So... PS4 modding. Is it still mainly 9xx models. Is there any way to mod a newer FW?

I'm asking because a couple of online stores have new PS4 slim consoles back in stock, and I assume they wont be the latest FW, but I don't know. Also they are a bit pricey at £260 with no games. But at least it would be new. I could pick up a PS5 with GoW for £500.

Edit:
PS5 Disc version with GoW: £500
PS5 Digital version with GoW: £450

PS5 limited exploit (of no use for piracy really):

Yes, for PS4 new consoles aren't going to be able to be exploited unless they are old stock with <9.00fw.

9.00 exploit is stable - I have a Pro with this, it's usb exploit (but there are some other options iirc).
5.05 exploit is stable - I have launch fat with this, it's the easiest exploit to use (but you need games to be backported).

Anything in-between is kinda pointless stability wise, so if you're above 5.05 you need to upgrade to 9.00 first then exploit.

The Pro I got cheap with a controller last year, used prices have gone up for those now though (over here).

Sustained writes <30MB/s on a scratch HDD .

Best it manages is maybe 30 - 35 on a large (4GB+) file. At least it was cheap (cost of shipping for a few random drives) and I don't need much speed out of it .

HDD should be cheaper per TB but BDs should make a decent long term backup if they're stored right.

Well when a good sale goes on for a 10TB HDD or so, I'll probably pick one up.

[Slacker Magician]

Externals usually get the best sales.

You'll have to poke around reddit or other large forums to see which drives can be ripped out of the enclosure ('shucking') for internal use if that's what you want.

I assume eventually there'll be another exploit though. Cause games that were over 9.00 have been dumped, and to be dumped a game needs to be run on an exploited system, right? So I assume there's a non-public exploit some dumpers are using, and maybe it sucks to use, who knows. But maybe when there's nothing left to lose another exploit might drop. So I don't think it'd be a terrible idea to closet a brand new system for possible use in 10-20 years, but not for purchase/use now.

Well when I have my PC connected via wireless, the DHCP lease is only an hour. It usually disconnects after a hour. I've looked at my modem settings and it seems fine. Bridging my connection by ethernet works, but at the cost of a slight bottleneck.

It should automatically renew. Unless you need it to be wireless you're better off with a wired connection.

Provided it doesn't have any design flaws .
