    Bought this to install in my PS4 since the internal hard drive was filled to the max. Plugged it in. Formatted the drive with the PS4. Then set as primary. Moved all my games over. I don’t see a change in performance or load times. Actually seems faster than the internal stock had by a little. Been using for a month now with no issues.

    Bought this drive on sale, to use as a Time Machine Backup. I did have to make some modifications to it to better suit my new Mac Book Pro. Formatted Extended (journaled), Apple USB to USB-C adaptor and this drive has worked great so far.

    Fast, big and quiet. The cable is about 189 inches long which makes it good for desktops and consoles also. I have bought some with 8 inches cables and it makes it difficult to reach when attached to desktops. I use it to expand a PS5 and is fast enough to supply data. Thick enough to stand as is in the photo.

    Bought this as my main external backup drive and so far it's been a godsend as I work with large video and graphic files. Not terribly fast if plugged into a USB 2.0 port, although it's compatible (that's all I had on my older machine, but when plugged into my new machine with majority 3.0 ports, file transfer speed exceeded my expectations. Easy plug and play and a small footprint. Have already unplugged from my desktop and taken it with me, attached it to my laptop, and was back to work in a temporary location with no problems.
