I can download games from ps store and they work just fine as well its just the new discs that it won't read Can somebody please help me. By Kiara Long. I realized PS4 games use your storage even though you buy the disc versions. People have bandwidth caps and cant download 50GB for each game. Thus you can delete games and reclaim space. Jan 17, 2017 - So the new PS4 battlefront update 1.12 will not download for me. In the past with games saying I don't have enough space even though I did.

Hello.

Today we have bought WWE 2K16 disc game. When trying to play it for the first time, we've got error CE-33198-4: 'There is not enough free space in system storage to start the application, you must free up at least 1,69 GB more space.'

We have deleted several data and now we have 72,95 GB of free space. But when trying again, we get a new error code CE-35694-7, just: 'there is not enough free space in system storage'. We have restarted the PS4, we have turned off and on... but we always get CE-35694-7 error.

As the game's space requirement is 47 GB and we have almost 73 GB of free space, this error makes no sense.

How can we fix this? We spent 50 € and we want to enjoy our new game!!! :Angry:

Thanks and regards.

When downloading a game you need double the amount of space for the initial download and install. So for a 47GB game you will need to free up at least 94GB of space.

After the install the extra space used will be made available for use again.

Thank you very much. I posted this in Spanish too and another user told me the same, to double free space. I'll try.

It worked! Thank you very much :Smile:

Is this the same when an application won't update due to lack of space although I have around 30gb free?

I had the code CE-35694-7 saying there is not enough free space but I have 113.1 GB and mafia 3 is 40 GB but still wont install

I'm playing skyrim and there's a bug where it says you need to free 0kb more space but I have a lot of space so FIT !!

I try to save ma game on skyrim but every time I try to it says free up atleast 0 KB even tho i have loads of space available 😕? HELP !

Same problem on Skyrim says I need 0KB free space -_- Can't save my game and is very annoying

Yeah I am having the 0kb error message as well...doesn't make any sense and makes the game not worth playing, because as soon as I stop it's all gone lmao

Sorry but i get the same problem!
I installed GTAV...did its update...i now have 23gb free....no downloads pending...and the system says not enough free space!

Well, I've got 2tb hard drive at my ps4, plenty of free space (more then 200gb) and I've got that error message (CE-35694-7 or CE-37704-1)all the time when I try to play new game. So I think it's software problem.

I'm still suffering this issue and I've tried almost every possible solution AND one too many resets/restarts/etc and I do have plenty of space just need this annoying error to be fixed

So, I recently got until dawn. I went to download it and it keeps saying that there isn't enough system storage. The game is 852 KB and I have 49.02 GB of free space. What am I doing wrong?

There is no way on god's green earth that until dawn is 852kb in size.

Anyways, if you've read the thread completely, you know that you need twice as much space as the game size to download and install a game.

Running with less than 100GB of disk space is always going to give you issues like this. Free some space.

agreed. Its about 48GB lol

how do you double free space???

I mean that if my game's space requirement was 47 GB, I had to free 47 * 2 = 94 GB and then it worked.

Realizing that this thread is closed, I might have a stupid question. Would this be an acceptable approach for something smaller, say a game version update?

The same rule applies, you need twice as much space as the game size, even to update games.

I have 700gb free and still connot download any games I rebuilted the data base no changes still the same error ce 35694 7 i need some help

How to upgrade your PS4, PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro hard drive

Having a PS4 for over ten minutes means your hard drive will most likely be filled with games, screenshots and more. If you don’t fancy using an external hard drive via USB then it’s easy to upgrade your existing one.

The PS4 can be as troublesome as a PSOne memory card when it comes to managing memory. Luckily, Sony’s PS4 Slim can now be purchased with a hefty 1TB hard drive, which itself is super easy to upgrade. The PS4 Pro comes with a 1TB hard drive as standard, making the upgrade a little more enticing.

However, if you’re still stuck with an older model, we’ve included an easy peasy walkthrough below to help you out.

All you need is a compatible HDD, a Phillips-head screwdriver, a laptop, a USB drive with around 5GB of free space, and some patience.

Oh, and our handy step-by-step guide on how to upgrade your PS4 HDD.

Step 1 – Choose your HDD

The PS4 isn’t difficult to upgrade, but you will need to take the console apart a bit and set aside a chunk of time to follow the necessary steps.

