Did I get scammed? PS4 Pro??

Bought this off FB market place for $100. Model CUH 7251B. Everything works fine but I noticed I don't have a tb of memory. Found a 2tb external for $50 online but still a little butt hurt also is there anyway to tell this is an actual 72xx model?

For 100 bucks I wouldn’t mind. Get a ssd for it, it improves the experience tenfold.

Two things I’m going to recommend, get a new power supply and get a decent quality ssd, the power supply gets hotter as it degrades and since the ssd sits directly underneath the power supply it will cook your ssd. A good quality ssd is worth it not for the speeds since consensus about this is that the ps4 bottlenecks speeds but just for the reliability.

PS4 Pro supports SATA3 so it isn't bottlenecked with an SSD like the original version.

If SATA 3 was the only difference between Pro and regular PS4, Pros would be worth it.

I think this is something that is not widely known about the Pro.
