Can I switch off my ps4 with an external hard drive without disconnecting the hard drive in the settings?

He

Yes

I even connected 2 hard drives, that's not a problem, you don't have to reconnect them, it is displayed immediately when you turn them on again

Br

Yes but,

It's like on a PC, data could be lost.

Ok, so always separate in the settings

Thought when the ps4 shuts down it does that by itself, because I don't feel like losing data

ca

Yes

I also have an external plate, turn off my PS4 as normal without first disconnecting the plate. Never had problems with. The console does everything on its own. Even when starting, the external one is recognized immediately and you can start immediately.

Thanks for the information
