Freeze Ups / Reboots

My PS4 is acting just like a PC would if the hard drive went bad. Sometimes, it boots fine, often it does not. There’s no rhyme or reason to when it freezes up or randomly reboots–but I have totally reinstalled the OS off a USB stick and it still has issues, which tells me it’s a HDD. Does this sound like an HDD to you? If I want to buy a replacement HDD, what should I get? I want to buy it off Amazon and get something cheap–as I don’t plan in having this platform forever.

it could be a hdd issue, also could be a bad connection between APU and motherboard…

What are the most common symptoms that people see when you need to reball an APU?

there are a lot of symptoms caused by APU, but you should start trying with a new hdd…
