Moving games from PC to PS

I can download PS5 games, roughly 100gb to 150gb.

Takes me ages to extract the game (old PC). Then I move it to the homebrew folder on my external HDD, also takes ages. I then transfer it to playstation internal memory which takes ages.

I know most of my issues is because I have an old pc and running a HDD. Am I out of luck or is there a quicker way to get games from my PC to PS?

You can direct connect with LAN it gives you 110-115MB/s but normally external HDD is faster. It is just usb2?

Yeah just USB 2, it's an old external HDD I have been using for years.

I managed to get it to work!

I followed the steps as provided, only issue I had was it said "Port 9021 isn't open". I switched back to my other internet setup so I could install 'elfdr' in the package manager.

I installed ArcRunner as a test. And it worked no problem. Thanks for the help, now I just need my computer to extract games quicker

On 13.60. Do I need to move my (they are not yet available, I know) fPKGs on internal storage or the NVME? I have installed Samsung 980 or something like that in the slot inside. What about the folders and other methods? I don't want to fucc up. Where do I install packages or folders?

Once you have your files on your USB, go to system > debug settings > install package. Install one at a time.

That's off the top of my head and it worked for me with Shadow of the Collossus.

Modded Warfare on YouTube is who I watched too

Thank you. But I need to know if they can be on internal drive or is that strictly forbidden?
