    Store your PS4 games externally for your PS5

    I bought this for the PS5 since I dont want to use the internal storage which is already limited (667 GB) to store my PS4 games and still take advantage of the fast loading times if the games were stored internally because the Samsung T5 is a usb 3.2 gen 2 (usb 3.1 gen 2) that you plug into 1 of the 3 Superspeed usb 10gps ports (1 type C port on the front and 2 type A ports on the back of the console).

    Purchase this drive to use as a boot drive for my iMac. I run a small print shop and use the Adobe products extensively, which is always a joy because they load so slow and frequently crash. Installed the latest OS and migrated my iMac drive to the SSD. InDesign, Illustrator.... all load in about 1/4 the time. Rebooting from th drive is very fast. Wondering why I didn’t do this years ago! The Samsung SSD has a very low footprint and works better than expected.
