Accepted Answer

Yes, you can clone a PS4 hard drive to SSD. As we know, the PS4 has 500GB of storage, so it will fill up with more and more games over time, leaving less room for new games. If your PS4 hard drive is almost full as you keep installing games, you may need to upgrade your PS4 hard drive.
