I've been watching through a series of a guy fixing game consoles with electrical issues ( https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPPvwjMj29nAmcOq0Pn3zHkHxX35xfeGG&si=iZGmINLNDHUQbYEO) and WOW the Xbox Series X/S has some weird issues.

If the SATA connector is bad on the optical drive, updates will fail to install.
Not updates off discs, mind you. Ones downloaded from the internet

Before you continue to YouTube

@foone I have this problem with my ps4. I removed the disk drive because it was causing it to overheat and I didn't want to take the whole thing apart. Then the disk drive got lost somewhere.

Apparently you cannot update a PS4 without a disk drive, so now I cant play Bloodborne online, despite never having used a disk for it.
