When you install the drive and begin firing up your games, you may be upset to discover that it's not at all faster than the 500 GB or 1 TB drive that came with your PS4 to begin with. Really, it's not one bit faster. You can time them and they load games and levels with seconds of one another. After seeing this, you may ask why you bothered paying a premium for the drive. After all, there are reliable, cheaper 2.5" 2TB drives on the market?
The answer lies in how the drive works and how it uses the onboard 8 GB of faster flash space. The drive has onboard intelligence the monitors your activity. As you do things like repeatedly launch your current favorite game, the drive takes note of this and begins storing that game's or games' data in flash. As a result, subsequent loads become faster and faster, usually maxing out around the 5th load. By then, you'll see times dramatically faster, usually on par with SSDs. If you're a typical PS4 user, mostly sticking with one or two favorites of the moment, this drive will be immensely beneficial in terms of performance once you give it a week or two to learn your habits (yes, you can shortcut this by opening, quitting completely, and then reopening your favorite game a few times in a row).
Now, if you're not a typical user, and find you regularly jump around to lots of different game and activities, then this drive probably isn't for you. Its performance gains rely on your having data you access with frequency. If that's not your behavior, it'll never be able to pin down on flash what you're likely to reach for next, instead having to load from the slow 5400rpm platter each time. In that case, a true SSD is your only hope for a noticeable improvement in speed, but then you're likely sacrificing storage space for speed. Used as intended, this drive offer the potential for both.
Package arrived timely.
Backed up the data of my original HD to an external Hard Drive (PS4 makes it pretty simple) and downloaded the full system update data from Playstation.com to a thumb drive (make sure it's the 900+ MB file located in the download link near the bottom of the web page. Don't be like me and started panicking when the ps4 said it couldn't use the software update because it wasn't the right version and spent another 30 minutes re-downloading the wrong software version over again and scouring the internet looking for answers)
The install of the HD itself was straight forward. Remove the cover hiding the hard drive, remove one screw holding the hard drive in place an pull the enclosure out, remove the 4 screws holding the hard drive to the enclosure, remove old hard drive, replace with the new one, screw the hard drive back to the enclosure with the 4 screws, slide hard drive back into ps4, secure the final screw and replace the cover back on the ps4 and done.
Boot the ps4 back up. When prompted, plug in the thumb drive containing the system software update. Let it run. System will boot like a fresh brand new ps4. Go to settings and locate the restore option. Plug in the external hard drive with your backed up files. And boom, you're back in business with a massive amount of storage space at your disposal.

Jedoch ist die Festplatte selbst verdammt schnell und hat bisjetzt keine Probleme gemacht.
Ich würde sie auf jedenfall ein zweites mal kaufen - jedoch würde die Festplatte warscheinlich nur in einem geeigneten Gerät die Volle Leistung bringen. (empfehle eher PC/Laptop)
