PS5 storage glitch seems to be affecting certain players including game reviewer ACG. Taking to Twitter, ACG explained the process to players as his console wasn't working, "At this time my PS5 is 100% dead. I was having the storage rebuild issues others reported but mine escalated to full errors and network issues/boot. Sony and I were working through troubleshooting when it died completely. So at this time, I will be moving content around."
PS5 Storage Glitch Explained
P.1. At this time my PS5 is 100% dead. I was having the storage rebuild issues others reported but mine escalated to full errors and network issues/boot. Sony and I were working through troubleshooting when it died completely. So at this time I will be moving content around...

He isn't the only content creator dealing with a problem as Jeff Gerstmann has dealt with a similar problem. His is directly tied with the new Spider-Man game, "Seems like putting a PS5 into rest mode while Spider-Man Remastered is running crashes the whole system, forcing that "repair your external drive" process when you start back up. At least that's how it's been for me the few times I've done that today."
If you're a gleeful fanboy of either console, the Xbox launch is also dealing with problems. Expect some kinks to be worked out, and if you run into a similar problem as ACG, reach out to PlayStation support immediately. You may have to send you console back in for repairs.
