Look at the comments. Didn't take long for someone to whine about name changes.

That's the one feature I'll genuinely be surprised at if it ever got added.

This wasn't mentioned in the blog, but there will be a "boost" mode on Pro so when you play games that haven't been patched wit a pro mode it will increase the FPS count.

No date. The blog says this is just now being released to the BETA group so I would imagine at least a month out.

Good update. I personally prefer upgrading the internal storage than using an external hard drive, but I'm glad that they added this feature. As others may prefer to have an external Hard Drive or need more than 2TB of storage. Good update.

Regarding the external HDD support, would there be any lag when playing a game stored on it?

Shouldn't be. Sometimes on the Xbox you have to wait a second or two for the drive to spin up coming out of rest mode but once you're playing it's fine.

Shouldn't aught to be, it has to be at least USB 3.0 if I read the blog post correctly) so bear in mind the PS4s SATA II drive speed is 3Gbit/s where as USB 3.0 can reach up to 5Gbit/s.

I still have half my 2TB free so I cant imagine needing to take advantage of this any time soon. Still great news. If space were an issue, Id keep actively playing games on my internal and leave the external for demos, betas and backlog. Pretty much have it as a backup so its not plugged in all the time
