Causes of Error CE-35694-7

Replace hard drive

If, after all the manipulations, you still do not have enough free space, then it’s time to install a new, more capacious hard drive. In general, based on how much modern computer games weigh, it is recommended to purchase an HDD with a volume of at least 1 TB. What hard drives are suitable for PS 4? The Seagate 2TB Laptop hard drive has proven itself well. The Western Digital Black range is also great (top versions can hold up to 6 TB). Solid-state counterparts, of course, will cost more, they will hold less, and will use up resources much faster. Although, the loading speed of the operating system and the most demanding video games increases by 20% or more.
