What it means
NP-103019-4 is an application error. Sony handles it in three levels: close and reopen the app, restart the PS5 and, if that is not enough, delete the app and reinstall it. This separates a one off runtime glitch, a temporary console state and a damaged installation. The code concerns that app and does not show that storage or any other console part is faulty.