The first of those steps is to choose your HDD.

The PS4 has a 500GB 2.5-inch SATA HDD, the likes of which are usually found in a laptop. Your choice of replacement hard drive must be no thicker than 9.5mm, otherwise it won’t fit in the hard drive enclosure within the PS4.

That does limit your options somewhat, especially if you’re looking for a 2TB hard drive.

If you look at the 1TB alternatives, there are plenty that fit the specifications required for the PS4.
We chose two to test. The 1TB Seagate Laptop Thin SSHD is a hybrid 5400RPM SSD/HDD drive and 9mm thick. You can pick it up for around £75, making it a great affordable option.

We also picked out the WD Blue WD10SPCX, another 1TB 5400RPM hard drive, but this one is just 7mm thick. This WD drive is now around the £50 mark, making it the more affordable alternative for the Seagate.

Buy Now: WD Blue WD10SPCX 1TB at Amazon.co.uk (£64) | Amazon.com ($86)

You can use SSD drives as well, but for anything above a PS4-matching 500GB you’re looking at spending some serious dollah.

Step 2 – Prepare your PS4 for the update

Choosing the drive is the relatively straightforward part of the upgrade process. Next, comes actually preparing your PS4 for its little op.

You’ll need to back up your saved game files before you start tinkering with the internal hard drive. That’s because once you install the new drive, you’ll need to start from scratch.

There are two ways of backing up your save files, along with any other content you want to keep, such as video clips and screenshots.
The easiest option might be one you’ve already chosen. PlayStation Plus members can upload save files to the cloud, meaning you can download them right away when you boot up your upgraded hard drive.

Some of you will have this set up to happen automatically when your PS4 is in rest mode, meaning you can skip this step altogether.

You can check that by heading to Settings > Application Saved Data Management > Saved Data in System Storage > Upload to Online Storage. If any of your games listed in this section as a PlayStation Plus user say “Off”, their respective save games won’t have been uploaded to the cloud.

To fix that go to Settings > Power Saving Settings > Set Functions Available in Rest Mode. In this menu, make sure the Stay Connected to the Internet option is ticked to perform background uploads in Rest Mode.

If you’re not a PlayStation Plus member, or just want to make doubly sure your saves are safe, you can back them up on a USB drive. It has to be formatted to FAT, FAT32 or exFAT to store the saves on, but as long as it is, just plug it into the front USB ports of your PS4.

Then, head to Settings > Application Saved Data Management > Saved Data in System Storage > Copy to USB Storage Device. Within this menu, you’ll find a list of all your game saves.
You’ll have to go through each one individually, check Select All and then press Copy to USB. There’s no way to copy the whole lot in one batch, but despite being a slightly laborious process, it doesn’t take long to do once you get cracking.
If you’ve got any gameplay videos or screenshots you want to keep, you’ll want to move them to your USB drive, too. Just go to the Capture Gallery within the System Storage Management and select Copy to USB Storage Device within the options presented.

Step 3 – Remove the existing HDD

Once you’ve saved all the necessary saves and gameplay clips and screenshots, it’s time to start tackling the HDD business.

Turn off your PS4 completely – don’t just put it into Rest Mode – and unplug your console from the wall, removing any wires from the back of your PS4, too.

Move your PS4 to a flat surface such as a table, where you’ve got enough room for all your necessary tools.
Slide off the shiny part of your PS4’s casing. It’s pretty easy to do, especially when you place a thumb at either end and push away from the matte section. It might feel like it’s sticking in parts, but just apply a little force.
Once this section is completely removed, you’ll be able to see the metal HDD enclosure below. This enclosure is fixed down by a large screw, which is easily spotted thanks to the fact that it has the PlayStation button symbols engraved on it.
Grab your trusty Phillips screwdriver and tackle that PlayStation screw. Once you’ve removed it, you’ll be able to slide out the existing PS4 HDD in its little metal surround – the tray of which is highlighted by a little handle. PlayStation has made it as easy as it possibly could to replace.
You’ll then need to remove the four black screws at the corners of the hard drive tray, leaving the rubber bungs behind. The standard HGST drive will slide right out once they’re removed.

