-Upgrading- Step by Step PS4 to PS4 PRO

[Mature]

If you're getting a Pro, you may also want to think about getting a SSD or a hybrid. It significantly reduces load times, especially changing zones. THats gonna be helpful during early access when a storm of people will be trying to log in at the same time lol.

Forgot to ask, do I get the ssd sorted first into the pro before I do all the transfers from 4 to pro?

If you don't mind me asking what's the "fastest" SSD I could get or the better one? Cheers

If you have both the ps4 and the ps4 pro still, i would recommend this way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoIOifDL1vM. The reason why i suggest this is because my friend backed up his data on the cloud and he then transferred it the pro. everything was fine and dandy but his character was missing. Had to call support to get it back. That was just one instance.

If you have ps plus, you can just upload all of your game data, and download it to your PS4 pro when you install the game again.

Thats what i did anyway.

If you're getting a Pro, you may also want to think about getting a SSD or a hybrid. It significantly reduces load times, especially changing zones. THats gonna be helpful during early access when a storm of people will be trying to log in at the same time lol.

This may hold true however SE are actually optimizing Stormblood for the PS4 Pro so load times may be even shorter possibly
I have always been cautious about reliability (or life) of ssd or hybrid.

Hi!
I have a PS4 and, with the PS4 Pro Framerate patch*, I'm thinking about getting a PS4 Pro. If i do, I will keep my PS4.
So here are my questions:

Can I remove the SSD i put in my PS4, put it into the PS4 Pro and just start or "safe mode" start? (then put the PS4 Pro's HD into the PS4), or do I need to save my datas and recover them twice?

Can I play XIV on both PS4 Pro and PS4 (one at a time)?

R25:2 modes:
- one keeps resolution and improves framerate - steady 60fps even at crowded places
- one keeps current framerate and improves resolution

Q25 : Lors du Fan Festival, vous avez mentionné des plans pour le support PlayStation®4 Pro. Est-ce que ceci est prévu pour la 4.0 ?

R25 : Oui, il y aura 2 modes disponibles.
Un mode qui gardera la résolution actuelle tout en augmentant le taux de rafraichissement. Vous pouvez vous attendre à 60 IPS de manière stable même dans les scènes où il y a beaucoup de monde.

L’autre mode gardent le maintient le taux de rafraîchissement actuel mais augmente la résolution.

Vous pourrez toujours profiter du jeu sans une PlayStation®4 Pro.
