Just to note that if you have this problem and you initialize the ps4 with the original hard drive, it will likely fix the problem. However, if the hard drive is faulty, despite a successful initialization, the hard drive will likely fail again at some point. It may not be immediate. So, I would suggest if this happens twice with the same hard drive, replace it.

@Brian Oh no! I didn't think the PS5 would suffer from this so early! I have heard that the PS5 suffers from some HDMI "handshake" issues with some TV's, which can result in a black screen. It may be worth trying a different TV, HDMI cable or both, just to rule that out. Failing that, I'm sorry to say that you likely have a defective unit. It should still be under warranty so I wouldn't risk opening it up, I'd send it back to Sony! Especially if you've tried all the different resetting options from Safe Mode. Good luck! 👍

Just a suggestion, but if you have a PC try installing Hard Disk Sentinel Pro (Trial version) and checking SMART status of the PS4 drive by plugging that into a SATA port on your PC's motherboard. If the health is below 90% you will most likely experience HDD issue's (e.g. bad sectors which have been re-located etc) and consider replacing before it completely fails.

This is actually not the very early model as the first models had glossy cover. First ones had touch buttons but this clearly has physical button. Hard drive problem is caused by turning console off at the wrong time (it actually says it at the screen, not to turn off). Not sure why it turns it self off (I have similar problem). Sometimes games run for hours, sometimes it reboots after few minutes. I managed to move save game data to another console with help of new power source, so there is something definitely wrong with that. I bet you might get you wish to open the console again in near future. Thanks for the great content, you should apply David Attenborough's job as you got very soothing voice.

StezStix I need help. I have a ps4 pro model. That usually freezes at the ps logo on boot up 99% of time. Weird thing is sometimes it also shuts down at this stage instead. When it does that you kinda hear a kind of s snap or zap. Almost like something component in the ps4 blew. Or some one just got shocked. Once it shuts down. I try to start it up again and the ps4 beeps but doesn't start up. Eventually I get it to boot up again. It freezes or shutsdown again like before. So originally I thought it was a hard drive issue. I reinstalled and it worked but the ps4 wouldn't shutdown now. Great! What's next. Eventually it started to freeze at the ps logo again. Nice back to square one. I reinstalled again same exact weird result. I checked the hard drive. Did read right tests the whole 9. Hard drive is fine! Reformated drive reinstalled same exact issue. Replaced drive with a newer throughly tested drive. Again exact same cycle of problems. I have been working on this for days. It can't be the hard drive. Could it be the power supply? Apu? Satan controller? I honestly have no idea where to go from here. not sure if I can afford new parts especially if I don't know what the issue is. I got ripped of buying this ps4 pro and I can't even seem to fix it even after buying a new hard drive and spending days on this. To top it off I started to talk to technicians that do this kind of work and they r baffled too. I need help or this ps4 is going to learn to fly from a 2nd story window.

Hi Derek. Wow, that is an unusual situation and definitely not something I've come across before. Going off the 'snap' you hear, that could be a coincidence as the plastic can expand when the system heats up a bit. If it's a loud snap or a pop, then I would suspect a short circuit. Possibly the power supply. Having said all that, I'm just guessing. I know someone who will have a much better idea, hopefully he will see this. @TheCod3r .

None of these worked so perhaps a hard drive might need to be replaced

Yeah, replacing the hard drive usually solves the issue if the safe mode options don't. Good luck 👍

My problem same as yours , do you think I need to buy a new hardrive??

Hi Louis, if you can't get it to work by using the safe mode options, then yes a new hard drive will probably solve the problem 👍

Thanks Louis! I can't say 100% because you might have a problem inside the console somewhere. But if you are getting the PS Logo, and a display on the screen, then i would say 90% of the time a new hdd will sort it out. The PS4 hdds are notorious for breaking down! Definitely worth a go. Good luck 👍

My ps4 is showing the ps4 symbol then a black screen, is that the blue light of death? Is could it be something else?
