    Looking to replace my PS4 HDD, this was the best option. Enter the digital era and download games with no worries or give you PC a bump.

    I gave this to my nephew as a gift for a college course he is taking. So far I have heard nothing but good things about it from him. He is using it for a film class he is taking.

    It looks nice and good build quality. I didn't have time do some better tests, but it appears to be working fast. I'm planning to use it as a backup disk, so I don't need extreme speed.

    i bought this because i wanted to put a larger hard drive in my PS4, and saw some youtube videos that recommended this external drive. the drive inside of the external casing is exactly the same as an 2.5" inch internal drive that you could buy, but it's usually cheaper to buy this one. it's super easy to pop open the casing and take the HDD out; then you just install in the PS4 as you would any other internal HDD.

    I didn't use the hard drive as an external. I took this hard drive out of it's casing and installed it into my PS4. If your careful you can preserve the casing and use the hard drive from your PS4 as an extra external. It works great!

    This product was very easy to use. I like it because you can either use it like a huge flash drive...or set up a backup system for your home computer through the software included.

    When I purchased these, the latest PS4 software update hadn't been released yet, so I bought them in order to remove the HDD from the external enclosure and replace the factory PS4 HDD. It was extremely simple to do, and I was able to place the original PS4 HDD in the enclosure to have a 500GB external drive. Now that the software update has been released, I can use that 500GB external drive with my PS4

    Very sober little drive. Half the height.of my 2TB WD Passport. Lightweight, metal case. Comes with 18" USB 3.0 cable. Good data rate at 45 MBps. Haven't tried their backup software.

    I wanted a small, high-capacity USB 3 drive in a sturdy case and this does exactly that. So far it has worked fine for transporting a lot of data and I have no issues with it.
