Yep very interesting. Miss my Zed.

Welcome aboard.

Welcome aboard Clive.

I follow him too and quite a lot of other random stuff non Zed related like; GunsOfTheWorld Iraqveteran8888 Bad Obsession Motorsport Active Self Protection Jaboody Dubs BLR ~ Bad Lip Reading ....And a whole load more. Too much to list them all.

Good to know. Thanks for clearing that up.

Nice. Welcome aboard.

Cheers Olly. I already have "automatic upload" set up as I found out yesterday whilst checking so all my game saves are duplicated on that. Funnily enough though this all started because I have the latest BF1 update to download which I can't do because I need more memory/storage space for it. I deleted all unnecessary stuff on my PS4 like picture captures from games where I've received trophies etc but it still wasn't enough. 2000GB (2TB) should be plenty for now, ...I hope.

Looks great but they always do. Fingers crossed all goes well. One thing.... Do you really want to go down the trailer route? What are you planning on using to tow the trailer with the car on? It needs to be pretty big (heavy) so that it's not dangerous to tow with. I used to work for Indespension Trailers you see for a short while.

Thinking I'll go for the Barracuda as it's the cheapest with decent features and seems to be a popular option. Thanks everyone for all & any input. Will update this with some info of how it all goes and some pictures providing I don't mess it up.

Yes thanks but it's always good to ask others in case they have personal experience of buying something from elsewhere which may not have been listed in that link.

Well I've just watched a great, easy to follow video on this subject via Youtube.... Going to do a bit more research on getting a compatible 2TB HDD to see if I can find one below a £100 (please post any suggestions or shops etc) but failing that I'll most likely get the Seagate 2TB HDD I posted the link to from Amazon.

Thank you for the link Strudul. Re: HDD sizes etc. Title edited but I'll leave my mistake in the posts as it's only fair to admit my mistakes rather than hide them.

Fair enough you're right.

Alas no Dan it only has the 2 on the front on my model. Daft really but it is what it is. Out of curiosity do you remember what HDD it was and the memory space? The HDD I selected above should just be straight swaps so no need for any bracket AFAIK which I googled but couldn't find to see.

I do agree with you that for out & out memory space an external hard drive is without doubt the way to go. I looked at a Seagate 4TB HDD and it was just to thick to go inside the PS4 unfortunately (as it was 13mm I think). Usually as I get rid of games I delete the data off my console but with the games being the sizes they are these days with lots of updates etc, I just have too many games on the go now to keep doing that. I'm also eagerly awaiting "Red Dead Redemption 2" which I suspect will be huge so as much memory as possible is needed. Made my mind up to go for a 2TB now as that's the biggest I can fit inside the PS4 currently AFAIK.

Everything I've read says to me that this should be a doddle. If you look at the link I put at the bottom of my post it tells you exactly how to do it for each specific model number. For example my PS4 is a CUH-1200 series so simply needs one of the top panels sliding off, which then gives you access to where the HDD is located. You then just unscrew one screw and remove the HDD which is held in a cradle. Remove the old HDD from the cradle and put the new (1TB or 2TB) HDD in the cradle and re-fit in reverse order of removal. Before doing the above you need to save your "games save data" to the cloud which is free for PSN Plus members (or to a 3.0 USB if you're not a PSN Plus member) and using a 3.0 or later USB again (or external drive) to download the PS4 latest software update so that you can upload that onto the new HDD once fitted. I thought of that Dan but Sony have made it easy for us Playstation users to upgrade our consoles internally unlike the Xboxe's. You see I'd prefer not to have something plugged into the front of my USB ports all the time or a black box next to my console. Upgrading the internal HDD will give the PS4 an OEM look still but with the benefit of increased memory.

Hello all, I have a Sony Playstation 4 (Metal Gear Solid V Limited Edition) which I love so have no intention of selling it. I'd like to upgrade the memory on it as I have filled the measly 500GB already (can't update BF1 now without more memory ). The PS4 for those that don't know uses a 2.5" SATA HDD so I have been looking at 1TB options as well as my prefered option of a 2TB HDD. I have done some research on this so I know it can be done easily enough providing you use a HDD which does not exceed 9.5mm in depth as it just won't fit the PS4 otherwise (so needs to be slim). Looking at this as my 1TB option: https://www.amazon.c...ocketlintc07-21 And this one as a 2TB option: https://www.amazon.c...x/dp/B00I8O6OQ4 Does anyone know anything about using either of the two HDD's above? The other thing have any of you reading this done this yourself? Any tips if so? Here's some info on doing this from Sony if anyone else is interested or considering it.

Arrh sorry I get you now as I didn't notice he mentioned those being replaced. I agree with you that AFAIK the spark plug tube seals cannot be replaced, ...maybe the Op has made a mistake or can fill us in explaining further. When mine failed I had complete new rocker covers and gaskets done on both sides. Expensive job.

Happy Birthday Pete.

Great stuff.

The rubber gaskets which seal it to the head can be replaced. See here: http://www.350z-uk.c...l-leaks-vq35de/ Sometimes though the rocker could be cracked in places or the plug tube gaskets are gone so in that instance you need the whole lot.

Arrrhh I thought maybe they'd come out with another new model. The 250 Cup looks very cool indeed. Would love to have driven that, ...bit jealous. Good luck with the Elise hunt.

Nice, ..that is all
