I don't get why it can't use the 6x blu-ray drive to play games from. Use the HDD for small frequently used files, but not the whole game. Tlou ps3 install size is 50mb and it runs fine of a 2x blu-ray drive.

At least installs and deleting games is quick. Deleting game data on ps3 was a pain, that's fixed. I delete game data for games I'm finished with, HDDs tend to slow down as they fill up. A 1TB SSD drive would be ideal, but that costs more than the console...

Maybe in a couple years that would be a nice upgrade.


That's the catch with SSDs. They run faster but cost a LOT more, and as you pointed out, a sufficient PS4 sized one is expensive. Sony could make some money selling their own at a cheaper price than the market rate (and not more expensive like PSP Go, Vita, etc).
