Pros & Cons
Pros
Writing a review after two years of owning it. Works great, and was effortless. Creating a return label with seagate was surprisingly painless.
Storage device holds all of my ps4 and ps5 games i play the most. Works smoothly with ps5. Will be using it for my playstation. If you are like me with a large library of ps4 games, because they were cheap/discounted games (especially during 2020-2021... Read More
Once in the game, no lag, no glitches, and no freezing. This is a lifesaver when it comes to my ocd. You don't have to delete games to upload new games.
Cons
Very disappointed in the deception of the product. Questionable at best.

Highlights
Quality
With the limited storage on a ps5 this game drive is a must for gamers!

I was looking at the 6 tb ones and noticed it was only for ps4 and not a certified product.
If possible,locate the product in store instead of waiting.
Price
Great hard drive for the price i paid for

Competitiveness
I was most worried about the reviews that said it wouldn't work for a ps5, but read plenty that said it did.
He love that its 2tb and can hold the majority of his games on the drive.
My bf bought me a wd 2tb gaming drive here on amazon and it's defective!
Do be aware you will not be able to play ps5 games from the drive.
