My PS5 got fried during a lightning storm. Is there any way to fix it?
About a week ago, we were hit with a thunderstorm. I guess a strike hit a power line near us and overloaded our breaker which set the basement on fire. It was a small fire we were able to put out on our own, but various items got fried; my PS5 being one of them. We're covered by insurance so replacing it wouldn't be an issue, but I want to keep all my save data. I don't think I was subscribed to PS+ so it's not cloud saved. Is there a way to diagnose and fix the problem? If not that, then is there a way to get the data from my console before I sell it for parts or repair? I'd prefer the second outcome since I'd get a nice chunk of change and a new PS5 for basically free.
Thank you.
Is this a good question?
