An SSD can help you out by providing a bit of a faster install speed, an occasional 2-3FPS boost in some games, and faster navigation within your console’s user interface. However, it won’t do much for the load times compared to how fast a PC or PlayStation 5 loads video games with an SSD – that’s because the PS4 is older hardware and was not made with SSD support in mind. So, it comes down to your preference regarding whether you think the aforementioned aspects are enough to buy an SSD for.
