Forums - Sony - What if I put this in my PS4?

First the PS4 is not capable of that speed. 5400RPM is recommended. Even if it would do the speed you would risk overheating.
Second, this is SAS, which the PS4 is definitely not capable of.

I recommend the Seagate Laptop SSHD 1TB.

7200 RPM is fine, it has been proven to not overheat a PS4 but you are correct, Sony recommends a 5400 drive

Seagate Enterprise Turbo SSHD

The Seagate Enterprise Turbo SSHD is a 2.5″ 15K SAS HDD coupled with 32GB of eMLC flash that focuses on exceptional dollar-to-IOPS performance and capacity. With an estimated performance increase of 300% over a 15,000 RPM HDD

holyshit... 15,000 RPM.  Will the PS4 take advantage of this speed?

It won't fit! Form factor: 2.5", 15mm

PS4-HDDs have to be a lot thinner (9.5mm or less) 

If I had to choose now, this would be it: http://www.alternate.de/HGST/HTE541515A9E630-1-5-TB-Festplatte/html/product/1092911?

But I'm waiting for the 2TB-models, perhaps the Spinpoint M9T: http://www.seagate.com/www-content/support-content/samsung/internal-products/spinpoint-m-series/en-us/samsung-m9t-internal-ds.pdf



I watched a video on this comparing traditional, hybrid, and SSD hard drives for PS4. SSD ended up on top of course, but only let Killzone load another 3 seconds faster. The hybrid loaded everything about 2 seconds faster -- probably the better deal for your money.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

so... the PS4 is a "she"?

I'll be honest, I thought this was going to be about Titanfall.

15k can cause a lot of vibration as well. Wont cause immediate problems, but could over time.



Something like this or a regular 7200 RPM drive are the only worthy upgrades

Try it first before calling us dirty. You might enjoy it.

You only have experience with the 360 in bed. The PS4 is on another level!

So the Ps4 is better?
