Can someone please help me my ps4 say "Connect a USB storage device that contains an update file for reinstallation for version 8.01. ?

Answer 1

I think he's right.

Apparently the USB drive needs to be in the FAT32 format, but drives from Walmart and Best Buy are usually in that format already, at least as far as I can tell.

Answer 2

See this link.  The reinstallation file is the second download with directions on how to use it below it.
