On a Playstation 4, if you suspend a game (either by going into Rest Mode or by starting up another service such as Netflix), what happens if you eject the disk?

Will the game remain suspended (such that if you insert the disk you may resume the game once again as if nothing happened) or will it be closed (as when the disk is ejected during play)?

If the game remains suspended, what then happens if you enter a new disk (perhaps on another user)? Can you play that other game and then resume the suspended game later?

I assume the game is closed upon disk ejection, but would like confirmation.

The game will close and you will lose any and all unsaved progress without any kind of warning or means of prevention.

I ran 2 tests (using Danganronpa V3):

1. Launched the game, waited until I got past the intro movies, suspended the game by going back to the home screen, removed the disk, and tried to return to the game.
   
   
   The PS4 wouldn't let me resume unless I put the disk back in. After re-inserting the disk, the game launched as if it had been closed; I had to sit through the intro movies once more.
   
   
   
   


2. Launched the game, loaded a previous save (to be safe), removed the disk with the game still running in the foreground.
   
   
   The PS4 immediately returned to the home screen. After re-inserting the disk and trying to resume the game, I realized the game had been closed yet again.

Basically, ejecting the disk of a running game will immediately close the game without any kind of warning.

  Random bit of trivia: I was surprised when I found out. I had already tested something similar on a Wii U. The Wii U will automatically suspend the running game and demand the disk to be re-inserted, with an option to close the game instead. This is what I get for assuming that whatever Nintendo implements, has to be natural for any other console.

  This was going to be my answer as well, but this question reminded me of something that happened a few months ago. My PS4 was in rest mode, and I accidentally pressed the eject button instead of the power button. I quickly inserted the disk back before the PS4 fully booted up, and it continued where it left off. It may have been a fluke, but interesting nonetheless
