    Great device for my PS5 and at just the right HD size and price to hold all of my games. I was surprised at how small the HD was too as it fits right behind my PS5 without being seen.

    Needed more space for my gaming PC because 1TB was not enough. I was contemplating on buying this hard drives since it was 5TB and I was wondering if I needed that much in the first place. I'm so glad I bought this. It was on sale during cyber Monday and and it was a deal I couldn't pass up. Do not regret my purchase. Just plug it in and start downloading to your external drive. So far, everything is great. If you want to use this got a gaming PC, don't hesitate to purchase it, it's well worth it.

    I like WD external hard drive. It is reliable and works fine. The transfer speed is acceptable and the operating noise is also good. I recommend it for daily storage.
