PlayStation 5 Slim users now have the flexibility to easily swap and register the detachable disc drive between different PS5 Slim consoles. This feature was revealed in an unboxing video by Youtuber Mystic, who demonstrated the simplicity of the pairing process for the disc drive. The PS5 Slim offers a 'standard online handshake' for pairing, thus facilitating the purchasing of second-hand drives or replacements without complications.

The PS5 Slim is the new, and eventually, sole variant of Sony's console and is not significantly smaller than the current model. It is expected to hit the retail shelves in the coming months. With such convenience and forthcoming availability, the PS5 Slim is set to be an attractive option for gamers seeking a more streamlined design and possibly creating a robust second-hand market for PS5 Slim disc drives.

As the launch date approaches, gamers and prospective PS5 Slim owners can look forward to this enhanced user-friendly feature along with other improvements that Sony's new console variant is likely to offer.
