“How do I format it to my PS4?”

1-3 of 3 Answers

• Once you plug in the drive to your PS4, it should prompt you in your notifications that a storage device is connected and ask if you’d like to format the drive for use.

• The first thing you need to do is format your hard drive. So, connect your hard drive to your PS4 using a USB cable. If you have problems with the PS4 recognizing the hard drive like I was, make sure you’re using a USB 3.0 cable and not the now-ancient cable that likely came with your DualShock. Once it’s connected, you just need to hop into your settings: 1. Head to Settings > Devices > USB Storage Devices and select your external hard drive. 2. Select Format as Extended Storage and tap X. 3. Select Next and tap X. 4. Select Format and tap X. 5. Select Yes and tap X. 6. Select Okay and tap X.
