I missed the era of games consoles having inbuilt drive, stayed with my trusted PS2.
but from what I remember, PS's are formatted funny.
if you don't care what's on the drive, why not format it and see if that helps.
a Quick Format should do the trick because if it needs a low level format, a 2TB drive will literally take days.
of course, being flogged constantly while it was in the PS4, it may simply be at its end of life.

Hello.
I have already formatted it.
I don’t really know if I have done it right, I just saw a YouTube video.
so you went into File Explorer, right clicked on that PS4 drive, and clicked Format... then ticked Quick Format and change the File System to NTFS ?
another way, go to Control Panel, Admin Tools, Computer Management, Disk Management, right click the drive under the Volume column and choose Format. You may want to remove all partitions first, by going down into the graphical area and right clicking each partition and choosing Delete Volume.
