Hello guys, after following the instructions on the site about external hard drives, I found a good solution for me would be the 4TB expansion from seagate so I went to a portuguese site and asked for it to be sent here!
Thing is I didn't even know that those hard drives use power cords (a bummer since I have like 5 or 6 things constantly plugged in my room)...and after seeing a video I see that the connections are these flat metal things...and in Portugal we have those two roundish points (don't know how to explain it).
So what kind of adapter do I need? Is there any risk about using one?
Thanks
Edit: Also, I usually switch my PS4 from one city to another once every week...so if I take my external harddrive with me I need to use the option in the menu to stop the external storage? Or can I just turn off my ps4 and take both things with me?
Another thing...when you go to sleep and shut off your ps4, do you shut off the harddrive? Or do you leave it plugged in?
@AFCC You can turn off the hard drive and it shouldn't effect anything. You obviously won't be able to play any games installed on the HDD until you turn it on and they will have a yellow triangle with a '!'.
Unplug my USB hdd all the time and not notice any negative effects. As long you don't do anything dumb like turn off while playing a game or saving, it should be OK.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@andreoni79 I find these things so dumb...why not make it universal? Ahah but thanks! I think I can get one pretty cheap...hope it doesn't burn or whatever!
