    @tanookisuit: There was also one for Wired for the initial PS4 release, but earlier than that I have no idea about.

    Anyways, I always like seeing videos like these. Also nice to know how easy it is to change out the hard drive.

    That makes me even more impressed that they manage to keep these things cool enough despite putting the power brick inside the console... The thing is huge! Think about how much more airflow you'd get if it was external. It's hardly surprising Microsoft kept theirs external to be on the safe side this generation.

    It looks like its designed to allow users to remove the top portion to get to the fan without voiding the warranty.
