Ps5 on 4.03 crashes when external SSD is connected. Please help...
----SOLVED----
Hi everyone,
This might be an skill issue from my part as I am new to the scene, just wondering if someone could please lend me a hand.
I have a Samsung EVO 960 SSD 250 GB exFAT, that I have tried connecting to the PS5 with now two different enclosures and I am having the same issue.
Enclosures:
Orico M2 Nvme upto 10Gbps
Ugreen M2 up to b10Gbps
I originally thought the orico was faulty, so I just bought the Ugreen. Unfortunately, the second I connect the enclosure, the PS5 crashes. I have tried all the different ports. It does not crash the PS5 if it has not been jailbroken, it happens after the exploit has taken place.
I have tried jailbreaking with the enclosure connected, but the Y2JB won't run.
After Y2JB jailbreaks, I have Payload manager come up and run etaHen 2.5B, ShawdowMountPlus, back pork and nanoDNS.
I have tried connecting the enclosure with one Payload active at a time, but I think the issue is not with payloads but with the jailbreak.
P.s
\- this was also happening with the website exploit (umtx2).
\- it happens with another spare SSD that I have ( Samsung 256GB PM981 Gen 3 exFAT).
The PS5 is launch edition, bought in Japan (if that even matters)
What could I be doing wrong? Could you please help me!
Many thanks in advance.
🙏
Solved:
Ugreen enclosure with Samsung PM981 are working.
Details:
It seems that there were two issues...
- The PS5 might not like the Orico enclosure.
- The Evo 960 might be faulty. ( Loads up fine in windows and files transfer to it fine, but there could be something going on with it, does not work on the Ugreen enclosure either, PS5 throws a message something like drive format not recognized, even though it is formated to exFAT)
I decided to format the Samsung 256GB PM981 with allocation size 256 and I placed it in the Ugreen enclosure, it is working!!!
Thank you for those who suggested ideas.
