Boîtier d’extension pour disque dur PS4. Très simple à mettre en œuvre, robuste, il suffit de suivre la notice fournie et tout roulera comme sur des roulettes! Et vous pourrez bénéficier d’une capacité de mémoire nettement supérieure, tout en éliminant les problèmes de lags et ralentissement de la console.Il vous faudra un disque dur interne en plus, une clé usb (9 GO) formatée en FAT 32 pour y installer la version de la console (à télécharger sur le site SONY et à mettre directement sur la clé USB, sinon, la console ne reconnaîtra pas le firmware dans votre clé usb).Mais ça vaut vraiment le coup 😉👍

Da ich selbst als Gelegenheitsspieler immer wieder auf das Problem gestossen bin, dass meine aktuelle Festplattenkapazität nicht ausreicht (Original PS4 vom Erscheinungstag mit 500 GB) und ich noch eine 2 TB-Festplatte ungenutzt im Bestand hatte, dachte ich mir, ich probiere diese Erweiterungsmöglichkeit einmal aus.Die Installation ist wirklich einfach, selbst wenn man die beiliegenden (im Posterformat) Informationsblätter nur kurz überfliegt:Es ist lediglich eine Schraube mit dem im Set enthaltenen Schraubenschlüssel zu lösen und später wieder festzuschrauben.Der Adapter nimmt sowohl die alte 2,5"-Zoll-Platte, wie auch die neue 3,5"-Zoll-Platte auf. Eine Wechselmöglichkeit zwischen den Platten besteht über einen vorhandenen Knopf.Nach dem Einbau muss zunächst die aktuelle PS4-Firmware heruntergeladen werden (Achtung: Unbedingt die "größere" Download-Variante mit ca. 800 MB für die Neuinstallation wählen).Diese wird auf einen, im FAT32 formatierten, USB-Stick aufgespielt und zum Start der PS4 im USB-Slot platziert.Bevor die PS4 im Safety-Modus eingeschaltet wird, muss die zu verwendende Festplatte mittels vorhandenem Auswahl-Schalter gewählt werden (3,5")!Nun startet die PS4 und es kann das "nackte" Betriebssystem installiert werden.Langwierig war bei mir das Sichern der Altdaten auf einen externen Speicher, was jedoch nicht der hier zu bewertenden Hardware angelastet werden kann. Also am Besten bereits nach der Bestellung des Adapters mit der Sicherung beginnen :-)Diese Sicherung zurückspielen, et Voila man hat seine alte PS4 mit einem wesentlich größeren Festplattenspeicher...Fazit: Für alle die kostengünstig ihren Festplattenspeicher erweitern wollen eine ideale Lösung!

WD 内蔵HDD Green 2TB 3.5inch SATA3.0とセットで購入しました。他の方のレビューやNYKO(英文)HPでのレビューで2TB以上はサポートされていないようなので2TBHDDを取り付けました。(小心者です(^.^))結論から行くと、動作は問題なし。スタンバイモードも使用可能で単純に内蔵HDDが3.5インチになって使用可能領域は約1.8TBくらいあります。取付も簡単でしたが、ここで注意!!自分はCUH-1200AB01のPS4なのですが、内蔵HDDを固定しているビスの位置がそれ以前の型式のPS4と変わっています。どの型からなのかはわかりません。付属の取説の写真や、Webサイトで交換した人の写真を見てもビスはHDDの横についているのですが、自分のPS4はHDDの正面についていました。(PS4から見て真正面)DATA BANKの2.5インチ側ユニットにはビス止め用の穴が耳のようについていますがこれがPS4のフレームに引っ掛って入りません。ビス穴(耳)をカットしました。このあたり注意が必要です。それ以外の機能的なものは十分満足です。

UPDATE : Sony has released update 3.15 on January 13th, 2016. This update allows larger hard drives to be used natively in rest mode with the PS4. I have a 6tb drive, and it works perfectly now. No more messing with shutting it down or turning it on. Everything now works as it should.I purchased this enclosure in order to upgrade my ps4 to a 6TB hard drive.The enclosure comes in some pretty nice packaging, and is easy to get out.The instructions are pretty clear and precise, and installation was a breeze.Once installed, I loaded up my ps4 with new firmware, and all worked well.At first I kept my playstation in rest mode, and had issues turning it back on, but after searching on the internet I found a solution that will allow you to use rest mode without the ps4 going into safe mode all the time.TIPSUsing Rest Mode with 6TB Hard Drive Rest mode can be used with larger hard drives but when turning it on you must physically press the power button, and hold it for about 6 seconds. If you turn on the ps4 this way it will not boot into the safe mode asking you to reinstall the firmware. About 99% of the time I do it this way my ps4 will turn on fine, and any game that was downloaded in rest mode has worked for me.It's a bit of a hassle but the convenience of using rest mode to download games, and updates is worth it along with the extra storage space.When turning on my ps4 this way I have encountered very little problems. While it is a bit annoying it is still worth it, and everything else works perfectly. I highly recommend this if you are looking to upgrade your ps4's hard drive.EDIT: I am having issues with rest mode now.My ps4 did have a power outage, and now it seems to always boot into rest mode. I am not sure if the outage is the cause, but I just wanted to notify all of you. My ps4 doesn't have anything to download anymore so that may be it as well. I am thinking of doing a reinstall to test, and will update once everything is completed.EDIT 2: It seems that when the ps4 has something downloading it will work in rest mode, and shut down properly. But if there is nothing downloading the ps4 does not know how to shut down the large hard drive, and that is how the safe mode issue is caused. I also can't shut down the ps4 unless something is downloading, but modes have issues.

