I was reading you can use up to a 5tb external hard drive for a ps4? Would this mean i can download and install games on it and still be able to play them? Such as ESO which is almost a 100gb game.. Along with Mafia 3, FO4, Skyrim, etc. I'm just tired of having to delete/remove things just to update my games.. Mainly because every time ESO is updated its 20gb+ update. I have a 500gb PS4 and really don't wanna upgrade the HDD or buy a new system. Can anyone provide me with information or anyone that has some experience which using one on a ps4?

When the new update is available, you can hook up to an 8TB external hard drive, you can install games and applications on it but all save data will be stored on the consoles internal hard drive

What do you mean speed? RPM of the drive and throughput are pretty standard.
