Sony has filed a patent that could be closely related to its new PlayStation 5 console: This is a cartridge in a physical format that could act like an SSD in the console so that it can expand the storage space in it. An option that is becoming more and more common on the network and is being used very often.
Sony patents a physical SSD cartridge that can be used in the PS5
This would greatly simplify the process of creating more space for users. Especially compared to the current process that will follow in PS4.
It would be a good step for Sony as users will most likely buy these SSD cartridges directly from the company itself. So when they buy these cartridges, they wouldn’t be looking for or picking up third party options in this area. So for the company, this would lead to higher profits.
For the moment, it has not yet been confirmed whether these cartridges will be used for this purpose or not. In fact, the Japanese company has said nothing about this patent. So we will have to wait and see if it is something that will actually take place or will take place as speculation.
We’ll have to wait a few months for Sony to officially launch PlayStation 5. A console where we can see the logo will burden us with some changes that undoubtedly promise to make it a new sales success for the company.
