I’ve done this before but there is one major problem with this, it deletes updates for currently installed games and if you are like me and have the auto update feature turned on, then after you do this over time, your system will be bombarded with updates for various games you have installed
yip - that is what I said. some people have no impact while for others you have to re-download stuff. The good news is that when its done, your data will be nice a neat on your drive so you should feel the difference.
Saw your other video on this subject as well as others that suggested how to do the same thing. i have 4, PS4's. (grand kids). The thing was it worked, but took forever installing updates to a lot of the games.
yeah - its not consistent. I have not had to re-install updates but some do. Maybe it depends on the type of games? There isn't a straight forward answer from Sony either...
When the games have corrupted data the updates get turfed and the new updates are reapplied. I have noticed this. My ps4 was updating games for 4 days after this rebuild. It definitely helps and your step by step is the best user video I have seen. Well done!

Question. I have an ssd I got specifically for ps4 but have a lot of stuff in my capture gallery that I want to keep there on my current 2tb hdd. It's more than your average flash drive holds altho I'm trimming vids to cut them down to exact moments I want to keep without the extra crap I don't need (loading screens, scenes I don't want etc). I thought originally I could just use my current 2tb that's in it now as back up drive for ps4 & keep everything on my hdd but I read that having playstation firmware on your main hdd & your backup causes issues which makes sense. Any suggestions on how I can successfully do what I wanted without too many headaches or doing stuff wrong? I have over 250gb of stuff in my capture gallery.
B13Helghast no. That’s a myth. It’s actually the opposite. HDDs do that. SSDs don’t. SSD’s last probably 10 times longer than HDDs. Problem is price points. SSDs cost 10 times more than HDDs.
SSDs make a HUGE difference on PCs but I did not find them making a big difference on PS4..... wonder why that is.. Anyway for PS5 they're coming up with a new SSD anyway, so
Taha Iftekhar a machine is only as fast as it’s slowest part. Just because you add an SSD to a PS4 won’t automatically make it faster. Depends on how you are utilizing it and the capabilities of the PS4 to begin with. That’s what’s probably why you don’t notice a difference.
I love how the word HACK gets overused for EVERYTHING. Its also as bad as the word AWESOME. The definition of the word hack is: To gain unauthorized access to data in a system or computer.

Use the ps4 cord that came with your ps4 controller. I have a ps4 pro and had no issues rebuilding the data base. If you have a external drive make sure you disconnect it first. Go through settings and storeage options to do this.

Thanks and yes this helps greatly. I have an issue with my PS4 Gold Headset. Its setup for my PS4 Pro my wireless dongle communicates with the PS4 headset. It wont register under bluetooth on PS4. Settings are greyed out for the headset and the correct settings are set. When I turn on my headset it wont register on my PS4. It should show up with the icons. It should cut out the sound automatically and input the sound through the headset. It does not. The Headset Companion app shows my headset and I have reset to default settings. I believe the dongle is not registering to the ps4 pro. No us 3.0 cables. I do have a psvr hooked up. Any suggestions.
hmmmm not sure I'm afraid...couple of options to try: 1. does it work with a 3.5mm cable? (just to test if the bluetooth) 2. Do you have another headset to try? (just to test if its a headset issue or a hardware issue on the PS4Pro)

How exactly does rebuild the ps4 data base, increase the ps4 controller response time!!?.
It doesn't!!
Who said it had anything to do with the controller? 🙄
You're not boosting the performance you're just bringing it back to where it was when you first bought it.
which is essentially means that all your files are nicely optimized to be read faster resulting in better performance.
Also I have a 4tb outside add-on do I need to detach that or keep it plugged in? And do I defrag that or will it go unrecognized?

S D uh I don’t throw my controllers 😂
Buy a new controller or go through the pain of attempting to put a new stick in.
@@ahedgehogger15 new ps4 controllers sometimes come with stick drift right out of the box because their crap.
@Not Pixer take it apart and spray the tiniest amount possible of wd40 into the sticks (barely spray anything) let it dry for an hour and put it back together will work better than new.
Search RUclips, John glasscock, "your playstation controller might have this problem". There's a couple of things you can do, it works well.
Is there any effect if you have an external hard drive?
This is a nice tip for any device
remember.. @ game launch... press square □ plus X still makes it HDR MODE.. note.. you may hear you fans kick in lol to prove it
What is you are using external harddrive?
Thanks and yes this helps greatly. I have an issue with my PS4 Gold Headset. Its setup for my PS4 Pro my wireless dongle communicates with the PS4 headset. It wont register under bluetooth on PS4. Settings are greyed out for the headset and the correct settings are set. When I turn on my headset it wont register on my PS4. It should show up with the icons. It should cut out the sound automatically and input the sound through the headset. It does not. The Headset Companion app shows my headset and I have reset to default settings. I believe the dongle is not registering to the ps4 pro. No us 3.0 cables. I do have a psvr hooked up. Any suggestions.
hmmmm not sure I'm afraid...couple of options to try: 1. does it work with a 3.5mm cable? (just to test if the bluetooth) 2. Do you have another headset to try? (just to test if its a headset issue or a hardware issue on the PS4Pro)
Hook your headset to the usb with a cord and turn it on.then unplug it and your pro will recognize it then u can use it like you used to bro

What if you use an external hard drive
Then you never need to do this as there's no point to it at all and it's hard on your PS4
Well my ps4 is definitely not running at its best. It lags even when I'm not playing games just switching from one app to the other.
My guy has two netflix applications lel
I have a question will it require for you to sign into your ps4?
More than likely yes.
