Review: Great for PS5 External Storage !!!!!! - I was using a 2TB drive for my PS5 external storage which I had originally been using with my laptop, but with the size of games it quickly filled up, so if I wanted to play a new game I had to delete one and download the game I wish to play which could take several hours. I have now downloaded all my PS5 and PS4 games onto this drive and moved a couple from internal storage over to this drive which frees up space on my internal storage. To play PS5 games stored on this drive you do have to move them to internal storage which only takes a few minutes compared to several hours it would take to download them, PS4 games can be played directly from this hard drive which I do and they play great with no issues. If your after external storage for your PS5 this does the trick, as this is the 8TB model the drive spins at 7200 rpm, but 5TB or less drive spins at 5500rpm which will give slower transfer speeds but will still be ok.
Review: A little loud, but performing well and looks awesome - I got this drive for storing and editing photos, as well as storing video files. Its working great and is so much faster than my old 5200rpm drive. This apparently houses an data center level HDD, so it should hopefully be more durable than the desktop level HDDs that come in cheaper external drives. It looks really cool with the rugged enclosure design and features two USB sockets that would be very handy to have on the desk. Unfortunately its a little too loud for me to have on my desk. There is a fan inside to provide active cooling, which is great to have for durability of the drive, but it is quite loud. As well as the fan, the drive itself is fairly noisy being 7200rpm. I have put the drive inside a cupboard, with a mini USB room fan plugged into the USB socket on the enclosure. Very handy to have them! The drive runs a little hot at around 56c according to crystal disc info. I searched it and apparently its normal for this type of drive to run a little hot, so I don't think its an issue with the enclosure or the drive. Setup was easy and just a case of plugging in the USB and power cable and turning it on. Windows immediately detected the drive and it was ready to go. Overall I am very pleased with this external HDD and would definitely recommend if you're looking for a fast external drive.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What drive is in the casing?**
A: It's an OEM drive, in my case it identifies itself as WDC WD20SMRW-59YNDS0. Couldn't find anything online when I searched, but it's a 5400rpm drive so definitely the "black" here is pure marketing. As are performances, I assume it has a bit of cache as I could reach the claimed speeds on a drive benchmark test, but in normal use speeds are just on par with any external 5400rpm disk.

**Q: Is this smr or cmr?**
A: It's a device managed SMR drive inside

**Q: Is there any physical difference between the pc and xbox versions? is it faster and more reliable than the wd my book?**
A: The 12TB Game Drive is faster than most external drives. Using it on a USB3.0 port I get 200 to 250MB/s. If you only get 80MB/s something is wrong, or you have it in a USB2 port. Most other external drives only achieve about 100MB/s.

**Q: can this be used with a pc/laptop or is this made for just xbox?**
A: I've not used it with a PC, but the data sheet says it's compatible with Windows 8.1 and 10, so I don't see why not.
It's not the cheapest or fastest portable drive available, but for an Xbox owner, the (limited availability) 2 month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate voucher made it a good offer.
