PS5 Pro Drives Demand for Disc Drives
Yesterday, Sony officially unveiled the PlayStation 5 Pro after months of anticipation. This high-powered console, priced at $700, does not come with a disc drive, prompting gamers to purchase accessories to enhance their gaming experience. The absence of an integrated drive has led to heightened interest in standalone PS5 disc drives, which are rapidly running out at various retailers.
Where to Find PS5 Disc Drives
As of the PS5 Pro announcements, many retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, and Target are already sold out of PS5 disc drives. Reports indicate significant activity at Walmart, where over 100 drives have been bought recently. The drive's appeal is even reflected in its ranking as a top-selling item on Amazon.
Pre-Orders and Availability
- GameStop still has PS5 disc drives available for purchase.
- Pre-orders for PS5 Pro start on September 26.
- Resellers are beginning to flip disc drives on eBay for inflated prices.
