    I needed a way to expand the current storage for my 500GB PS4. I did my research and found a lot of external hard drives, but this one had the best quality rating and an excellent price. The transfer rate on the PS4 is excellent. I have run games right off this drive and noticed zero lag in load time or gameplay. The transfer speed was high and took just over 20 minutes to move about two hundred gig. I would recommend this drive to anyone wanting more storage on their PlayStation 4.

    So far, so good! Easy plug-n-play operation. Not lightning fast, but for the money, an excellent back-up or extra storage option.

    My Xbox One was low on storage and this was on sale so I jumped at it. In fact, I bought two because I wanted to be able to backup an older laptop. For the Xbox this was plug, follow instructions, and play. For the computers it has simply been plug and play. I have used it on multiple computers and I am nowhere near filling it up. If I saw it for the same price again I would buy another to create a network drive.

    I have used this external hard drive for my Xbox one X. It’s been perfect. I transferred all my data from my Day 1 Xbox into the hard drive and plugged it into the new system. Works exactly like I hoped.

    Plugged it into my Xbox, formatted it, done. Quick and easy. Using it to migrate all my games from the internal HDD in preparation for migrating to the One X. It just quietly sits there and does it's job.
