How to get your disc out of the PS5 when the console isn’t working

What do you need for the tip? Apart from the PS5, all you need is a Phillips screwdriver and a little time. Before doing this, you should also turn off your console and unplug all cables.

Note: The following steps are at your own risk! MeinMMO accepts no liability for damage caused by you.

Thats how it works:

  • First you remove the base of your PS5 by removing the screw on the bottom.
  • Then you put the PS5 on the table so that the PS logo is pointing down and the drive is pointing to the left.
  • Grasp the console by the top corners and gently lift up and down to remove the cover. You need some strength to lift the cover.
  • Now you can see the inside of the PS5: on the rounded side you can see a fan and on the other side a large, gray area. This is the drive.
  • You should see a small black dot here. Underneath is a screw that belongs to the drive.
  • Take the Phillips screwdriver and turn the screw clockwise. Then the disc should come out of the drive.
