Will converting from disk to digital keep my saved files?
I've been playing Witcher 3 with the disk version, but want to get the digital version of the game.
Will my saves transfer over after making the switch, or perhaps I will need to do something special in order to have my saves transfer?

Does save data transfer from disc to digital?
Yes, the data is all saved on the PS4 / Storage Device not the disc. All of your data should still be there. Just because the data is saved on your hard drive it doesn't mean that the disc version and the digital version have compatible save files. It varies by game, I have personally ran into this problem.Is it better to have the disk or digital download?
Verdict: I personally concluded that if money isn't the concern, digital download is certainly more convenient for not having to swap discs and allowing the access of your entire library for remote play.Can I switch from disk to digital?
The answer is yes you can \u2013 for a price. Switching from a disc game to digital copy on the PlayStation is pretty easy but sadly it's not just a simple click to upgrade. The bad news is to convert your disc game to a digital game you will need to re-buy the game as a digital version.Can you switch from disc to digital PS4?
Simply put the disc in your PS4, select the option to convert the game into a digital version. The PS4 installs the game onto your HDD, links the game and disc to your PSN account, making the disc only playable if your PSN account is logged in (with the ability to remove the disc authentication for a fee).Saving Digital Files to Film | Long-term Digital File Storage and Other Ways to Save Digital to Film
