I installed a Samsung 870 QVO 2TB SSD in my 1TB PS4 slim this week and I must say I'm impressed with the overall function, load times, and speed of the system after the upgrade.
@@unity454 I have the same SSD on my slim and it became slower. Like considerably slower. I took it off. I'm not sure what port it goes in but after the performance I got out of it I didn't bother to check again.

To properly make a back-up you must go to [Settings] > [System] > [Back Up and Restore]. The Application and Saved Data Management is for your saved games' progress only.
I have the BO3 Edition PS4 Console which already comes with a 1TB Hard Drive, but I want more speed and faster boot up times, so I'm going to consider getting one.
My son recently got himself a PS5. He handed down the old PS4.. I amazon'd a cheapie 1TB SSD for like 60 bucks, just used your guide this morning to upgrade, super easy. I think the ol' gal might have some life left in her. Thanks for the help.🍻
So glad I finally did this. The UI runs smoother, games load faster, and some games like Modern Warfare seemed to play better. For instance on HDD after several hours of gameplay (multiplayer) it would stutter. With the SSD there’s little to no stutter.
This pretty much answered all the pretty much answers i pretty much had for pretty much all the installation information I pretty much needed to pretty much complete my upgrade, pretty much.
Literally the hardest part, which isn't even hard is downloading the "Installation Package" from PlayStation, the people at Sony & PlayStation made this an incredibly easy process. Almost plug & play. SSD was 349.99 but on sale for 159.99, I got a bargain for a phenomenal SSD.
The PS4 does not properly utilize the read and write speeds of an SSD like a PC does. It'll probably only speed up loading time by literally a few seconds if even that. You'd be better off just getting a HDD with high RPM and having money left over for other games or PSN instead of buying an SSD for a ps4
Load times were cut noticeably only on mainly GTA V, where instead of taking about a minute and thirty seconds to load the game, the SSD made it load in only 29 seconds. But that's the only benefit I've seen from putting an SSD in my PS4.
I'm getting a SSD for my PS4 in a few days and I hope everything works the way it's supposed to, the main thing I'm worried about is losing all my save data and trophys. Luckily this video is very easy to understand so it should be algood. But I have seen people do this differently with a few extra steps so I'm gonna look into this more before I mess with anything.
@@_sgk.150 I changed my mind about getting one cause I want to get platinum on RDR2 first incase I lose everything I will still have the platinum on my account. Honestly I might just get a PS5 tho.
+Elusivity You still need the console for remoteplay. And it's only gonna stream you gameplay to your PC, you are playing on the console. I can't see what you are trying to prove by giving that link.
Something to keen in mind anyone who is doing this that is running into problems with installing the software, this happened to me. I downloaded the complete software on to a USB drive using my MacBook Pro and I tried several times to install the software to the PS4 but it kept reading “SU-41343-5” and it said “..must format it [USB DRIVE] to exFAT.” So I had to to reformat the USB drive on my MacBook by inserting the USB to the laptop > applications > utilities > disk utility. From there a pop up window comes up and it gives you the storages on your laptop or pc, so you click on the USB drive you are using to install the PS4 software, and you erase it and make sure to format it to “exFAT”. Once you do that, go ahead and re download the complete software (about 1gb) to the USB and repeat the video process and it’ll work. 100%. I just got my SSD and software running now.
Modern warfare destroyed my slims HDD twice. 2 weeks after Sony repaired it I decided to reinstall it again and it f up everything. Had to buy an HDD from Amazon wasn't gonna wait another 3 weeks for repair. You've been warned
Clipzilla dude i'm dealing with this right now my ps4 is basically fucking useless right now. after warzone my ps4 became drastically slow and in the last couple days i have no textures within the game. after deleting the game i had to initialize my ps4 but it's done nothing
iPadGameWalkthrough I had questions concerning this....... so what you are saying is that you wouldn't have to re-download the games, they'll just copy back over to the new hdd?
More, practically twice as much. I got a 240gb ssd as my boot drive in my gaming pc, it cost about $120, so a third of the price of your console. My hdd only cost around $50 though, so a bit more expensive than the crappy pieces of shit they use in these current gen shitboxes.

I stuck a 2tb in my ps4 and have had no regrets at all. Just be sure to back everything up..even If you slightly take out the hard drive and by some reason change your mind.. Your harddrive gets deleted so you'll end up with nothing so you'll end up having to install the update once again.
If u don’t have ps+ and u sign in to ur account on a different ps4 can u download the games u had on ur old ps4 to ur new one if ur logged in on the new one to ur psn acc
If i never turned on the ps4 system as it is brand new and i changed the hdd with the ssd and turned on the ps4, do i still need to install any file from the ps website?!
