Hello World! I've been reporting on Sony PlayStation hacking news since 2000 and started PSXHAX in 2014 to cover PlayStation (PSX), PlayStation 2 (PS2), PlayStation 3 (PS3), PlayStation 4 (PS4), PlayStation Portable (PSP), PlayStation Vita (PS Vita), PlayStation TV (PS TV) and next-gen PlayStation 5 (PS5) platforms along with anything else of interest.

This past week Sony officially released PS5 4.00 Firmware / System Software enabling storage expansion support for M.2 Solid State Drives, and below is a list of confirmedPS5 M.2 SSDs that are compatible with the PlayStation 5 console's M.2 SSD Requirements previously outlined.
As more PS5 M.2 Solid State Drives are tested as compatible we'll update the PS5 M.2 Compatibility List below, and for those who've already joined the PS5Scene feel free to share your own test results in the comments that will also be added as time permits.
While there's currently no RPCS4 PS4 Emulator test build publicly available yet, an RPCS4 (PS4 Emulation) Preview video of the current progress from DH can be seen in the Tweets below alongside details via AnnieLeo to quote:
"DH, RPCS3's founder, has given permission to share this quick progress update of his PlayStation 4 emulator. For full disclosure, the RPCS4 emulator is being worked on by DH, who worked on RPCS3 until 2016 and then left to start PlayStation 4 research, there is no overlap from the RPCS3 Team, which will continue to work on RPCS3."
Unfortunately PlayStation 4 Emulator for PC fake sites including PCSX4.com and RPCS4.com surfaced in recent years, but as noted in the Tweets below RPCS4 currently does NOT have a website so to avoid scams it's recommended to bookmark the official RPCS3.net site and follow them on Twitter for further updates.
Recently PS4Scene developer @marcussacana (Twitter) made available on Github a DirectPackageInstaller Tool followed by several revisions including DirectPackageInstaller 5.0.0 for Windows with source code to preview and send PS4 PKGs to a PS4 Remote Installer homebrew application from direct PKG URL links.
