Ok so my name is Riley and my ps4 screen froze while I was at the home menu and I couldn't do anything like my ps4 co troller could not control anything and I began to worry so the only thing I could do was to forcefully unplug it and then replug it up and turn it on and when I did it would be in safe mode and would always only go up to 26% in checking storage status and idk why it's doing this. Could it be a bad HDD ? ALL IK IS THAT it was asking for me to plug my usb to my controller and to turn it on by pressing the ps button and then when I did that it went on where it said to cancel or ok by it saying to plug up a usb so all I did was click cancel and then it turned off and then I turned it back on and it did the same thing over and over again like it's some kinda loop and I googled at how to fix this but no one seem to have the same problem besides this person right here. But dude did you figure out at how to fix this and if you did please tell me.
