4 TB USB 3.0 desktop drive for PS4

This 4 TB external hard drive spins at 7200 RPM with a 64 MB cache and connects over USB 3.0. It arrives pre-formatted with the PlayStation 4 file system so the console recognises it immediately. The enclosure uses a fan-less design for silent operation. No case opening is required to add the storage.

Suits PS4 Original, Slim

Players who need more room for games, captures and media on any PS4 model can plug this in and start using it straight away. It is not for anyone using a PlayStation 5, an Xbox console or a PC that requires a different file system out of the box. Builders wanting an internal 3.5-inch drive or a faster SSD should look elsewhere.

Plug into a PS4 USB port

Installation is a single cable connection with no driver or software steps. The pre-applied PS4 formatting removes the usual partition errors that appear with generic drives. The only common issue is forgetting to set the drive as the default install location in the console settings, which leaves new downloads on the internal drive.

Questions about this item

Does the drive need a separate power adapter or does it draw power from the PS4 USB port?

The desktop external hard drive requires its own power adapter; it does not run on bus power from the PS4 USB 3.0 port.

Will the pre-formatted PS4 file system still work if I keep my original internal drive installed?

Yes, the 4000 GB drive adds storage alongside the internal drive without formatting or removing it.

How can I confirm the 7200 RPM drive is recognised and ready for game installs?

On the PS4 go to Settings > Storage; the external drive will appear as Extended Storage with the full capacity shown.
