PS4 System Storage Management - 500GB harddrive

SATA 2.5" with max height of 9.5mm, minimal storage size 160GB (145 HDD models and 291 SSD models comply to that)

SSD can also be used, but it seems that on the PS4 there is even less incentive (compared to PS3) to replace the drive for a SSD, best price/performance are still 7200rpm drives.
