Asked 6 years ago by Boomer2023.
- Answer Yes it would work on both systems..... it’s a removable hard drive that can be used with most standard PS4 systems.

Asked 6 years ago by SSthunder.

QuestionIf you disconnect it and there is data in the hard drive do you lose the data completely
Asked 6 years ago by Enero8422.
- Answer No you do not lose the data, because it is stored on the Ext. HDD(external hard disc drive) like the device is designed for. But always be sure to shut down the system before removing/unplugging the Ext. HDD to minimize possible file corruption.
