The advantage the PS5 has over the PS3 (apart from flat out better hardware) is that you don’t have to do a lot of special stuff to take advantage of the SSD, it’s managed at a hardware level, it will be more like a PC game being able to do very fancy graphics but if you don’t have the GPU for that it just run at lesser settings.
