national service account ).

PS5 finally welcomes support for M.2 SSD to expand PS5 console storage. Due to limited built-in space, PS5 games that are not played temporarily are stored on the external hard drive in the form of backup, and then copied back to the console when you need to play PS5 games.
Let’s first understand some of the requirements for expanding M.2 SSD to avoid purchasing a non-compliant solid state drive and causing replacement failure. The requirements for expanding PS5 console storage using an M.2 SSD are as follows:
- Interface: PCI-Express Gen4x4 M.2 NVMe SSD
- Storage: 50 GB — 4 TB
- Type: 230, 2242, 2260, 2280, 22110
- Thickness: 1.25 mm
- Width: 5mm
- Speed: Recommended reading speed 5500MB/s and above
This time, my friend bought KINGBANK KP260 For the 2TB version, the official nominal read and write speeds are 5000MB/s and 4500MB/s respectively. The main control adopts a new-generation process Lianyun main control chip, which has lower power consumption and is more stable. It has high-quality Yangtze wafer particles. The writing life is up to 1200TB. It comes with a three-year warranty and comes with a 0.8mm thick metal heat sink for effective heat dissipation.
KINGBANK KP260 2TB version uses Lianyun MAP1602A as the main control, and the storage particles use Yangtze Memory wafer TLC3D NAND flash memory particles.
In order to better serve the PS5 stably, a cooling vest is very necessary, so I bought a cooling vest.
First, place a piece of thermally conductive silicon wafer on the heat sink under the shell
Then put the KINGBANK KP260 Align the 2TB solid-state drive with the circular notch of the heat sink under the casing
Attach the thermally conductive silicone sheet to the upper heat sink of the flow guide type, and then cover the upper flow guide type heat sink with the KINGBANK KP260 2TB solid state drive, aligning the circular notch with the circular notch.
Screw on the four screws provided with the heat sink and you are done. Then you can put the KINGBANK KP260 with the heat sink installed. Install the 2TB solid-state drive into the PS5
First, power off the PS5, then remove the base of the PS5, and then place the PS5 on a soft platform with the side with the PS logo facing down and the AC power interface facing you.
Grasp the edge of the lower right corner of the cover with your right hand, grab the edge of the upper left corner of the cover with your left hand, gently lift the cover with your right hand, and then use a slight force to the left to remove the cover.
After opening the cover, you can see a rectangular cover covering the expansion hard drive compartment on the side of the optical drive, and it is fixed with a screw on the left side.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws on the left side of the spare hard drive compartment cover.
Open the compartment cover and insert the M.2 SSD solid state drive that needs to be installed, and then remove the screws on the 110 specification and the gasket .
Place the spacer into the groove corresponding to the size of the M.2 SSD, tighten the screws to complete the installation of the M.2 SSD, and then restore it in sequence. After completion, connect the AC power cord, connecting cable and base, then turn on the power and format it M.2 SSD work (Tips: If the heat dissipation vest exceeds the hard disk compartment cover, it is okay not to install it).
will prompt you to format M.2 SSD after booting, select " format M.2 SSD".
Wait patiently for the M.2 SSD to be formatted until it is completed.
After the formatting is completed, you can see that the reading speed of this M.2 SSD solid state drive is 4685MB/s. The above completes the entire process of installing the M.2 SSD solid state drive. The installation process is very simple (Tips: must not work hard to achieve miracles).
The newly installed solid state has 2.04T free space, and you can download games happily again. Have you learned how to do it?
With this setting, new games can be installed on the newly installed M.2 SSD (Tips: operation method Settings → Storage → Installation location).
⏩Solid-state drive speed test
⏭️Copy game test
Using the game "Dragon Among Us 7 Where Light and Darkness Go" for testing, capacity: 43.68GB, first press the " option " button on the handle, and then select " Mobile Games and Apps"You can move games to the newly installed M.2 SSD solid state drive.
The game migration process is very fast. The capacity of "Dragon Among Us 7: The Departure of Light and Darkness" is 43.68GB. It took about 38 seconds to complete the game migration, which is very convenient.
⏭️Game running test
was tested with the game "Dragon Among Us 7: The Descent of Light and Darkness" that is free for PS PLUS members in August. Because it takes a long time, I used a video to show it. There was no lag during the entire game, and the loading process was also very short. PS4 & PS5 dual versions were given at that time. Remember to download the PS5 version, the picture will be better and better.
(Tips: PS4 games are recommended to be migrated to external hard drives, because PS5 supports external hard drives to play PS4 games, freeing up space to install PS5 games).
