Sony showed off a preview of the next software update for the playStation4 today.which add long waited feature to the console.One of the biggest difference between the Xbox One and PS4 was the ability to use external storage.While Xbox One owners have been able to do this for ages, the only way
for owners to expand storage for a PS4 has been to replace the internal
drive. Plugging an external hard drive to an Xbox One allowed you to download
and run games of it. The PS4 had no such option, restricting the use of
USB storage to play music and video, or back up an entire PS4. This will
change with the PS4 system software update 4.50 codenamed Sasuke.
In the upcoming 4.50 software, Sony is finally adding the ability to
simply plug in a USB 3.0 hard drive to instantly get more space, and
will support hard drives up to 8TB. Content installed on the external
drive will show up in the PlayStation 4 software alongside anything on
the internal drive.
Other additions with the 4.50 update include adding the ability to
view Blu-ray movies in stereoscopic 3D directly on the PS VR headset.
Further come the ability to post directly into the Activity Feed on PSN,
a simplified notification list, and a revamped Quick Menu that takes
less of the gameplay screen.
Along with these additions, you can finally use your own screenshots and
pictures as a wallpaper. The PS4 system software update 4.50 is
currently in beta. Judging by past betas, we should see this hit the
general public by the end of the month at the very latest.
