PS4 Internal Hard Drive Upgrade

Hi all, So recently I've noticed that I have nearly used all the 500gb of space in the standard PS4 hard drive. I want to upgrade it (possibly to a 2tb HDD) and I was wondering how that would affect everything currently on my ps4. How would I go about after upgrading the HDD. I am aware that everything would be deleted, so I would need to re-install all of my games, and download my saved data from the cloud (I am not sure how any of this works, though). However, I am very new to this, and any clarification/help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much! Edit: Finished installing the HDD in my PS4...thank you so much to everyone that helped me. It's working like a charm. I'm going to keep this thread open because it has a lot of useful information for anyone in the same boat as me. Thanks again!

  • With your saves, it's probably easier to save them all to a USB stick because chances are you have more than 1GB of saves (which is the max cloud storage you can have FTL). Grab a Seagate Backup Plus Slim 2TB external drive. Pop it open and take the hard drive out of it's case (be careful not to break the case or the foil) and put it into your PS4. Download the PS4 OS to your USB as well from the playstation website and install on your console as per instructions. Load up all your saves. Download all you games and patches and you're good to go.
