Hi everyone, Issue: My original PS4 isn't working. When I try to turn it on, the blue light comes on for a second and then it immediately turns off. Objective: I need to recover my game save data from the PS4 hard drive and transfer it to my PS5. What I've Tried: Removed the PS4 hard drive and connected it to my PC using a hard drive enclosure. Used EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard and Disk Drill, but had issues with both (only finding PC files, not PS4 files). Current Status: The PS4 hard drive shows as "not partitioned" in Disk Drill. I cannot locate any PS4 save data files, only generic system files from the scan. Help Needed: Advice on correctly recovering PS4 save data from the hard drive. Recommendations for other software/tools that might work. Any other suggestions or steps I might have missed. Additional Info: I have a PS5 and a hard drive enclosure. If there are any methods that involve using the PS5, I'm open to that too.
