It is really easy to upgrade the HDD in your PS4. I did shortly after I got
one. I used a Seagate SSHD 1 TB. It was about 90$. Not sure if it helped a ton with speed
because I swapped it right after I bought the system. Its crazy to think 500gb is not much storage at all any more.

I bought a 2tb hdd took me about 1hr the first try, second time was easy around 15min, it took longer to backup the HDD and restore it. (3hrs)

It was really easy to put the new hard drive in, i just followed a youtube video. I paid £70 for a 2tb drive.

Yeah that was clearly a problem when they announced the system. With 40gb games being normal now I find myself deleting shit I really don't want to all the time. I thought about upgrading the hdd, but I was lazy and it seems that's going to pay off if this Neo comes out soon

You would think that the Ps4 could do something to update their fienware so you could plug in an external HD like how you can in the XB1

I like being able to change the internal drive because it looks nicer in my setup. I would like the option to use an external though. Not even close to needing one but would like the option.
