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!

Seriously took me less then 5 minutes. Just make sure you have the right screwdriver. Make sure the hard drive dimensions are the right size. Not the amount of storage space, the actual dimensions of it. Don't get one and then find out it's just a smidge too big for your console. Most 2 TB drives should be fine though. Make sure you have a USB stick with the PS4 operating system on it. MAKE SURE IT IS THE CORRECT ONE. There is a special download of the operating system specifically for when the PS4 hard drive has just been replaced. That's the one you need. Yes you will need to reinstall AND update all your games again before you can play them. It's a pain but the extra hard drive space is worth it.
