Change of HDD to SSD 512GB for PS4
Upgrading your PlayStation 4’s internal hard disk drive (HDD) to a solid-state drive (SSD) offers several notable benefits, making it a popular choice for improving your console’s performance:
Why Exchange HDD for SSD in PS4?
- Faster Load Times:
- SSDs dramatically reduce game loading screens and system boot times. Compared to the PS4’s original 5400 RPM HDD (with speeds around 100MB/s), many SATA-based SSDs offer read/write speeds above 500MB/s, cutting load times by up to 50% or more in many games. For example, games like Witcher 3 or Day’s Gone load significantly faster on SSDs.
- Smoother Gameplay and UI:
- SSDs help reduce texture pop-in and stuttering during gameplay by speeding up data streaming from storage. The PS4’s menus and navigation also become more responsive and fluid.
- Improved Reliability and Durability:
- SSDs have no moving parts, unlike HDDs with spinning platters and read/write heads. This makes SSDs less prone to physical damage from knocks or drops and generally more reliable over time.
- Quieter Operation:
- Without mechanical parts, SSDs operate silently, eliminating the occasional clicking and spinning noises typical of HDDs.
- Future-Proofing and Versatility:
- An SSD used in your PS4 can be repurposed later for use in a PC or as external storage for other devices, making it a good long-term investment.
