    • @johnspencer8268
      @johnspencer8268 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes the ps4 does have a hard drive and if you run out of storage you can delete some of the applications especially the ones you have played. If you played a new game and it says there's not enough space you go to settings and then select storage there might be some captured gallery or save data. It's easier

    Hey,
    Thanks for this man. I was getting anxiety about running low on space. I will say though that this problem has made me reevaluate which games I think are essential on my HD (FU Andromeda & AC3). I think that’s a good thing we should all do more often.
    It’s ridiculous how much space these games take up and with patches...bad times.

      Cause I heard the average life span of a External Hard Drive is 2 years.
      So, since u've posted this cmt a year ago......can you pls tell me.
      Is your Hard Drive still working and intact?
      And also, did you face any problems relating to Hard Drive in any sort of way?

    Very informative video. I just got the exact same hard drive as you and ran into some problems. Even when plugged in the PS4(original model) either a: not recognized it or b: gave an error and refusing to format it despite it fitting the qualifications. I really don’t know how to fix it, but after dis/reconnecting it a few times it began working. It finally allowed me to use it despite giving me the same error again during the reformat process. Very strange. Just putting it out there for anyone who ran into the same thing.

    I literally never had a clue that option was even there. I think why you were(and myself) getting such choppy connection and gameplay is because it was jumping back and fourth between 2.4/5Ghz and now it's locked on to one only. Thanks a bunch!

      First of all, you have to put a space between the coma and the next thing you wan’t to say. For example: The foxes found out that Jimmy is gay, because he secretly used makeup at night.
      Basically comas don’t allow you to write 3 separate blunt and short sentences, but it allows you to elaborate.
      For example:
      Jimmy is gay, because he put on makeup.
      In this case “Jimmy is gay” is a stand-alone sentence, this means that it can be used without further information and it will still be a valid sentence.
      “because he put on makeup” is the sidekick it’s just a short comment which adds important information.
      Im not trying to be an ass by doing this, I just wan’t to help him out. FYI Englisch isn’t my first language, and I’m probably quite shit at it, so correct any mistakes that I made in my little essay. ;-)
