Writing a review after two years of owning it.Bought this external storage device two months after owning my PS4 so I was able to play my large capacity games like GTA, COD, RDD, etc. It worked great! never had an issue with it making my PS4 slow or loading games too slow. I literally used this by letting it stay plugged in to my PS4, so if my PS4 was turned on, my external storage device was on and running. Now, I hardly used my PS4 compared to most people. Maybe played it here and there, but not an everyday thing. For awhile we did use our PS4 for DVDs, Streaming movies, TV, etc, so it was on for quite some time during 2020-2021.Most of 2022 it worked great as well until - it didn't.Around August we started noticing this strange beating or clicking noise coming from it when the PS4 was on. At first we thought it was the PS4 but realized it was the hard drive. Then our games that were stored on the hard drive weren't able to load. When we went to SETTINGS to view the Storage it was not showing up.We would have to wait a few minutes for the PS4 to read the device, then we would get a message in the left hand corner saying External Storage not supported by PS4. We would go to the Settings to Devices to try to see the device, it would tell us it's not formatted, but would show that device had 144,115.2 TB capacity. Because of this it wouldn't allow us to format it. Now I am not sure why it broke after 2 years. Not sure if its cause we never unplugged it, or the fact that it only is made to last so long (heard this company doesn't make great Hard Drives based off a Reddit - PS4 thread) Or if it was the fact my 11 month old daughter got a hold of it, possibly unplugged it while PS4 was on or maybe slammed it on the ground. What ever the case, I'm not stressed because I am not an avid gamer and do not mind replaying all my games.I wanted to post this review due to the fact I haven't seen many people talk about this issue. I could see how this could frustrate people who actually care about their progress being deleted or broken after all that time.Please let me know if my review is helpful to you.So I will say any external hard drive I use is Seagate they are wonderful streamline and easy to use. I've never had to transfer from hard drive to device to use anything I download I mostly use them for as it says my PlayStation but I have other ones for my laptop and computer. this one will be mostly an external to download your games onto not your screenshots and the like. Do not get an Amazon referbished one.... Buy these new well worth it ?I bought this for my PS4 (dec '21), and have kept all of my games on it. I only had one issue setting it up and that was the fact I did NOT plug it in FAST enough. I couldn't figure out why it was not being read by my PS4 and looked online, turns out that was the issue.I have since got a PS5 and it's plug and play. All of my PS4 games were on there, I was able to access them and play them immediately. Although the game save data was saved directly to the PS4, so I did have to transfer that to the external HD (or upload to cloud and access from there) to be able to resume any games from my save points.All in all, worth the buy, love having the extra space for plenty of games!yes everything works fine a lot of space and no issuesGood deal. I’m not actually using this for PS but just a local storage. Good price for an external drive.Muy compacto, totalmente silencioso y con un acabado de muy buena calidad.If you’re trying to buy this for your ps5 for more storage it is best for you to buy another game drive. Since this is a ps4 drive it doesn’t allow you to download ps5 games, but the product is perfect and simple.Thank you, great product. It works really well.買わないほうがいいです！買って1ヶ月で認識されなくなって中に入れてたデータ全部使えなくなりました修理しようとしても固まってされないもうこれはゴミでしかありません！Storage capacity, great looking and performance good and it has great power however the downside of it, is that you cannot play pS5 games direct on it and to so , you will need to copy pS5 from the drive and reinstall on the ps5 console storage but you can save pS4 games on it and be able to play directlyBought this whilst at 40%off,Nice compact drive with good storageLoading speed nowhere near you nvme or SSD speeds but still ok for standard gaming etcSome nice stickers insideThe usb lead that comes with it is ridiculously small in length so if you have a pc tower under your desk and want this drive on show on top you can't without an extender cable.Easy to use just plug it in format and your ready to go,Freed up loads of space on hubbys PS4.Fantastic external hard drive, very fast and efficient data flow. Running top end games at high fps with no trouble. Looking to get another as a result of how good it is.
