Whats Included

Data Bank Hard Drive Upgrade Dock for Sony PlayStation 4

Q: How much memory does it hold?

A: You have to purchase a hard drive, recommended is 2tb max.I installed a 4TB and works great

Q: I already upgraded the internal HDD to 2tb; will I be able to add another with this unit?

A: No. Its replaces it with some plastic piece that goes where the hard drive currently resides. If you want to add more, get a 4TB hard drive. I have one and use a 4 TB . no issues and can use all the features

Q: Can you use multiple Nyko hardrives on 1 ps4

A: No you can't add more than one bay, but you don't need to just add a bigger hard drive with this. This is just a bay you also need to buy a hard drive for it. This lest you install a 3.5 desktop H.D.

Q: How easy is it to install and set up?

A: This only works for older models of the PS4. I bought it when I bought a PS4 recently (2014-Feb) and found that this didn't work with my PS4. I returned it and bought a standard notebook HD to upgrade my PS4 to 2GB storage and that worked just fine.

Just what you need if your a gamer!
I had read about this product months ago in a press release and kind-of forgot about it until one day I'm browsing a Best Buy and lo and behold there it is in the PS4 section. Needless to say I purchased it along with a 4 Terabyte hard drive and I couldn't be happier. Its easy to install and works flawlessly. The only downside is the long long process of backing up your games data from the PS4's original drive to a backup drive in order to be copied back to this device once its installed. I now have all my PS4 games available to play. There is a notation on the products box and instruction sheet that some features of the PS4 will not be available. As of the current 3.00 firmware every feature and function is fully working. Do yourself a favor and pickup this product, its inexpensive and tremendously increases the usability of your PlayStation 4.

Better alternatives than this
After reading several reviews online as well as elsewhere, I decided to upgrade my HD (to a 3TB HD) on my PS4 using this. A few commented that there were no problems going beyond the 2TB limit recommended on the product. While the expanded storage was a bonus, the loss of using rest mode was discouraging as I did not want to leave my unit on all the time. The few times it did go to rest mode, it would shut down. I ended up getting rid of this and just buying a 2TB HD made for laptops. Fits perfectly inside the PS4 and works perfectly. So if you are wanting to keep all the features of your PS4 but still get more storage, then just buy a 2 TB HD. If rest mode is NOT important to you and you jsut want make storage, then this may be the product for you. Good luck.

For the Gamers
This is what every PS4 gamer been looking for! Since the release of the PS4 it kind of sucked that it only had 500gb, today you can buy this along with a desktop hard drive & you're good to go. I bought a Western Digital 3tb, the only hiccup is that you won't be able to put the PS4 into Rest Mode if you go with more than 2tb, which isn't a big deal & if you go this route go check out some videos on YouTube that shows you what is needed, it's real easy
