(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Was wondering why I can't just backup to this external 2TB I just got, and then swap it from the stock 500GB one and initialize with the separate USB..

The backup will be on the the hard drive I'm putting in so why exactly do I need a separate whole harddrive [which is entirely inconvenient] just to restore the PS4 with the backup?
