hi

i have an "adata sd700 256gb" external ssd that i'm using with my "base ps4". the loading times of all games are far more better on external ssd than internal hdd but there's two exclusion!

about an year ago i feel too much stuttering while playing "evil within 2" and after running it from internal hdd most of stuttering was gone!

and now after completing "hitman 2016" on ssd while getting stuttering on some areas i decided to play it again but this time on hdd then i found out i have less stuttering on internal hdd drive!

still i get benefit from faster loading times on games installed on external ssd but i think maybe external ssd load textures faster and that causes more pressure on hardware which resulted in more stuttering!

is it true?

tnx

how full is the ssd?

about 80% at most but usually about 60%

let me ask my question differently again:

if i'm playing an open open world game on a faulty hard drive that loads textures too slow that almost always textures are 50% loaded when i'm entering and exiting a location does that mean less pressure on gpu and cpu?
