My PS4 has just hung up and has not responded for 2-3 minutes then I took it off the electricity while she was still in operation and then put it back after 10 seconds. Now there was the looked at whether with the system memory everything is still ok. That took about 1 minute or less, and you should not take it off the power when it's in operation. Is hardware damage ruled out when it goes back on and you can do anything? My files are still there.
Do not unplug the power plug! This will break the power supply. Instead press for about 10 seconds the power button until a beep sounds then the ps4 turns off and you can easily turn it back on
But the ps4 is running again now. If it runs again, I can rule out a hardware problem, right?
It may be hardware which I do not believe I believe it is a software problem
Never pull a plug, better press and hold the power button for a few seconds to force a reboot
it does not have to happen but if you are unlucky it can happen that your data is gone and the hard drive is damaged
it knows very often to go well and then suddenly not more and everything is gone, so better to do without directly do it, but also nothing happens away, the life of the hard disk decreases
But if the ps4 is still running, the hardware is not broken or it?
No, the hardware usually nothing really happens, but the disk can be damaged or already be, you do not notice immediately, and may eventually lead to data loss
And the power supply?
That should happen least, because there's hardware which is burdened worse
I have the problems synonymous it must be due to the firmware just if it happens again as I do then you are on the safe side
It's probably all io stayed otherwise… See Craft.
But a power supply is not broken by it. Rather, one can lose data on the hard disk if the device, including for PCs, is saving.
