    These are reliable and reasonably fast external drives that can hold a lot of data. Don’t hesitate to get this especially when it’s on sale.

    It has a white labeled wd red 8tb inside. Used a bypass for the antishuck and it works great. Saved over 100$ for a storage drive

    Using this for my ps4

    Planning on switching to a PS4 pro in a few months. I got this to make sure the process was some enough and all my games would be accessible asap once I transferred my data from one to the other. So far it's been working fine on my normal ps4. I've noticed a difference in load times, them being a little slower but nothing too bad. Pretty much just plug and play. There are tutorials on YouTube on how to set it up for the PlayStation.

    Much Better than Seagate Drive

    This drive is much better than the 8TB Seagate drive I have. For some reason, the Seagate goes into hibernation and has to be removed and reinstalled to work. The WD doe not do this. I've always had better luck with WD drives than Seagate.

    It’s easy to plug the usb in and use this. The only downside is the program preloaded on the drive to use it - I’m not a beginner and it was useless to me - but you can reformat in seconds and move ahead.
