    Great video guys, you missed out the section where you spend 30 minutes looking for a screwdriver, the 10 seconds in which you accuse your wife of misplacing it and the week you have been sleeping on the couch since you found it in the shed, the first place she told you to look when you embarked on this project. The load times are worth it though.

    If you’re doing this in 2020 you can backup n restore all you saved data to ps plus if you’re a member. and you can re-download you’re games from your Library once you sing in. Saved me 8 hours and $80 on an external hard drive

      Wait, maybe I’m asking a dumb question but, but since you have a SSD now and don’t need to buy the external drive how do you acquire the latest update part?

    • @bryanbahri2758
      @bryanbahri2758 4 роки тому +22

      Live To learn I don’t know what you mean by update part. If you’re asking how to keep your ps4 up to date, you just simply do what you did before ssd. Just keep it on auto update. And your ps4 will automatically downloads the latest software when available.

      Correct. You get almost no gains over a 7200 RPM HDD or a SSHD. You're spending way more per GB to get the same gains.

    I don't think you would really see much performance gain since the PS4 only uses SATA2, Plus a 2TB SSD would cost you the price of an additional PS4 pro.

      Horse Thief You never learn if you never try. When you get into it you will realize how much more you can do with a computer. I don't think you can run 4 squad voice comm over Teamspeak while having squadleaders on two voice channels at a time on a ps4.
      Also the fact that consoles are only for gaming. What if I want to talk more in-depth about games in reddit for example or shitpost shitty memes, listen to music, listen to podcasts, watch a livestream while relaxing and playing a casual round of civ? You can't!
      Maybe you have some other hobbies like making videos, using photoshop, 3D modeling, coding?
      I mean to my understanding consoles have apps like spotify and stuff but I could never imagine using them with a controller
      With consoles I just feel like im restricted you can't really customize your console all that much.
      And what I hate the most is the UI which looks like the one I have on my phone with big boxes and icons.
