    The product comprised a cool 2TB very slim 2.5 Seagate HDD, metal housing with connection tray for re-using the old HDD removed from the PS4, SATA connection cable, an 8GB USB drive, and a mini Phillips head screw driver. There is also a set of instructions on how to replace the 2TB drive into the PS4. Please read the instructions carefully, and several times to make that the correct files are backed up in the USB drive so that one can get back all the game data when the game apps are re-installed in the new 2TB drive, or you will have to start all over again in your game journey. Here are so me things to take note of which were not covered in the instructions: 1. The drive housing in the PS4 is made for the slightly thicker Samsung 2.5 drive. The thickness is caused by the larger damped top cover of the Samsung drive, although it is technically the same form factor as the replacement Seagate drive.So when you replace with the Seagate 2 TB with the slimmer profile, you do have to align the four screw holes in place with the housing while attaching the screws. In the end, you will see a slight gap between the installed Seagate drive and the base of the housing. That is OK. Being properly aligned with the housings screw holes is critical to get the drive to slot in properly to the PS4 drive interface. 2. Not so happy with the teeny tiny screw driver provided in the kit because it has a small handle that does not handle well or exert sufficient torque to undo the main central screw in the pS4. I ended up using my own Torx head screw driver. This is the reason why I gave the product 4 instead of 5 stars.

    the kit was easy to use with clear instructions, we had no problems making the switch. new hd is working great and we are very happy! however i am taking off one star because the external hd case we got is faulty. (please note the flash drive gave us no problems, just the hd case) its a great concept and very convenient, being able to just pop in the old hard drive and have an external is great! but the external hd housing provided in our kit had a finicky connection, or some similar problem. we planned to use the old playstation hd as an external on our wiiU but had an entire afternoon and evening of frustration trying to get the hd to stay connected. it would just randomly disconnect and corrupt any data on the hd which required reformatting every time. we switched the old ps4 hd into another external casing to experiment and found that the problem lay in the casing itself. it had similar problems connecting to our laptops, the wiiU, and the ps4 regardless of which hd was installed. in the end not a huge loss since you can get a decent casing at a reasonable price, but it was kind of disappointing and frustrating that the provided equipment didnt function properly. overall still a good product though, the most important part for us (having more storage on the ps4) works flawlessly and so i would still recommend this product if you dont mind that the external case might not work.
