I hope there are some good deals for Canada! I wanna buy a bunch of games for my PC and PS3.

It will end up being about $2000 US for both. The 4TB SSD is only 6.80mm in height, so it easily fits the PS4 Pro. I know the price to performance ratio is not really worth it, but I am fully beind the death of the HDD and the rise of the SSD. I have been SSD only since GT5 came out and it cut the load times in half. Since then I have upgraded each time a higher capacity drive was available. Had a 1TB in my OG PS4, put a 2TB in the 1200 model I bought last year, and now the 4TB for the Pro.

I just finished Spider Man 2 on PS4 today. As soon as I watched the end of the game I deleted the file. This is how much space I have in my PS4, I can not install a game without deleting another 2 or 3 =(

I'll probably need to buy a new HDD for my PS4. I'm already having to delete stuff after buying BF1. No room to install Dark Souls 3 and FFX/X-2 took up more space than I thought they would.

Yes on games but no on hdd hurting. I currently have 7 tb free of hdd space. I have a 4tb and a 5tb plugged into my 2tb xbox one s.

I get games physically normally so it won't, unless there are some crazy digital deals

HDD is primitive garbage that belongs in dumps with reel to reel, cassette, 8 track, floppy, and VHS.  This 1950s magnetic recording has hobbled our technology for far too long.  Say no to the IO bottleneck.

60+ GB/s CPUs and RAM and 1 gig internet and 10-100 gig LAN and we still fucking read/write code and data off a fucking primitive magnetic spindles using magnets at kilobytes per second access speeds.  wtf

You seem upset about HDDs but yeah... been a long time since the transfer rates from HDDs were in the KB range... I mean well they are in the 100k KB range but still, you might want to look at upgrading from whatever it is you are using for KB/S speeds.

Even the cheapest 2TB-SSD costs more than 4 times of an 2TB-SSHD (€500+ vs. €120) while an SSHD is only 4% to 40% slower than the SSD (totally depends of the game) running on an PS4. That means that the loading times on an SSD are only 1 to 16 seconds faster (again, that difference totally depends of the game) than on that "primitive garbage"... not very impressive: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-is-it-worth-upgrading-your-ps4-with-an-ssd

And after you started a game and loaded your savegame, further speed differences aren't even there from this point in many titles since the loading of the next level / adjoining areas is already done in the background while watching a cutscene or entering an area. 

So feel free to waste a lot of money if these 1 to 16 seconds loading time are really that important to you... but until the proportion between speed improvement and cost difference doesn't get better, HDDs and SSHDs still have their place.

For the ill informed a hard drive is a type of sex act.
