Frankly it is a pain in the ass, would much rather be able to simply put the 2tb drive inside the 360, but, you cannot because the internal drive is proprietary custom hardware just like the controllers. With the PS3 and PS4 you just backup the data on the old drive and restore it onto the new drive which is bog standard laptop drive SATA hardware. Likewise windows sees the DS4 as a standard game controller, just like every other game controller ever used on PC before the XBOX controllers came along.
Funny how Rollo seems to equate locked down with freedom. The PC's success was built on it being an open platform. M$ is closing it up from all directions and Rollo thinks this is good....
Gstan likes to boast about how he "p3wns" me over on BabbleTechRefuse:

Lets look at the above.
In what reality is:
1. Back up drive contents
2. Remove case cover
3. Remove drive
4. Install new drive
5. Restore case cover
6. Restore old drive contents back on to new drive
7. Lose use of space on PS4
preferable to:
1. Plug in drive
2. Use new drive with faster interface as well as old drive
I think this is illustrative of one of three things:
A. GStan is incredibly stupid. Tape U is some sort of rehab program for the disabled, and he doesn't even know he's disabled. Only a disabled person could call plugging in a drive a "pain in the ass" compared to seven steps, two of which involve transferring 100s of GBs of data off/on a drive.
B. GStan will just say the opposite of what I say to be an internet troll.
C. GStan really is a Sony shill who had to "earn" his PS4 by posting about them.
None of the options are good.
The above post is the equivalent of "I like to ride my bike to work in the rain with fish strapped to my feet, and flat tires on my bike because to take the Yaris I'd have to open and close the car door!"
Totally.batshit.crazy.
