Forums - Gaming - How full is your next gen HDD?

I am using about 45gb so I have some 230 ish GB to go on my ps4 (3.5" mechanical 3tb drive connected by data cable)

My Xbox has whatever is left from new minus profile data space as I factory-defaulted it and haven't touched it since.


Really? I thought that didn't work on the PS4?

Also, why did you default your Xbox One?



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Still 400gb+ on my PS4. I have AC4 digital and Resogun for PS+, the other games physical. I'll probably never full it, I buy digital rarely.

All PS4 games are fully installed to the PS4. The disc is only used for the install and authentication purposes

I didn't notice that tbh the install times weren't too long. I just have killzone and btf4 physical, I guess helps to prolong the life of the console.

It installs the majority of the game as you play. It also helps the console be more quiet and improve loading times. :)



I have 1700 gigabytes left.

Was considering selling it but didnt get round to it.



400 GB free in my PS4 (500GB)

I removed all the games to make the hardware upgrade. Today I buy Seagate 1TB SSHD.



A little over 200 GB left (PS4)

Once that sucker is full, I' m gonna get myself a 2 TB HDD. They should be cheap enough until then.

loads of space left on PS4 as mostly bought Disk games so far, but not worried, when it does run out ill just slot a 2TB in, which will be dirt cheap by that time.



space is the main issue i don't have a xbox one or ps4 with the mandatory installs.

Now with other news like you can't get DLC or patches (i.e. GT5) soon so people are kind of forced to move onto GT6 pisses me off. Meaning I cannot unistall GT5 or I can't get the content again. So a console with mandatory installs kind of limits how much you can install.

Hardware makers will need to go down a similar path as PC where users can download the installers for DLC, patches etcc and back them up separately. That way I can install uninstall games as I choose fit.
