Man I don't think I'll ever use up all my space
You can't install games on it can you? Unless you get digital version right?
Every disc game also stores a cache on the drive. The cache is temporary as it will delete itself when games are no longer being played.Quote:

Yeah I started with a TB HDD and am down to 140GB. Don't really want to go through deleting and reinstalling constantly so I'm going to go through with this upgrade.
You download and play alot more games than I do and probably most though lol
I don't see myself going over what it came with honestly as I only play 3 games tops at any 1 time every year.
Could see myself wanting to go with a Solid State drive but price needs to drop more before that happens.
Good grief. Lol. Our gaming habits are so different nowQuote:

Yeah for whatever reason I don't think Sony is going to add external support. Seems silly but it is what it is. I just checked this a.m. and I'm already 50% full on my 1 TB HDD. How much would it be to upgrade to the 6 TB HDD setup that guy has in the video?Quote:

Here is what I bought:Quote:

The 6TB HDD is more than double the price.
Thanks man I'll keep my eye out for now for a "deal" because I feel confident I'm going to need to do something by this time next year.Quote:

If that is what you are talking about

Also you will need this extension cable because it has to be a meter to be able to feed through under the cover and out the vent in the back.
Now I just need to find the right enclosure.
Needed an eSata port out of the enclosure so I found one for that:

And a longer sata extension cable:

And going to return the ones that didn't work.
Actually, the DS3 used a mini USB. DS4 uses a micro USB.Quote:

That said, micro USB phone chargers will work on DS4s.
I #TrustTheScript
DS3 is actually "mini B" USB, whereas DS4 is microUSB, which is what is used by many cell phones.Quote:
