Has been working well for me! Using it as external storage for my PS5 and I've been able to move the majority of my library to the external drive (note I do have a decent collection of games). It loads up games very quickly, to the point where I forget that my games are loading from the drive and not my PS5 itself!

Probably the Best external ssd ever created!!! I use this drive on my ps5, the wd p50 replaced my Samsung t5 on ps5 and the results are incredible!!! My ps4 games load so fast that seeing a loading screen has almost become a thing of the past. I highly HIGHLY recommend this drive to any gamer out there.

Holds PS4 games on PS5 but game requires disc

Very fast but unfortunately it only worked on the PS5 for the old PS4 games that you load. PS5 transfers the PS4 game disc to the drive. However, you cannot transfer PS5 disks and when you play the PS4 game you still must insert the disk.

This Solid State external storage device is great! Being Solid State, it works faster and better. I know it says it is a Game item, but I use mine for other things. It is a good backup.

The item works as it says. The load times are better on the Xbox One S. The only issue is when I turn my Xbox One S back on it does not recognize the drive. I have to unplug and plug it back in. Then the system recognizes the drive.

Great when Xbox and the ssd stay connected on Xbox one. If yours disconnects try switching from the back plugs to the side. Lots of luck. This is working for me for now. I’ll keep you posted. Thanks

This thing here is amazing. The transfer of games to the internal ssd is quick. Im always wanting to play different games, i love having them in a quicker time than downloading them.

A great SSD for my PS5 needed something that was at least half as fast as the PS5 internal one so it definitely is snappy and reliable! Works fine as is straight out of the box!

It’s a decent drive. Bought it primarily for its build quality, since my dog chewed my plastic SanDisk Extreme.
Pro’s:
-Rigid Metal Construction
-Type-C Connection
-Cyberpunk Theme (if that’s your thing)
Con’s:
-Get hot, even at idle
-Not waterproof
-Not Thunderbolt

Very good product.
I'm using it with my Play5 as an additional storage disk.
I will replace as soon as Play is updated to M.2 memory.
