    A bit on the slower side, but a good value for the money. They have reduced the footprint as well making it a bit more portable. Nice.

    I bought this to run a OS on it on a mac, not the fastest read write speeds but good for the price, I had problems with the SATA type so I have given up on those, only the test of time will tell with this.

    Did not work with my laptop, in spite of being told it would by a Best Buy associate. Was disappointed to learn it could not be returned or exchanged, due to company policy limiting the period for returns and exchanges to 15 days. The negative experience has certainly made me feel nervous about making any future purchases from Best Buy.

    This is a nice product. It’s stores most everything that I want and it’s portable and best of all you don’t have to plug it in the wall. It’s just a plug and play.

    Great speedy hard drive for PS5 use

    I purchased this to use with my PS5 to store my PS4 games on. Initially it would not format. After a restart of the system, formatting worked for extended storage use. PS4 games load much faster than my regular hard drive on PS4. I use the front USB-C port on the PS5 to connect.

    Heavy games like Call of Duty or Ark will not be playeable using this device. Other than that it is a perfect choice.
