Instructions

Download image from Releases

M.2 Drive Setup (PCIe Gen 4 NVMe)

[!WARNING] This will wipe your M.2 drive.

Disclaimer: Only works on PS5s that have an activated account. Real PSN account or Fake activated via jailbreak.

Do not update your console to activate! Use System backup method below

Step 1: Download balenaEtcher

• Download balenaEtcher for Windows, macOS, or Linux from: https://etcher.balena.io

Step 2: Download the Image Archive

• Download the .7z archive for your desired capacity from the Releases section.
• NOTE: Exact capacity matters - not all 1TB drives are 1000GB: some are 1024GB, same with 2000/2048, 4000/4096; choose carefully!
• The .7z download size is roughly ~95-100 MB for all capacities.

Step 3: Extract the ZIP Image

• Extract the downloaded .7z file.

• Inside, you will see a .zip image file, with size depending on the target SSD:

• 256 GB image: ~380 MB .zip

• 500 GB image: ~670 MB .zip
• 1 TB image: ~1.2 GB .zip
• 2 TB image: ~2.3 GB .zip
• 4 TB image: ~3.9 GB .zip

This .zip is what you will flash with balenaEtcher.

Note: When you load this image in balenaEtcher, you may see a Missing partition table warning. This is expected for encrypted PS5 drives. It is safe to click Continue.

Step 4: Write the Image with balenaEtcher

1. Connect your M.2 SSD (PCIe Gen 4 NVMe) to your computer (using a dock/enclosure or spare M.2 slot).
2. Open balenaEtcher.
3. Click “Flash from file” and select the extracted .zip image for your chosen capacity.
4. Click “Select target” and choose your M.2 SSD.
5. Click “Flash!” to start the process.

Approximate flashing times (varies depending on M.2 dock/enclosure speed and your CPU): - 256 GB image: ~10 minutes - 500 GB image: ~15 minutes - 1 TB image: ~25 minutes - 2 TB image: ~45 minutes - 4 TB image: ~80 minutes

Etcher will appear stuck at 0% for a while, then at 85-99% for several minutes. This is normal, let it finish without interruption! If you encounter damaged image warnings, reboot your pc, redownload the image or use a different enclosure/motherboard slot for the m.2 SSD.

Step 5: Install the M.2 Drive in the PS5

• Power off the PS5 completely.
• Install the imaged M.2 SSD into the PS5’s internal M.2 slot.
• Power the PS5 back on; the console should now see the preinstalled Netflix app, viewable under Storage settings.
• Move app from the M.2 to console storage, then reformat the M.2 drive in under Storage settings to safely continue using it.

Troubleshooting

• If the Netflix application crashes shortly after opening it, reopen it to retry.
• If you see a green text error "Exception" press X or O to retry.
• If Lapse fails you will see a notification telling you to reboot the console, you must reboot to retry.
