    I purchase this unit the day before Thanksgiving and I am on my 3rd unit and this one is bad also. Spend your money on a different brand.

    I had to return it. Obviously it's a lot of capacity, but for my purposes attempting to connect to my PS5, it's too bulky and unwieldy and requires being plugged into a separate outlet, as opposed to just being plugged into the console like most smaller hard drives.

    The drive is really selective about the wire it runs at gen 2.0 until i switched the wire. Then it killed that gen 3 usb too. Maybe i just got a bad unit.
