    Great drive, fast write speed for creating backups from a desktop or a laptop. It also has good amount of space for long term storage needs. The pictures look better than the actually product. It's plastic...not metal...bit disappointing there but the hard drive itself is top notch. This is more than likely the end line of hard drive tech...all the money and energy is going towards SSD.

    Love the hard drive so much space I’m downloading games for no reason only thing I have to say is when my Xbox is off the hard drive stays on and you can get the fan going on and off but that’s not really an issue just letting you know

    I’ve never personally used Western Digital products before but after owning this hard drive I can definitely say I will be purchasing more Western Digital products. The performance on the hard drive is absolutely perfect.

    This thing is fast it is faster then hard drives I have inside my computer and it is cheaper than a WD_Black hard drive which is insane. I own USB hard drive enclosure and thing is a better value. You can format it how ever you want and do not need any software to use it.

    Great for media storage. Fast speeds. If the hard drive sleep mode aggravates you, just turn off sleep access on your computer.

    A little noisey sometimes, but that doesnt bother me, for I found the noise soothing. Just make sure to reformat before use if using mac.

    Drive works as it should and is has a sturdy exterior. Stand is a bit flimsy, wouldn't recommend using it on some surfaces. Speeds are pretty slow when allocating disk space. No problem noticed loading games, which the main purpose of this drive is used for. In all, great value for a game drive with a lot of space. Good alternative to an internal hdd that would be 7200rpm anyway.

    GREAT Hard Drive !!! Have it for storing and playing games from, hooked up to an Xbox One X. Looks Great. Has an Internal Fan. Has Faster Load Times. Tons of Space. + Was a Great Price. FYI....you can set it up to turn off when you power off your system. Some have said it runs 24/7. Not necessarily true. Also...there is no difference in this one compared to the more expensive, Xbox branded version. I Love it. Glad I bought it. Great investment

    I bought this for my bf's PS5. Since then, he's bought and played so many games, and has yet to ask for another storage drive. Excellent product and at a great price!

    I was kind of disappointed when I realized it didn't play PS5 games from the hard drive but it plays the PS4 version and I got the PS plus so I get a lot of free games to store.

    If you don't have enough room on hard drive to play your favorite PlayStation 4 and 5, then this is the perfect hard drive made gaming, and with 8TB, you have all the storage you ever wanted to keep your favorite video PS4 game and play them on your PS5.

    Must have for PS5

    Bought for PS4 storage on an PS5. This is an absolute must have as the storage space in the PS5 is pathetic especially with PS5 games taking about 16-20% of the available disk space in a PS5. Speeds are great (not as fast as SSD obviously) and it is quiet.
