Yeah when you look at games like The Witcher which can take upwards of 70GB and the fact that the PS4 system files consume about 20-40GB of the drive... ontop of the fact that in a 500GB SSD you're actually going to have 465GB since the number writen on the box is always based in Bytes and it's 1024 of those per KB and 1024 of those per MB and another 1024 of those per GB so yeah I mean you're looking at being able to install maybe 7-10 AAA games on a 500GB drive or closer to 5 games like The Witcher. |
Sorry but another small correciton needs to be done here.
The space of an HDD is calculated by using a Standard Base 10 system so that every KilobByte is calculated as 1000 Bytes, whereas a logial KilboByte is calculated using a base 2 system and is actualy 1024Bytes.
So as you go up each factor the disparity is larger and larger. For exmaple a 1 TB drive actually nets you 931 GB instead of 1024 GB which is a real Terabyte.
