These See-Through PS4 HDD Covers Might Just Be the Coolest Way to Customize your PlayStation

by Giuseppe Nelva on December 10, 2014 1:37 PM 

Sony has been selling HDD covers for the PS4 for a while in Japan, and they just recently started in North America, yet those covers may seem a little gaudy for those who prefer a sleek and clean design.

Strolling around Akihabara, I found something that is very possibly the coolest way to customize a PS4.

The Japanese manufacturer Cyber Gadget released a set of HDD covers in four colors, but what sets them apart is that they’re see-through, and when they’re assembled on your PS4 they let you see the hard disk bay and the surrounding protective shield surrounding it, giving the console a definitely fetching mechanical look.

The accessories, called Scratch Guard Cover, are actually designed to make scratches and dirt less visible than on the original glossy cover.

While a western release has not been announced, it’s possible to find them at some retailers that ship to the west, like AmiAmi.

I like the idea, but mine would have to be black. Or maybe red.

The current faceplate looks kind of cheap

Hm... I actually think they look stupid and cheap. I usually like transparent cases though.

It's just lame that all you can see is your HDD, aka the most boring part of your console.
