The mechanical hard drives in the previous generation of consoles maxed out at a read and write speed of roughly 100MB/s, resulting in some fairly lengthy initial load times, but fast enough for streaming worlds like The Witcher 3. ![]() When playing previous-generation games, you’ll see a pretty marked improvement in drive speed.
