From personal experience, this is a breeze. Power down your PS5, remove the faceplate, then you'll see the SSD slot. Slide in the SSD, screw it tight, put the faceplate back, and boot up. You'll be prompted to format the new drive. Done!

First, turn off and unplug your PS5. Remove the faceplate by gently lifting the corners. Locate the SSD slot and remove the screw. Insert the SSD, secure it with the screw, replace the faceplate, and boot up your PS5. Easy peasy!
