Unfortunately, using USB does mean slightly longer loading times in many cases — in the region of 10 per cent. If your PS4 Slim hard drive is too limited in capacity, try first to upgrade it to 2tb hard drive. Some games are pretty badly optimised, so their save files take up a bit more space than is really ideal.
Perhaps this is a PS4 bug that will be squashed in a future update, but for now you should approach 8TB drives with caution. Download speeds for that and my PS3 were always comparable. Even Xbox one maxes my connection that is direct competitor of Sony. I actually have answer from you guys support in my email saying that bandwidth is limited to around 50 Mbps per connection, this can be worse with heavy traffic.
Thanks Ageranu for the tip! Have to give it a try. Is it possible to download my games in my friend ps4 then move it to my new ps4 because my old one not working? Your trophies are attached to your psn account but games would more than likely have to be reinstalled. Does the external USB need to have its own power suply, or does the PS4 power it throught the usb connector? That depends on the hard drive. But 3. I think that depends on the type of HDD, as Bumblebee says.
Which HDD is best? I have a seagate for my wii u and my ps4 is completely maxed out XD also, would I need a Y cable? Why the pointless minimum size?
If i install a agame to the external hard drive , will i still need to insert the disc to play the game? What happens if i lose my external drive with my games on can i redownload them or what and can i take my games on a external drive go to my friends house log in as me and play my games. Now, if you try to start a game the following message will show up:. To install this application on another storage device, first delete it, and then download it again or insert the disc for it.
Your downloaded games will stay in your library — you could just re-download them to a new HDD. I have changed my internal HDD 2 years ago, since that time my console seems to run more hot, the fans are almost always on.
Or it will automaticly format the usb one? I know this question will be somewhat off topic, but I think it would be better to simply upgrade my internal HDD. But I am uncertain which internal HDD to purchase. Could someone link me the a good Internal HDD? Can we have a partition? I use an 8tb external for backups but really only need well under 4tb. Can I partition it and use half for backups from pc and half for PS4? What about Networked Attached Storage?
Can I use same disk on another PS4 when I create my account there, so console can check I own content on it? Why do I have to leave 50gb free on my internal hard drive in order to play games off my external hard drive? What a waste of space. I upgraded to a 1tb hdd while back,I still have my gb,so how do I attach it to use as an external drive?
Does the system run slower, hang up or stutter when playing resource heavy games like Destiny and Horizon Zero Dawn? For fast paced games like BlackOps 4, MW and such, i would transfer all those games to system storage.
If I go to my friends house and I want to play a game that is on the usb will the game saves stay or do I have to start a new game?