Step 4 – Install the new HDD

Put the new drive into the tray, making sure that the flat side is at the handle end of the tray and the exposed components are flat side down at the open end of the tray. Sometimes it’s useful to take a picture of the previous tray so you remember which way in the new one is supposed to go.
Then fit the black screws back into place. If you’ve opted for a slightly slimmer drive, you might need to manoeuvre it into place a bit.

This wasn’t an issue with the Seagate drive, but the WD Blue was a little more fiddly to get into place because of its slim 7mm profile.
Once your new drive is secured with the black screws, slide the tray back into the console until you feel it’s attached to the PS4 properly.

All that’s left to do is lock it into place with the PlayStation screw and clip the PS4 lid back on the top of your console.

Step 5 – Reinstall the PS4 system software

The next step will need your computer and a USB drive with at least 1GB of free space, formatted to exFAT, FAT32 or FAT – you can use the one with your saved games on it.

Because your PS4 now has a brand-new drive in, you’re going to have to reinstall the system software manually.

On your drive, create a folder named “PS4”. If you’re using the USB drive with your save files on, there will already be one with that name. Within that folder, create another folder called “UPDATE”.

When you’ve done that, head here to find the latest version of the PS4 system software. At the time we did it, the file was around 900MB in size, and it took around 10 minutes to download. Make sure you only get the software from the above link, because there are several other sites out there with incorrect software.

Once it’s downloaded, drag your file into the UPDATE folder on your hard drive.

You’ll next need to plug all your various wires back into your PS4, plug in the USB drive with the install file on it, and attach your DualShock 4 via USB cable.
Next, boot up your PS4 in Safe Mode. You do this by holding the power button on your PS4 down for seven seconds or longer – it’ll beep to let you know it’s booting up in Safe Mode.

When you’re presented with a selection of options, go down to number 7 – Initialise PS4 (Reinstall System Software).

The PS4 will then grab the update file from the USB drive and install it on your new hard drive. It only takes a couple of minutes and then you’ll be guided through the initial setup for your PS4, just like you went through when you first got your PS4 out of the box.

Once you’ve been through that, you’ll have to add your PSN account and sign in properly to be able to download all your games and apps.

Don’t panic if you have to go through the setup process again when booting up for the first time after installing your HDD. We had to do it, and after that everything was working properly, regardless of whether we put the PS4 into Rest Mode or turned it off entirely.

Step 6 – Reinstall everything else

Handily, all your previously downloaded stuff is located in your Library at the end of the Recently Used bar of your PS4.

You can go in there and download all your games and apps just by selecting the appropriate icon. We found it a good way to streamline our PS4 a bit, by not re-downloading any games we’d completed or weren’t interested in playing any more.
The only downside to the HDD installation process is that reinstalling all your games – especially digital download versions of AAA beasts – takes an age. You’ll definitely want to download them in order of playing priority.

When reinstalling your game saves from a USB drive, you won’t be able to install any for games you’ve not yet downloaded. It’ll take you quite a while to download all your titles, so you can’t be anxious to move all your save games immediately.

Step 7 – Reap the benefits

It might take ages to get your PS4 back up and running with all your titles, but you’ll now have a lot more space with which to play.

Using our 1TB drives, we doubled the available storage space on our PS4, with 861.4GB available for installing games and other content, once the system had taken up some for software installation.

In terms of performance, because we chose two 5400RPM drives which match specs of the original PS4 internal hard drive, we didn’t notice much of a difference.

You’d have to pay up for a 7200RPM drive if you’re wanting to see some serious performance enhancements.

What we will say is that, thanks to its SSHD hybrid structure, the Seagate Laptop Thin HDD booted up games faster and installed games from disc slightly faster too, in comparison to the WD Blue.

If we had to recommend one, the Seagate has the slight edge in terms of performance. Thanks to it being around the same size as the original HDD, it’s easier to install, too.

PS4 External Hard Drive Support

After over three years of waiting Sony has finally made external HDD support available on PS4. The feature was introduced in a recent firmware update that also brought with it custom image backgrounds and improved notifications across the console.

If you’d rather avoid the fuss of opening up your console, an external hard drive can be attached via USB 3.0 to install games, store saves and more. Drives of up to 8TB in size will be supported, so you shouldn’t be running low on space anytime soon.
