If you’re like most people, you probably don’t think about backing up your PlayStation 4. But it’s a good idea to do so, especially if you have a large game library or if you’re worried about losing your data in the event of a hardware failure. Here are some tips on how to backup your PS4.

  1. Make a backup of your system’s hard drive. This is the best way to protect your data if something happens to your PS4’s internal storage. You can use a USB drive or an external hard drive connected to your computer.
  2. Make a backup of your game saves and profiles. This includes any progress you’ve made in games and any customizations you’ve made to your profile (such as avatars and settings). You can do this by copying the files to an external storage device or by using the PlayStation 4’s built-in cloud storage feature.
  3. Back up important system settings and files using Sony’s System Update Service (SUS). This service allows you to back up important system files, including those that control how games run and interact with other devices on your network (such as PlayStation 3s). To use SUS, first make sure that it is enabled on your PS4 by going into Settings > System > Update Services > Enable SUS . Then back up important files using the SUS tools that are available in Settings > System > Update Services . ..
