Q: QuestionIs this drive suckable?(6 answers)
A: AnswerDid you mistype? I highly doubt any drive is "suckable". If you mean "stackable" I am not sure, but would encourage some measure of air circulation. Heat is the enemy of most electronics.Answered by CaptainObvious

A: AnswerIt is compatible with Mac. Yes that’s how I use it.Answered by Anonymous
- A: AnswerIt will show all files on the drive. The OS (Windows, Mac, Linux) determines what shows, this is merely a storage device nothing more. Storing duplicates windows will ask if you want to replace the file but only if it has the same name.

Q: QuestionCan it store ps5 games and play ps5 games from the drive(5 answers)
A: AnswerBee: You can store PS5 games onto the drive. To play PS5 games, you need to copy game data from your USB extended storage drive back to your PS5 console's internal SSD storage. It’s much quicker to copy a PS5 game from USB extended storage than to re-download it. Should you have any questions or need assistance using this product, know we are always here to help.

They both have the same security with password protection; support the Samsung Portable SSD Software and Samsung Magician Software and use AES 256-bit hardware encryption.

Incredibly fast + reliable
Such a relief to have this now! It transfers my photo and video work so much faster than my previous HDD drive! I should have made this switch years ago but I'm glad I finally did.
