    I got this for my PS4 Pro. It was easy to hook up and set up. The PS formatted it in less than 30 seconds. Transferring games and save data was simple but took a little time.

    Great if you have a 500GB PS4 and are tired of erasing and downloading the 8TB external cleared all that up and no longer have to erase a single game.

    Been using this for my PS5 and have had no problems thus far. It's been about 10 months and its going strong with no issues. There's been a few power failures in the house and yet this thing still keeps kicking and not losing all its memory files. So due to that alone I'm giving it a 5 star. When playing PS4 games off of it on the PS5 I don't experience any delays or weird bugs at all. Overall it gets the job done and leaves you plenty of space to work with at an excellent price!

    I bought this external hard drive on Black Friday when it was on sale and it was a tremendous amount of storage space for the money I paid for it. Always back-up your stuff, people!

    I added this specifically for my Xbox One X because of the space requirements on 4K games. This game me plenty of space and works great. I have had a couple of times in which the xbox doesnt recognize it on initial start up but a simple unplug and replug or restart of the console fixes that

    I just moved from 2 4TB to 2 8TB drives for my business workhorse and backup drives. These are easy to set up and use, and the WD tech support is good. They are working flawlessly.

    It was nice and spacious. A fine backup. Unfortunately, it cannot handle even small falls onto carpeted surfaces without going bust. That's kind of the nature of the beast when it comes to hard drives, but it's always sad when it happens. Keep a backup of your backup to be safe.
