    It does not work for PS5 games only PS4. This product is compatible with PS5 but only to storage PS4 games, it does not make sense. No good,

    Excellent PS5 External Drive

    I have a launch PS5, and from the beginning, the storage has been limited given how big game files are anymore. Expanded storage with the M2.SDD slot, and I did a great job filling that too. I'm still holding onto some PS4 game data so this drive was a no-brainer. Incredibly easy to format when you plug it in. I have now about 7TB of total space across all the drives. You will read a lot of reviews questioning the compatibility, so here is the one-stop for accurate information. The Seagate is compatible to store PS4 games and PS5 games. I transferred 5 games all at once with my first transfer. It took about an hour, but a couple of those were big COD games. I wasn't too shocked. One game at a time was way quicker. You can play a PS4 game directly from the drive (yes, I tested it). ALL PS5 game data must be transferred back to the console to play those games. It meets all my needs, and I am no longer concerned about needing to delete data.

    Essential Storage Upgrade for PlayStation Gamers

    The Seagate 5TB Game Drive has been a game-changer for my PS5 setup. The plug-and-play functionality made installation effortless, and the sleek white design with blue LED lighting complements my console perfectly. With 5TB of storage, I no longer worry about juggling game installations. While PS5 games need to be transferred back to internal storage to play, the process is swift and beats re-downloading. It's also great for playing PS4 titles directly from the drive. Highly recommend for anyone looking to expand their game library without the hassle.

    This product has been the game changer for me. What makes this hard drive an excellent purchase is the storage capacity. I have quite a few ps4 games as well as ps5 games, and this hard drive holds all of my digital copies with room to store more. The set up was easy, just had to connect the hard drive to the console and format it. The only problem that I had was that I could not play ps5 games directly from the hard drive, I have to install them back to the console.

    It's quiet, compact and enough space for all your games. I store all my ps4 games on it and great for moving Ps5 games around in case your internal starts getting full. Worth the price too!
