WD RED

Excellent Price for Storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit is excellent for the price. It is easy to set up and use. Makes a little bit more noise than a portable hard drive and is always on, but a great product overall. Would like to see an standby feature be implemented so it's not running 24 hrs a day.

Great extended storage for PS5
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome hard drive to PS5 extended storage. As of writing this on 12/22/2020 you can’t add to the internal SSD on the PS5 yet, so I purchased this hard drive to store and play literally all of my PS4 games on so I never have to worry about redownloading. I have about 6TB worth of PS4 games on it, and it works great playing games right from this on the PS5.

Plenty of Storage Space. Easy to Install
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is certainly plenty big enough for most applications. And although the larger size means some reduction in seek time, it is adequate for most applications - certainly if using for back-up or archiving. Connecting and installing is simple and easy.

Working as expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a great product to purchase. I've only owned it for a little over a month so far, but I intend to use it as a backup for my main back up drive that has everything on it when I upgrade my OS and have to switch from HFS+ to the new APFS. I've also edited some videos on Premiere with it so far and it's working perfectly well. Only thing so far is that sometimes it gets hung up if you put your computer to sleep with the drive mounted in Mac OS X 10.11.6 right now. I recommended this drive to everyone when I saw it on sale.

Great for storing game console data
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought two of these to use for offloading games from my Playstation & Xbox consoles. Helps to free up space on the game drive and you can actually use it to play the games when you connect to the colsole. They were on sale for a great price & way less than the PS or Xbox branded external drives with less capacity.
