Better and Faster Harddrive Interface
It’s not just graphical and processing power where the PS4 Pro has got an advantage over the standard system but it also gets a bit of an upgrade when it comes to storage solutions too. While the older PS4 model came with a 1TB hard drive as standard, which may be reason enough for some players with launch models to make the upgrade, you’ll also be able to get a superior performance in terms of transfer rates from the Pro.
This is all thanks to the SATA III hard drive interface that it’s running under the hood. You may see some improvements over your standard PS4 with the 1TB hard drive already installed in the Pro, but the real benefit of this interface comes when installing a Solid State Drive (SSD) into your system. Load and boot times will be slashed significantly, allowing you to jump into your games and experiences far faster than before.
