This process is shockingly easy. It was very simple to swap out the hard disk on a PlayStation 3 but there were a couple of awkward stumbling blocks. The PlayStation 4 has none of that, this process is as easy as it could possibly be. That’s good because, thanks to the totally expected collapse of the PSN under heavy load, this is the only thing my PS4 has done so far.

Wow, so easy and user friendly. I don’t think even the people that naturally snap things can go wrong here!
Top video guide, also the removal of the finger prod console rock & roll tip should definately be added to the official PS4 FAQ’s :P

Very informative, cheers for that! Can’t wait to get my PS4 now – about 2 weeks to wait…
The last tip was very amusing. :)

I love the fix for the wobble. Strange choice to have rubber stands where they are, but if you don’t want it to wobble just dont do it!

maybe i’m showing my age a bit here, but i find it pretty amazing that you can get a terabyte of storage on something less than a centimetre deep.
i remember when something with a few hundred megabtyes was several times the size of that thing, i wouldn’t have know what a terabyte was back then.
um, anyway, good to see it’s so easy, i was lucky when i upgraded my PS3, i didn’t have the problem with the stuck screws, but this looks even easier.
considering the size of game on next gen machines, i think a HDD upgrade is going to be more and more essential.
which makes me scratch my head over the fact ms seem to have made it impossible to upgrade the hard drive on the X1, without invalidating the warranty at least.

Hehe, i love the anti-wobble tip! You must have gone to the same school of common sense as Fergal Gara :)

Easy peasy! I think I`ll stick with the 500 gigger for now. I’m interested to see how people get on with bigger hybrid drives though.
