    Use for PS4/PS5

    Bought during a sale to use for my PS5. Extremely easy, just plug it into the port and the PlayStation takes care of everything and even asks if you want to move installed PS4 games over to the drive. Additional bonus for some, it can be moved between PS5 and PS4 seamlessly to play eligible games on either system. Note that it can be used to store PS5 games, but to play them you would need to transfer them to internal memory.

    I purchased this external hard drive to add/expand the storage to my PlayStation 4. Once you go through the PlayStation settings to get the PlayStation to recognize the hard drive, everything else is super simple. I transferred almost all of my downloaded games and game saves from off the PS4 to onto the hard drive. It could be me but it does seem that the PS4 loads faster now. Depending on how many games you are planning on having on your playstaion, this 2TB will be more than enough to keep you happy for awhile. This expanded my memory to a total of 2.5 TB.

    Good solid portable hard drive. Nothing exotic about it, but it holds a lot of data for a reasonable price. Runs cool and quiet, and you can download a free copy of Acronis True Image (WD Edition) to use with it for disk imaging and backup. I prefer getting a download of commercial software like Acronis versus a proprietary software package from the hard drive manufacturer. Got this drive for a very good price over Black Friday; wish I had bought several!

    This will be my 3rd WD easystore drive and I've been very pleased with their performance. Doesn't require a seperate power supply if you attach to a USB 3 port, which makes it great for my Xbox One. I actually have two connected to the Xbox and one now connected to my Surface Pro for additional storage space. Quiet and small; don't even pay attention to it in the office. Cannot comment on other features such as backup as I don't use the drive in that way.

    Second puchase for this one. I bought this originally years ago and Best Buy still has these listed for the same price even after massive inflation. I have 1 running my home built arcade system and it runs all the thousands of games I have on there smoothly.

    The WD Easystore works well and does what it's supposed to do. Good buy for the money. Packing material n the shipping carton was completely inadequate. The small retail box was placed inside a much larger shipping box with no packing material, so the retail box rattled around inside shipping box during shipment. This kind of contact could affect the service life of the product.
