    I love this. I use it with my Playstation "Classic" Console and have Jailbroken it to hold over 500 Original Playstation games on this hard drive. Only thing is, If you use for this specific purpose you will need to use a Powered USB Hub with it. Great little drive, I may buy a second one just for storage for my Laptop to carry around in a small package.

    So far the drive is working well after it was partitioned. Only gave 4 stars because I only received a USB-C to USB-A cable, but it is advertised as including both a USB-C to USB-C and a USB-C to USB-A cable

    This drive is fast. I'm able to run virtual machines directly in the drive, makes a portable lab much easier. The performance is on par with an internal ssd. Would buy again. Getting the GS certified version was perfect, save some money and get a sweet drive.

    This SSD meets my needs! I use it daily and it’s trucking right along. The only issue is that when I bought it I got a refurbished one and had to reformat to get my laptop to recognize it

    I bought this refurbished. Works out of the box after partitioning. Great investment and incredibly fast. I've ran memory intensive applications off this portable SSD between computers with no problem.

    If you want to add some external storage to your Xbox or ps4, then this is a great option. Way faster than the crappy HDD.

    I got it for thirty dollars less and it works perfectly, you do have to activate it in a computer and format but that's about it, worth my bucks!
