Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the easy installation, compatibility with PS5 Pro and PS5 Slim, and the ability to play physical games and watch Blu-ray movies. Some customers feel that the price is a bit high and that it should have been included with the console, but overall, the disc drive is seen as a valuable addition to the PS5 Pro and PS5 Slim.

    Disc Drive for PS5. Nuff Said.

    It's a disc drive I bought for my PS5 Pro. It works and does as it is supposed to. I believe that Sony should have included this with the Pro. Anyway one thing I will say is if you upgrade to one be careful with installation. There is a metal peg next to the connector and mine was bent. Had I not seen this I would have thought I didn't know how to install it.

    It's a shame it has come down to the consumer having to buy an optical drive to protect our rights of owning physical disc but thats the new reality. No complaints on this disc drive otherwise. It snaps right on, installs and registers online.

    Snagged a disc driver before scalpers! It is worth it for the physical collection since those are usually getting bigger sales than digital. Should have been part of the Pro, but at least it is an option!

    Great replacement for my PS5 disc drive. Installation was simple with a guide, and it works just like the original—reads games and movies with no issues. Quiet, fast, and reliable. Definitely worth it if your original drive stopped working.

    This is a game changer if you bought the digitial console and decided that you still needed or wanted to use your physical disk.. easy to install and looks like it belonged there all the time.

    Ordered it couple of weeks before the PS5 Pro release. So I received it about a week before. Since then the world has gone crazy for these. Not sure what more to add other than yes it loads my games and yes it seems to work fine on the Pro. Hopefully they restock soon.

    The drive is quiet, fast and easy to install. Works as intended. Got this to pair with PS5 pro, a little upset that I was forced to buy one to play my physical media. But that is just a personal option about having to buy accessories. The drive itself is really good.

    Installation was quick and easy other than the horrible sound the old panel made when I pulled it off. lol. I only recommend getting this if you initially couldn’t afford to get the disc edition.

    The disc drive is pretty initiative to install. PlayStation did a good job on making this modular and easy to install. It actually makes the PS5 pro more stable laying on its side.

    My Son is having a blast with the CD ROM. playing his Spiderman game and got me hooked on to it.. best investment for a Christmas gift. over all the PlayStation 5 and accessories are far better than PS4

    No problem getting, ordered online, curbside pickup, everything was easy and fast. The product is easy to replace in the ps5 system, would purchase again, but hopefully my youngest child won’t stick multiple discs in this one lol

    As titled. I'm a bit worried because it vibrates so much that I can actually hear it from downstairs. Hopefully, it holds up and doesn’t break anytime soon!

    I purchased the Disc Drive to install it on the PS5 Pro. Very easy to install. I wish the PS5 Pro had come with a Disc Drive but unfortunately this was the only way to be able to play my physical disc games. I got it on sale and it was worth it.
