    Purchased this to upgrade my PS4's harddrive. $20 bucks cheaper than the internal hard drive without a case, which makes no sense. Case is easily removed and can store your old PS4 harddrive so you can have a 500gb external.

    I needed something larger than 1TB and it needed to be highly portable with USB 3.0. I'm a long time user of Seagate and when I saw this drive on sale I grabbed it. Works great. Powered from the USB bus. Reasonably fast.

    Not much you can say about an external hard drive other than it seems reliable, is quiet, and doesn't heat up. No problems with it thus far, and this is what I'd expect base on experience with other Seagate drives in the past.
