This. We know any SSD will have lower loading times vs HDD. I don't see the point of knowing if we save 20% or 40% time. Totally pointless.

But OG PS4 stock HD vs Pro stock HDD is a much more interesting comparison because this is what most people are interested in and could show hardware improvements in Pro concerning HDD accesses.

No it's not because there won't be much differences.

OG PS4 SSD vs Pro SSD would be interesting. Mechanical drives suck, no matter if you put them into a PS4, a Pro or a new computer. Especially the comparison is off if it isn't the same drive you are going to test.

The long loading times on PS4 (and other consoles) are only partly the fault of the HDDs inside, they aren't the only bottleneck. Something else has to be the cause of these long loading times on PS4, XBO and other consoles. Not only SSDs but also HDDs can't show their full potential in these consoles.

Or why else are multiplatform games (The Witcher 3, Fallout 4...) loading faster even from an HDD on a PC than from SSD on a PS4/Pro?
