hi guys, so recently i bought a new ps4 because my old one broke down but i held into it and my old harddrive. when i got the new one it had an old firmware so i checked if i can jailbreak it and i did with 9.00. i decided to keep the new hardware jailbroken and the old one just normal so i can do things normally on the ps4. after i jalbroke the new hardware i plugged the old one to play my old already existing games and later on i tried to plug my jailbroken hardware and start my ps4 but it put me into safe mode and said ,, cannot start the ps4... connect a usb storage that contains an update file for reinstallation for version 9.51 or later. you can download the update file for reinstallation from playstation.com,,. so now i cant start the jailbroken without updating it and i would lose the jailbreak and i wont be able to jailbreak again. is there any sulotion to starting the ps4 with the jailbroken harddrive without updating it? pls i need help as fast as possible
 
Crucial firmware data is not written on HDD but on flash memory. It is not PC that operating system is independent from let's say UEFI and installed fully on mass memory. The same with PS3, PS5, XBO and XS.

Besides that, each internal HDD is encrypted by EAP key, different in each motherboard, so HDD from one PS4, even on the same fw, is empty for another PS4. The same with ERK (from which came from ATA & VFLASH keys) on PS3 and probably PS5.