****UPDATE 5/11/16: As of the latest PS4 firmaware update -- "suspend" mode now works with non laptop/3.5 inch mass storage drives. My 4TB Hybrid SSD now properly suspends. Thank you Sony gods!**********Let me start off by saying that you, as a customer, must do your research when adding any hardware accessory that modifies the function of your PS4. Most reviews criticizing this unit for not allow you to use a hard drive with 5/6 TB's is not the limitation of this accessory, it's a limitation of the PS4. Will higher capacity drives work? Yes, but there's exception to the functions of your PS4, which is not permeated by this Nyko accessory, but by the PS4 operating system itself.I believe Nyko could have done a better job educating the consumer in it's boxing/manual perhaps, however, I feel this is the responsibility of the consumer to research this prior to any modification to their console. It's like someone jail breaking their iPhone, but they don't know the potential negative affects of doing so, because they didn't do their research beforehand.This accessory, essentially, allows you to use a standard 3.5 desktop hard drive. Currently, I use a 4TB SSHD by Seagate inside. From my research, people whom upgraded to anything larger than 4TB's have been having issues (sleep mode, power issues, restarts), which again, is not this accessories fault. You may see people stating that 5TB+ hard drives work, and they're not wrong. However, many (not all) run into functionality issues where bootup times are actually longer, access times for loading while playing games are longer, and other related issues. But this is NOT caused by the Nyko Data Bank!! It's an issue with the PS4's operating system of handling large volume storage.Now on to my actual review of this unit:Hardware -- It comes with a screw driver that you use to unscrew the single screw that's required to swap out the hard drive. The quality of the actual unit itself is on par with the PS4 itself. It's made of plastic, and in my estimation, feels exactly like the PS4's material. The fit of the unit is great; no forcing or struggling to slide and snap anything in. It slid into place and fit like a glove.Functionality -- It does what it advertises, it allows you to upgrade your PS4's internal storage to that of a higher capacity, 3.5 inch, desktop hard drive. I formatted the hard drive FIRST to exFAT (PS4 plays very nicely with this format), slid it into place, safely and securely into the Nyko expansion bay (make sure the connection is solid and firm, it should not wiggle at all). I'm using a Seagate 4TB SSHD, and after doing a clean install of the PS4 firmware, I've loaded my restore data onto this hard drive, and everything works as normal, with the benefit of a larger capacity drive. No problems with sleep mode, no problems with restarts.My tip for ANYONE questioning whether they should get this or not because of the other reviews.1.) Do your research.2.) Use hard drives 4TB's or smaller in capacity (a soft performance limitation caused by the PS4 OS, not Nyko's expansion bay)3.) Using a PC, format your new hard drive as exFAT first, before putting into the Nyko unit4.) Double check ALL connections prior to booting up your PS4 with the new hardware installed***Problems you may run into NOT because of this accessory1.) The PS4 OS, currently doesn't play nicely with large volume storage. This is why, for the meantime, Nyko recommends 2TB's. I'm currently using a 4TB drive which I'm happy with.2.) You WILL have issues with suspend mode when using higher capacity drives, however again, this is NOT a problem caused by this Nyko unit, this is a limitation of the current PS4 firmware. Sony will need to put out an update that supports suspend/sleep mode with higher capacity drives. For now, you will just have to shut off your PS4 normally until then. If you're ok with this, then there isn't any issues.

Es una maravilla, todo llego en perfectas condiciones y con los manuales muy bien explicados con imágenes muy precisas. 100% recomendable, en mi caso instale un disco duro de 2 TB que es lo máximo que recomienda Nyko y que es el limite soportado oficialmente por Sony hasta el dia de hoy, el disco que instale es un Seagate ST2000DX001 SSHD y la verdad que va muy bien y el precio al igual que este accesorio lo encontré en este sitio mas barato que en ningún otro lugar.
