    I love these HDDs. They just got to be formatted before use for PS4 and PS5 systems. I have more than 4 if that lets you know how much I prefer this over other brands.

    It's very fast, and works well in general.. however it seems to disconnect itself or "fall asleep" semi-frequently and will no open folders, without me unplugging it and plugging it back in. Feels like it's trying to crash on me two months in.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
