    Pocket sized 5tb! What more could you ask for? This thing is so small, comes with 1 cable and has 1 port which has me a bit nervous, what if it breaks?? Oh well, maybe I can find a case for it?

    I purchased two external drives...2TB and 5TB. Both are extremely nice and easy to use. Just plug and play. I also got the recommended cases for each. I can carry everything needed in each protective case.

    I am using this USB external hard driver as an extended storage device for the Sony's PS4-Pro. The process to install it is very simple, the storage is very reliable, and the data transference seems very stable.

    Bought as an external hard drive for my Xbox One. Games work flawlessly off of this hard drive. I actually think they load faster from this drive than the internal one that came on my xbox

    Amazingly amazing hard drive. Everyone should own one of these. This is the best thing since sliced bread, except it isn’t edible, unless you need to ingest plastic and circuitry.

    Great extra storage, you especially need for the ps5 to put all your ps4 games on it, or else you will run out of space really quick on the ps5. So fast enough not to feel any wait or load time. Great product.

    Great drives and have worked consistently for us for years. We use these for offsite backup. They are quick enough spinning drives and just get the job done. They typically go on sale as well.
