What if the game was originally installed onto the external hard drive? Does that mean the saved data is on there already and I can just connect to my PS5 and play where I left off?
I’m glad I seen this video. I wasn’t sure if my saved game data saved to Plus& PSN subscription. But I did always have auto upload to my Plus/PSN subscription acct. Thanks for Confirmation
hey there...is there a way to copy the ps4 game on to the hard drive without removing it from the console..Like if a friend wanted to copy it for me who cant download it so we could both play?
@@fafagbedemah8960 not sure that can be done. Because Games that you bought on your system belong to your account. So you could copy it to the external hard drive but unless it’s a game that is on PS Plus or PSN which you’d both have to have. That would be the only way you could play co-op together. What game is it ur trying to play together. Maybe I could give better insight. Only game that you can do that with is a game called No way out! Only 1 person needs to own the copy of the game to play. But you have to have a co- op player to play it with you in order to play. If that’s the game you’re talking about then yes.
@@fafagbedemah8960 you can copy it to his console and you can play your games on your account. On his console but you can’t play the game in 2 different places at one time without both owning the game. Threw own PS accounts. Unless you have a Modded system. But I’ve never seen a modded PS4. Only consoles that I’ve seen modded was PS3-& X-Box 360 to pull off those kinds of cross play with the same game.
Probably heard this enough from the others, but likely the most clear and concise tutorial I've ever encountered. Covered everything in a few minutes. Keep up the awesome tutorials!
@@DoubtMeTech I have a question. Can i now take the games transferred to my HDD and take them to a different console, log into my PSN account on that PS4 and install them on the internal storage of the new PS4?
Okay. I was confused for a minute. I thought that I could still transfer the saved data to the external hard drive, except I didn't realize you need a separate USB stick to do that. But thank you for your effort to help.
Dude thank you so much, I looked at so much stuff but it never went step by step like this and now I can finally just let my system process what it needs to process to fit more stuff in (It kept saying I didn’t have enough storage with a 5 terabyte drive attached to it)
Oh ok, the step to copy save game data to USB stick is only if one is gonna play those games on another PS5. Gotcha. This was really the best tutorial I've seen. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this video!! The way you explained finally connects the dot for me about why I wasn’t seeing my ps4 saved data on the ps5. Thank you!!
YOU ARE MY HERO! THIS HAD BEEN THE MOST HELPFUL AND CLEAR VIDEO ON HOW TO TRANSFER EVERYTHING ON THE PS4 TO AN EXTERNAL SEAGATE HD TO A PS5 THAN ANY OTHER VIDEO ON UA-cam! THANK GOD! I HAVE FOUND YOUR CHANNEL! IT'S SO CLEAR, PRECISE, EASY TO FOLLOW THAN THE OTHER BOZO VIDEO. I CAN ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND YOUR DIRECTION AND FOLLOW THEM IN A CLEAR EFFECTIVE WAY. NOT TOO FAST, NOT TOO SLOW, NOT TOO CONFUSING AND GOT IT TO WORK! SUBSCRIBE!
Awesome tutorial, thank you so much! I spent half an hour trying to help my 10 year old with this to no success but after watching only a few minutes of your video, had the problem solved.
Phenomenal video work just bought a new PS5 an just searching for a method of how to do things. By the Grace of God I was recommended your an I have to say of all the videos I have seen yours was legit well detailed and explanations was clearly spoken an able to understand.
I would love to say one thing I’ve been reviewing and watching some of the videos on how people react or I should say speak to people about the situation not overextending the information keeping a basic I will give you a double thumbs up you were right to the point you did not talk a joke or me horror stories I appreciate that I wish more people would do videos like yours and probably things will be a lot better on UA-cam thanks a lot for doing a great job
@@DoubtMeTechwhen you copy your save data to your hard drive will it still be on your PS4’s system storage or will you manually have to delete it? Will that affect anything
So what is the point of the Application if the saved data doesn't transfer as well? how do you then download your save data now that you have your saved data on USB? Do you need both the extended storage with the application with the USB with the saved data to play elsewhere? Is it possible to make a video?
Much love and respect bro, very straight forward instructions which helped me to transfer games and saved data from my old console to a new one..🙏🏽🙏🏽❤❤
This was a nice, quick and easy solution to back-up some of my save data for use on a PS5, which I'll be getting soon! Good thing I've had an old flash drive sitting around! Thanks a lot!
This video was really helpful, thanks. Just ordered myself a PS5 after saving my money for a while and wanted to move some games onto my Game Drive ready for my new console. Thanks 👍
Exactly what I was after. Now I can back up both types data on 2 different hdrives. Transfer a certain game over then download all data safely. Thought I had to back up and restore. But if I did that I would've lost the transferred game. Thank u so much
I just bought an external hard drive but now since I started watching this it sucks you can't save the game data on there. But channel still has my support/props
I have a PS4 which has broken down un-repairable, but I had all the game on external drive. Once I get new PS4 can I use that external drive on it with same data.
I know this was a year ago.. but please reply if possible.. does moving system storage to the external hard drive make the PS4 console run faster? Thanks in advance!
Thanks for this but i wish i watched this sooner! I bounce around from 2 homes in 2 countries and have a PS4 and PS5. I was quite confused when i successfully transferred the games but not the files based on info from other tutorials. I can't believe Playstation needs us to tell the cloud or a separate drive to transfer the Saved Files as well as Game Data - Duh! But thanks for this friend!
You can't have the USB formated to the PS, if you do that you can't put saved data onto it as I've discovered. An unformed USB works regarding saved data.
Hey Bro I'm confused I want to purchase 4tb external hdd for storing games can i play them directly from hdd or only to store for later to put it in system
