Just imagine all those things that one can get done with that extra 10 seconds.
With updates is not expansion on Windows. It replace and fix bugs. It is still no where near 10GB. I take that you don't touch computer that often. Basically you're a computer literate taking claim as you know everything.
The definition of fresh is when you have no other program installed. Yes it will get big as you add games into it. That is common senses.
Matter of fact, you were replying to the PS4 OS post, I don't know how are you end up adding Windows OS into the topic. Two different OS system and size you can't compare. Apple to Orange.
You're relying on IGN source.. basically you're just computer literate.

Uh, no. Windows keeps copies of many files in the system in the off-chance that an application requires a particular version, this is better known as the Side by Side (SxS) Configuration.
FTR, the WinSxS folder is not an actual folder, it is a junction to various files about the drive.
Yes, and sometimes it introduces themIt replace and fix bugs. It is still no where near 10GB. I take that you don't touch computer that often. Basically you're a computer literate taking claim as you know everything.
Lol... games.The definition of fresh is when you have no other program installed. Yes it will get big as you add games into it. That is common senses.
my windows drive has absolutely no games on it and 99.7GB are consumed (30 by the Windows folder alone).
^.^ i decompile and write code to run gaming console emulators on the PC,You're relying on IGN source.. basically you're just computer literate.
I know more about them you do.
Come talk to me in 4 or so years when your existing windows install grown to 30GB's (not including the programs folder directory) due to WinSxS expanding, MSVC updates, sdk updates, Driver updates, and general program software updates served from the microsoft website.
I doubt you will, as a majority of people can't even keep their windows installs running properly 12 months.
As for disk sizing, i missed an i between G and B.
A 500GiB hdd has between 464 and 466GB 466GB total space. (1GiB advertised is actually 0.9313 GB in reality).
Of that 466GB, the installed OS uses and reserves about 58GB, or 93GiB.

I build custom computer/system, installed in many different OS Linux, Windows, OSX for the past 17 years. Knowing how to code is not necessary makes you know how to service and manage your system. A friend of mine knows how to code, but doesn't know shit about how to build computer and deploy new systems.
You have an OS consume 98GB alone, you aren't managing your windows correctly.
Size increase due to Shadowcopy and System Restoration automatically backup. This PC rig is 2 years old, OS itself haven't even hit 98GB, not even 30GB on the SSD. Applications are all installed on separated SSD.
~400mb Recovery
~150MB EFI
~+/-10GB OS
+/-15GB Shadowcop & system restore & previous installed extracted file you can delete.
OS alone 10GB.
In fact, you WERE relying on IGN or source to make your claim is already a flaw in you. I'm speaking from experiences in my past of servicing computers.
Relying on publicity stun, news website are mostly over exaggerated and lack of source to backup those claims. Journalism are just doing their job to make the articles troublesome and to look for better impact on the reader. All those claim are false so far, none are major issue because not many has those issues. If you really have issues, best to go on Overclock.net forums where you can actually meet experienced computer builders and problem solvers.
By managing, it means to maintain the system clean. Just like how you maintain your car if you have a car. A house, you vacuum your place right? Otherwise it would be like collecting bunch of garbage.
/thread, I'm done here

Getting back to the OP, I checked my PS4 loading times. For areas that are within the same realm its about 9 seconds on a teleport, from realm to realm its about 12 seconds. No SSD, stock system
Good, because i don't think you really understood the difference between new operating system and an old one with hundreds of updates with side by side configuration set ;3I build custom computer/system, installed in many different OS Linux, Windows, OSX for the past 17 years.

Your inability to read properly didn't help either.
Its going to be different depending on physical file cluster location on the PS4's mechanical HDD and how spread out the files are physically.
The head/arm will have to flick back and forth across the platter.
