the only think i hope for is ps5 has a better patching system. back when i played destiny patches were every few weeks. i had to keep a minimum 80 Gb free in order to download the 1 gb patches in order to keep playing. annoyed the crud out of me.It does.
It was mentioned in the Cerny talk.

idk if that's just conversion or whether this 10% free space thing is legit.It is.
SSDs have "overpovisioning" for a few reasons.
Part of it has to do with the way that SSDs write data. Data is written on a higher level than reading. So if you want to make a change to a file, you have to make a copy of the file with the new changes in a new spot.
Imagine when you write, you have to fill an entire notebook.
You have a notebook already with a few pages written in.
In order to update that notebook, you need to start a new notebook, copy the old info and the new changes in one go, and then wipe the old notebook.
So in order to work you need to have a notebook of space available.
