I own a ps4-ps5 and use a hard drive. I leave my gaming devices on rest mode and on rare occasions I have a power issue that causes my hard drive to mess up. So my question is does this devices handle sudden shut offs or power issues? null

Get a small battery backup. I have one for my Xbox series x to ensure there are no power spikes and sudden shutoffs