Im getting a PS4 pro. The SAMSUNG SSD 860 QVO only costs under 120€! Thats cheap! BUT bying the EVO is little more expensive but its much faster! Bying the QVO is an upgrade for sure!
1. Can you copy your games to an hhd to save time rather than redownload them? 2. Can the thumb drive that contains the ps4 firmware include other files?
Get an external hard drive, theyre normally like 30 dollars and can have massive space for games, you can put your games there, but a thumb drive with the ps4 operating system (in description of video) then do that too.
Okay, so the little ribbon thing is merely just a handle to pull the drive out? On a different video when I was learning how to pop the case open to do some cleaning that slot was empty.

Probably not a ssd issue. Try cancelling the download and turning off your ps4 and turn off your router and turn it all on again. I've encountered this problem before with the normal HHD.
That may be your ISP and/or bad connection to your router. Try setting your Console closer to your router and connect to 5GHz band for increased download speed.
My back up data restoration stopped at 40% after following everything you did, everything has gone well so far and i have 2tb ssd installed but im trying the data backup restoration again wish me luck 🤞
There are many types of quality brands of SSDs nowadays. Dont have to go samsung as load times stays the same practically on games. Western Digital looks good or Adata Ssds.
I'm willing to take off the hard disk out and put a 1TB SSD instead because in these last few months my PS4 slim has been fucking things up like I don't even know what... I had to initialise it twice and after that now almost every time I go play something it just tells me that I cannot use the following application and that the data is corrupted
I did all that cuz my ps4 wasnt working anymore . But It just refuse to boot on safe mode or anything . I press and hold the power button , second bip is about 10 , I release , and the ps4 just close . PLEASE HELP
Ive done this to a ps4 fat model cuh 1216b, the ssd is a kingston, now have a lot of issues and problem, like error in the load of the game map, the ps4 now run really slow and they have lag isssues,
So... this is assuming the person has enough money to buy one, since the consoles' main selling point was their price, which pc beats them in, and that they know anything about ssd's and all that.
Well.... Unless you plan on getting a i7 6700k for $310-330, which is slightly less than a console, the i5 6600k(one of the best cpu's for the money today) is about $200-220 on amazon, probably cheaper on newegg or wherever. You can easily get a nice pc for under $400, and since you guys always say you won't have to upgrade your console for a few years, You'll obviously have to pay for ps+ or whatever to play online, so let's say 3 years of ps+ for $120-130(depends on where you live) and that gives me a budget of.... $420-430!. You people need to stop spouting bullshit about stuff you don't know.Example a: pcpartpicker.com/list/dGV2xY Then, $30 for a coolermaster cm storm gaming keyboard and mouse bundle(very good quality and have led's 'n stuff, link here:www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Devastator-II-SGB-3030-KKMF1-US/dp/B01CDYAF28/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1475011790&sr=8-1&keywords=cm+storm ) and $30 for windows 10 off kinguin(link here: www.kinguin.net/catalogsearch/result/index/?q=windows+10) so, you were saying? Oh yeah, you can hook up the pc to your tv too, it's essentially an upgraded console with no additional costs(e.g. $60 a year for ps+ or xbox live which you NEED to play online). Oh, how I love correcting misinformation. BTW, this build in total, with shipping and all, should be cheaper than a ps4 or xbox one. The xbox one s is about $250 though, so that's pretty good for the price honestly, if only they weren't priced so high at launch :/
So, if you want to challenge any of my points or state a reason why consoles are better, I'll be happy to concede or refute them, just make sure you look up what you're talking about, because I'll know immediately if you're talking out your arse.
Bashir Wada That PC is garbage and you know it. I bet you it will fail within a few months and youll have to put up with PC gaming's endless issues. Also youre ignoring the entire world outside of the us. Same parts in Canada would be >$500. Probably even more expensive in Europe. Shit cpu, shit gpu, shit mobo, also dont forget the $100 OS, kinguin is a scum website who no decent person should deal with. Those peripherals are also garbage. Sure you can build a cheap pc, which will fail quickly and cause you trouble shoot the piece of garbage and eventually give up and waste more money on parts. Id love to see that piece of shit pc you built get anywhere near xbone or ps4 performance at the same settings. I guarantee that pc is an inconsistent mess that will struggle with any new AAA game.
What about if you having the game cd? Can we transfer the saved app data to the PS4 and then use the game discs as usual? Would be really helpful if responded with an answer.

So... this is assuming the person has enough money to buy one, since the consoles' main selling point was their price, which pc beats them in, and that they know anything about ssd's and all that.
Lol pc does not beat console in price. A single i5 or i7 is the same price as a console. Thats not even mentioning gpu, mobo, hdd, monitor, etc.
