    Just what I needed for my Ps5. 1TB of memory has taken care of my console memory problems. I like that is external so I don’t have to take anything off.

    I needed more storage on my Xbox one s and this drive is amazing. Speeds are decent and I can’t tell a difference from what’s being played from this drive vs internal. Sale price was even better. Awesome ssd

    Really fast for an external ssd. actually does about 1.3Gbps read and write but still leagues ahead of the competition. Super compact and light so it works great for traveling.

    I have a ASUS - ROG Zephyrus 14" FHD 144Hz Gaming Laptop - AMD Ryzen 7 - 16GB DDR4 Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 - 512GB PCIe SSD and I just got into PC gaming (specifically for horror games) but when I'm traveling hey I like my COD and I just play on my series X so I got this just in case because I didn't want to do the ridiculous Warzone & Coldwar installation and this is fantastic. I highly recommend.

    Bought this for a few games i play regularly that i want fast load times and this thing DELIVERS!!!! super fast, load screens are almoat non existent. The speeds are true to form as marked on the box. I even transferred over 100gigs in about 15mins. Actually near the end of the upload there were files that wouldnt transfer and it was promoting me to click yes or no so im not really sure how fast it actually transfered, but its lighting fast. RGB works but its of no value or concern for me.
