Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the Game Drive's ample storage, ease of use, and compact size as major advantages, with many appreciating the LED lighting and reasonable price. However, some customers have expressed disappointment regarding compatibility, as it does not support direct play or storage of PS5 games.

    Its works good for the PlayStation 4 however it does not allow for the running of game on the PS5 you have to reinstalled any previously saved game before being able to play them on the PS5

    Ideal storage to free up space on the internal drive. Can’t play games off of the external drive but the transfer rate to the internal storage is pretty quick.

    This is a great price but I wish I would’ve bought an internal storage instead. I didn’t realize that we would have to transfer games back and forth between this drive and our PS5. I wouldn’t have bought it if I had known that.

    A waste of money. Do not purchase. I don’t know how these other people allegedly got theirs to work. But my 5TB does not work for my playstation 5. Does not allow me to install PS5 games on it. No matter how i plug it into the system. And I fully anticipate when i attempt to return it tomorrow for them to give me only store credit when I bought it in cash and I will be upset! If I could give less than 1 star I would. This was a terrible purchase. I am so mad especially because the box says it is compatible.

    Product is not 3.2 Gen it is only 3.0 Gen! Don't be fooled-Not worth the price and you can't play ps5 games off the drive -you have to install on your ps5 in order to play. You can only play ps4 games off of it. This drive is only used for storing games not photos or videos or saved data-use a different external for this-all in all do not buy! Straight rip off!!

    Although it is faster to transfer games rather than downloading them. I'd rather play them immediately rather than having to transfer them.

    My mom bought this to upgrade her PS5 storage, because, as I'm sure you all know, COD takes up a ton of storage space, she literally can only have COD and like one other game downloaded at a time, so we thought this would work, unfortunately what we didn't know was that if you want to actually play the games that are installed on this device, you're out of luck, it seems you xan only play PS4 games on here, while PS5 games need to be installed on the console itself, which kinda defeats the purpose of the product, so we immediately returned this item
