One day I came home from work eager to get on my Ps4 Pro. I got home, turned it on and nothing. So I pressed it again....

You have a number of things to consider if sony isn't just sending you a bunch of bad, used or refurbished consoles. Insects getting inside, Moisture, dust, faulty motherboard, bad PSU or even a broken solder joint on the APU. (Occurs from extensive hours of gameplay with improper ventilation) My best advice to you is to do the following. Purchase both a cooling stand and a dust cover. This would solve the issue of your Ps4 Pro overheating and/or dust getting inside. I myself am also taking the liberty to purchase a protective sticker to protect my ps4 from physcal damage like scratches and dents. Though, For sure, I'm going to sell my current one for a replacement since I'm currently having a problem with the disk drive and no way in !&&* am i going to spend $123.00 dollars on a brand new one. Disclaimer: Do not use the dust cover while the ps4 is powered on or in standby mode. Even though it is in standby mode, It still generates heat. Very little but nonetheless, enough to overheat the ps4 over time.

I can confirm that dirt on the board can cause this problem along with a Bad power supply, Bad Motherboard and a Broken Solder Ball on the APU. I've had a similar situation that I recently fixed where a lizard went into the electrical socket that my ps4 was plugged in and fried my power supply. For 2 months I was searching for answer frantically and sceptically and finally decided to fix it. My advice is to purchase a dust cover. When not in use. Use it to cover the ps4 to prevent moisture and dust from getting inside.

I’m currently trying to find a replacement Optical Drive for my Ps4 Pro myself. Apparently, This is really hard to find. Managed to find a used one but the price to me seems a bit high at $123.