Well.... Unless you plan on getting a i7 6700k for $310-330, which is slightly less than a console, the i5 6600k(one of the best cpu's for the money today) is about $200-220 on amazon, probably cheaper on newegg or wherever. You can easily get a nice pc for under $400, and since you guys always say you won't have to upgrade your console for a few years, You'll obviously have to pay for ps+ or whatever to play online, so let's say 3 years of ps+ for $120-130(depends on where you live) and that gives me a budget of.... $420-430!. You people need to stop spouting bullshit about stuff you don't know.Example a:
pcpartpicker.com/list/dGV2xY
Then, $30 for a coolermaster cm storm gaming keyboard and mouse bundle(very good quality and have led's 'n stuff, link here:www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Devastator-II-SGB-3030-KKMF1-US/dp/B01CDYAF28/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1475011790&sr=8-1&keywords=cm+storm ) and $30 for windows 10 off kinguin(link here: www.kinguin.net/catalogsearch/result/index/?q=windows+10) so, you were saying? Oh yeah, you can hook up the pc to your tv too, it's essentially an upgraded console with no additional costs(e.g. $60 a year for ps+ or xbox live which you NEED to play online). Oh, how I love correcting misinformation. BTW, this build in total, with shipping and all, should be cheaper than a ps4 or xbox one. The xbox one s is about $250 though, so that's pretty good for the price honestly, if only they weren't priced so high at launch :/
So, if you want to challenge any of my points or state a reason why consoles are better, I'll be happy to concede or refute them, just make sure you look up what you're talking about, because I'll know immediately if you're talking out your arse.
Bashir Wada That PC is garbage and you know it. I bet you it will fail within a few months and youll have to put up with PC gaming's endless issues.
Also youre ignoring the entire world outside of the us. Same parts in Canada would be >$500. Probably even more expensive in Europe.
Shit cpu, shit gpu, shit mobo, also dont forget the $100 OS, kinguin is a scum website who no decent person should deal with. Those peripherals are also garbage. Sure you can build a cheap pc, which will fail quickly and cause you trouble shoot the piece of garbage and eventually give up and waste more money on parts.
Id love to see that piece of shit pc you built get anywhere near xbone or ps4 performance at the same settings. I guarantee that pc is an inconsistent mess that will struggle with any new AAA game.
Bashir Wada Haha, hook up a pc to a tv. What a joke. Shitty control support for most games, and playing with a kb+m on a couch is retarded.
Nice vid, would it work if I just clone the HDD to the SSD? thx.
If you have multiple accounts on the ps4 will u have to go on each and save the accounts data?
What about if you having the game cd? Can we transfer the saved app data to the PS4 and then use the game discs as usual?
Would be really helpful if responded with an answer.
Did you find an answer?
Does the ps4 slim use the same type of hd as the regular ps4? I think it was different for the ps3 slim/regular console.
Can I install the firmware and my saved game data on the same USB thumbstick ??
Can You Use The Same Exact USB For The Back Up Saved Data And The Installation? Or Do You Need 2?
You need two
Could I use a different brand of solid state drive for the ps4 slim
Yes
when i created an ps4 and. update folder and place the ps4update.pup onto that update folder. i removed the usb drive from my laptop. re insert the usb drive. i checked the update folder. And the ps4update.pup is gone wtf bro.
Could you use carbon copy cloner and just clone your old HD to the SSD? And it's then just plug and play.
What is the exact size of your Phillips head screw driver?
Can you replace the hard drive with a Samsung 860 Evo with a PS4 slim instead of the 850 evo?
yes
Is it really better to get a ssd or should we get a mechanical drive? I mean, does it give any trouble to ps4 or the system plugging in a ssd as it was not a ss before?
Okay, change in question as I saw ssd price, what kind of hdd should I buy? 😂
Rana Keküllüoğlu lol
Just bought it on Amazon for $90!
Noe I'm ready for next week
†Leonic 458 is the firmware the same still or updated to now?
Mine sounds like a fan when it starts up is that normal for hard drives. Plz respond thnx 😀
hi mw technology i need your help copying update file is so slow and there's no other app copying at once please help
If I already have data on the hard drive, can I just clone it to the solid-state drive or that doesn’t work?
No
Can you use the same USB to make my backup and also put the firmware on?
Can you use an external hard drive that is usb connected with the external hard drive
Two questions. Do you lose waranty when you change the hdd?
And why not backing up the whole system on a hdd?
Can you use any 1 terabyte 2.5 ssd with SATA connection?
So I’ve done everything correctly so far with putting the update on the usb but when I put it in my ps4 it says update not found…
I was in the safe mode screen after installing the 7.5.1 update to my usb. Now it says that there's no usb device connected even though it's in one of the ports at the moment. How do I fix this
Did you ever figure it out?
