- Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, by choosing a region as in the official URL

Notes[edit | edit source]
- ↑ PUP files on PS4 discs are 1GB (1073741824, 0x40000000 bytes), regardless of version, as they are zerofilled at the end of the file, just like PS3 PUP were zerofilled to 256MB. Hence, their hash will differ from the sys PS4UPDATE.PUP file they are based on.
