ugh. You didn't look up any vids did you? I was trying to make a point with it. Here's a link to a vid on installing a ssd into a ps4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8_nt2Dwf78 You only have to remove a panel (no screws) and one screw that holds the hdd in place to remove the hdd. it only takes a few minutes to do. Here's a link to a vid on installing a ssd into a xbox one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNXe_nEjoeo You have to take a bunch of stuff out to get to the hdd plus you void the warranty External hdd's are good for transporting data or using it as a backup. It's slower than a typical internal hdd. If you're using it as a upgrade to your internal hdd, it will just make your console slower and download/install speeds slower. What the hell do you need 2 tb for? How much porn do have? Installing an ssd actually improves how fast your console is and your install times. You can get ones with plenty of space on 'em for a decent price. My whole point is that the ps4 doesn't need to use an external hdd because you can upgrade your internal one easily for the same price and it be fa

 

 

I have seen one video long time back but none recently.  Yea i was trying to say that its an inconveniance to do all of that work just to add a new hdd where we in todays world have external hdd. Plus if you  install  a 2tb and redownload all  of your previous you will only have 1.5tb left which is whole alot different to how its done on xbox one and on top getting those kind of drives for ps4 are far moore expensive for less storage.  I have a 3tb for xbox ond the speed to download and installs are pretyt fast. no different to the speed when using the internal hdd.  For games. i already used 1 tb of the 3tb i bought and its only been few months. Its easy to fill up .  Nah why to download porn when i have a gf lol. Plus  you can stream instead :P.  In nz the hardirive required for ps4 is more expensive then a normal external HDD.  Why would i pay more and get less space.  The whole point is, sony advertised ps4 as  a console for the gamers and how its all about the gamers. Sadly thats not true when it comes to storage. having to buy expensive ones just to upgrade it and avoid external hdd , defeats the purpose of being console user friendly. 


You would have to install an ssd to be able to compare the improvements to a regular hdd. There's a big difference. I don't know how you manage to fill up that much storage space. Unless you're downloading a lot movies or porn and having a lot of digital games. I don't think most gamers use that much data storage on consoles. You can still have lots of porn and still have a gf or wife. haha.  The xboxone lets you use an external hdd's but you get no better system improve from it. The ps4 lets you upgrade/mod your internal hdd with whatever you want. Sony delivered on it's promise.
