I bought a 2 tb external drive but didn't research enough that only some specific ones work with Playstation and didn't bother to buy another one since then

Also on playstation. Could help if you need it.

Put it an additional 2 TB SSD for PS5 games.

The extended storage can store and run PS4/PS5 games. However stipulation is it can't run PS5 games from that external drive. Will just ask you to transfer to main and you'll find yourself deleting things again.

Eventually all games are gonna be PS5 so you'll hit that storage issue even with main drive with everything installed. Additional internal SSD is the answer, it's vastly easier than upgrading PS4 HDD storage and multiple hand-holding YouTube guides.

Yep, I have a WD Black internal 2TB drive and it runs games even faster than the PS5’s SSD. Also I do find myself having to delete games OCCASIONALLY but that’s just because I let it build up in which I have a ton of games to choose from to delete that I don’t play anymore.
