This also applies to the PS3 in case anyone still uses that console but it's important to know that neither the PS3 or PS4 will take full advantage of an SSD upgrade since they use SATA II, only the PS4 Pro model uses SATA III interface which is strange but it's the only one that can take full advantage of an SSD upgrade.

I don't really find it that strange. SATA 3 was launched in mid 2009. When the PS4 was launched, SATA3 had only been out for 4 years and was mostly only found in high performance computers. By the time the PS4 Pro came out at the end of 2016, SATA3 was the dominant standard for hard drive interface.

While this information is accurate in it's "how to" aspect, you shouldn't need to rebuild the database every month. In fact, every time you rebuild the database, there is a chance it won't succeed and will be left with no option but to format and start over (if it encounters an unfixable error). Only rebuild the database if there is an actual issue, it's not good advice to use this as preventative maintenance every month. If you are constantly rebuilding the db over an issue, that probably means your drive is on the way out and you should consider replacing it with either another HDD or an SSD.

Doing these 2 steps, along with at least a quick dusting once a month should keep your PS4/PS5 running at or at least near its best potential.

Moving your games to an external USB SSD will work wonders too, I suggest that over replacing the internal one if you plan to upgrade to PS5 later. This will save you a LOT of time as you can connect the same external drive to the PS5 and play all the games off it without having to redownload or transfer the game files from the old console.

Cheers for the reminder to do this. Even though most firmware updates do a DB rebuild, clearing the cache always helps speed up the UI. Sadly, it doesn’t stop poorly optimised games from making the PS4/PS4 Pro work harder/run hotter & noisier though.

I just changed the HDD with an samsung 1tb ssd and its really faster, the performance and just graphics in general are also alot better. Lags are also reduced and almost non existent. If you do buy one, just be careful that you buy an SATA 3 SLIM ssd. You can also use laptop ssd‘s.

I had a PS Vita that suddenly stopped working and wouldn't turn on. I plugged in the charger for an hour and held the power button for around 17 seconds until it booted in safe mode. From there I chose the rebuild hardware option, fixed it. Also if you have lag or NAT type 2 on your PS4 online try adjusting the MTU settings from 1500 down to 1450 or 1400, this will transfer a smaller amount of data more often. Resulting in better performance.

It's because there old tech sata ssd is quite slow compared to nvme m.2 like a tenth of the speed compared to modern ssd. The best thing for ps4 is m.2 external housing and choose your nvme ssd size job done very fast

Hey guys! Stupid question, so does the SSD make the loading times of the games faster? Or just increase performance of the system?
@AdmiralGunga

Theoretically it should do both although the load times won’t see a noticeable difference unless you have a game fully installed on the SSD instead of using a disc. Read times are limited by hardware.

Load the game for which you want to clear the cache and while the game is loading, press and hold the L1 + R1 buttons. By doing so, the game will clear its cache.

A hybrid SSHD is just as good and cheaper then ssd. While not as fast, you won’t see that much of difference. PS4/Pro doesn’t even take advantage of ssd, I wish they did.
