PlayStation 4 Pro PS4 SATA 3 Hard Drive 1

Sony hasn't said much about the PlayStation 4 Pro since it was revealed, with much of its attention being focused on PlayStation VR over the past few weeks. But one thing it has clarified following an interview with Japanese website 4Gamer.net is that the new system will support SATA 3 hard drives, unlike its predecessor.

For those out of the loop, the SATA 3 standard has a maximum data transfer rate of six gigabits-per-second, which should result in faster loading and game installs should you upgrade. The current PlayStation 4 supports the SATA 2 model, which has a threshold of three gigabits-per-second. Good news for the impatient among you, then.
