Customer Ratings & Reviews

This product is amazing for those who have a need for gaming storage.

Some people might be turned off by the noise, but I kind of like it. Lets me know the drive is working. Helpful when you think your system might have had a soft crash. The USB ports on the back can power small devices even when the drive is not in use, as long as the power supply stays connected. Speaking of which, the AC adapter for this drive is huge, that would be the only con in my book.

Good design and feel. Easy setup no matter what device you use it with. PROS: WD Black edition. Easy of setup. USB charging ports. CONS: Price, No turn off switch and will burn out control board if left plugged in without use with a computer or game console.

Fast read/write operation and easy to use. Plug it in and use it.

This is a great product, and the service was fantastic!

im very pleased with with this external drive. I like the size and 3.2 USB. Plus bb did a price match. The drive is for game storage which have gotten massive. It was truly ugly and play

Seems fast enough for photo / video backup. I wouldn't run it off of it. If you use it for what it is there's no reason to get an SSD. It really didn't take that long to transfer almost a TB of data over for backup. Time will tell if it holds up.

Got it to store all my digital PS4 games to play on my PS5 Pro. I’ve downloaded a little under 100 games so far with no issues and still have about 6TB of storage left.

Shipping & Handling: Package was delivered the next day and quality packaging kept item in perfect condition. Product: Does exactly what I need it to. Hold data for game titles I have beaten, but a quick transfer back to the ps5 if I want to replay them. With 8 Tb, I doubt I’ll ever run out of storage.

Been buying him 1tb or 2tb and he always still needs more but when I got him the Xbox Halo Infinite Console for Christmas which I couldn’t get here because it was a complete reck how they went about it.. then changed it to in store only and went there but I know they open at 10 so was there but sold out because they opened at 7 and handed out vouchers or coupons the day before I don’t want to get started about that again!!!! But this is great for my grandson!! And he loves it!! And as you can see I buy stuff there for my grandson and daughter!!

Picked up this hard drive for my Xbox One for some much needed storage. Easy to set up. Plug in, format and you're good to go! Transferred my data to this in no time flat!

Perfect for storing all my Unity projects and very large files and games. Freed up so much storage across all my drives

This SSD has a ton of storage, easy to use and install

This external hard drive was easy to install (plug in and it worked) and is extremely fast. I ended up returning as it runs very hot and having a fan on the drive didn't help. It may be made to handle this heat (idles around 59 celsius), but I didn't trust it.

Works with Xbox as described. Has large capacity and fast file transfer.

I love this external HD. It was a simple setup and provides a great back to Microsoft one drive. 8TB was perfect since I have a lot of large files.

Very happy with the performance of this hard drive, it makes games load faster than the internal hard drive built into the xbox one x. the only complaint i have is that it can be a bit noisy when installing things to do it but it has quieted down

Game Review It does what I want. Which is: Holds all my PS5 and PS4 games. PS5 games cannot be played off of External Hard Drives just FYI. This thing moves data very quickly and makes load times a bit faster than a smaller silent "game drive" if playing PS4 games directly off the drive. As far as noise levels, it can vary... sometimes it just hums (buzzes) while the PS5 is just sitting in rest mode. When moving a 50GB file, it clacks and clunks and makes the sounds. When in constant use playing a PS4 game, it hums sightly and clunks here and there, mostly on reloads or fast travels or something. The noise is the reason for the 4 out of 5, but it's not a deal breaker by any means. Would buy again, recommend.

Great product tons of storage, it was very easy to set up basically plug and go and push a couple buttons

Bought this for my ps4. It works and downloads pretty fast. It is a bit noisy but doesn't really bother me while playing. Felt it was the best 8tb option available for ps4 at the sale price of $189.
