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.

    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.

    I would recommend this product, I did however make a mistake when buying it, I should have done some research because I didnt realize that you couldn't play games off of it on my PlayStation, but it's a nice hard drive for transferring games between the console and external storage, I've got a good amount of games and don't think I've even filled half of the 5tb on it

    This doesn’t really work for a PS five if you want this product, you should probably use it for a PS4 only it kind of works for the PS five but you can only play PS4 games on it. Other than that it’s really well priced and it has a lot of storage.

    Great for those gamers that need the extra space for that ps5. The only thing is that once you put games in the external hard drive you have to re-download them back into the system when you want to play them again

    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!

    Awesome for adding storage to your PlayStation. Now days because you have to download every game. You will eventually need something like this.

    This is a must if you have the PS4. Tons of memory and you can play the games right from the Hard Drive. So far, I have about 22 games stored in it with plenty of space for more. So far, so good.

    This hard drive is definitely good for storing ps4 games to free up space. The only downside to me is that PS5 games when moved still takes a while to transfer them back and forth but other than that, very good hard drive with a lot of space.

    This is perfect. I got ps4 game from ps4 days and downloaded it all into this hard drive. Best thing, you can play the ps4 games straight from the hard drive. The only con is you can't play ps5 games from it. You have to download it into the console hard drive to play it.

    PlayStation External Hard Drive - Do it, Buy It

    Best Buy online order and pick up in store was a breeze. Super easy set up and use of the external hard drive for our PS5. HIGHLY recommend getting yourself one to avoid having to delete and reinstall games. We moved some PS5 games from the main system hard drive to the external in a matter of minutes. You can still play games while they're saved on the external hard drive without having to move them back over to the main hard drive. Wished I would have purchased this months ago!

    Very good size, does not attract attention and matches the classic Ps5 very well. I do not know if it is my own lack of technical knowledge, but it seems that I can only pay Ps4 games off this hard drive. I could be missing a setting that will allow me to play Ps5 games, as it requires me to copy the download over to my ps5 hard drive. Considering most things have a Ps4 version, I am not too bothered by this personally as I have over 50 games on it and still have a 1.99 TB left.
