When games are played on it, the screen suddenly freezes and returns to normal, and the subject is repeated, and when the same game is transferred to the internal memory of the device, the game works normally.

What the title says. My laptop's SSD did not have enough capacity, so got this one. Have used it for other games as well since, works great

Purchase this for my PlayStation 5, and it holds all my PS4 titles and apps for my console, freeing up precious space for my PS5 game titles. Between this connected to my external USBC port on my PS5, and the internal 2TB SSD I installed on the inside M2 slot, it will be a long time before I have to delete anything off of my PS5.The drive also runs extremally fast and smooth. Load times are a fraction of what I experience on my PS4 with a standard spindle HDD.Loving it!One drawback: the USBC micro to USBC cable that comes with the drive is a bit short, so I purchase a longer cable with a right angled USBC plug on one end so I can extend the drive to the side of my game console instead of protruding from the front.

I've been using this hard drive as an external storage for a PS5 for about a month now. I have experienced no issues or concerns with the device, and I have found it to be fast and reliable, with an adequate storage capacity. While this device is pricier than other devices of similar storage capacity, I chose this one based on favorable consumer and third-party reviews. I have been very happy with this purchase. I am particularly impressed with the small footprint of the device and what seems like a solid, rugged metal external case that has an interesting, industrial aesthetic. Overall, I am pleased with the purchase, with the only downside being the price tag that is steeper than other options, but it feels worth the extra financial investment for the apparent quality.

Avec ce SSD WD Black P50 (important la version P50), j'ai pu installer un Windows sur ce SSD externe en tant que BootCamp pour mon Mac! Moi qui avait toujours le disque interne saturé, c'est parfait.La manipulation demande qq connaissances, mais vous trouverez des tutoriels assez facilement.Et les performances sont au rendez-vous, depuis 3semaines je peux lancer des jeux windows sans latence, sans bug/ralentissement... Top!

First off I have to mention, as with any and every hard drive, you will never get the full terabyte of space regardless of if it’s formatted to be totally empty or there’s an operating system on it or not. That’s how hard drives work, so those people leaving bad reviews because they didn’t get the “full” 1TB just don’t understand drives and file systems and calculated space vs actual. We’re not going to go on and on about that, if you’re going to fork out the money for it then you should already know that. This is the best external drive you can get for PS5 (if you get the SSD model). This SSD is nearly as fast as the internal PS5 drive. It can move game files very quickly and I’m impressed. I play almost all my PS4 games off of it with no issues (Fallout 76, GTA5, Warzone, Division 2). Load times are equally as fast. This includes both USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A. If you read the articles about the PS5 you should also already know that you have to use the USB ports in the back of the console (No USB hubs/Splitters/docking station) or the USB-C port in the front in order to use the high speed data transfer. It’s worth the money, especially with the coming release of the internal SSD upgrade update for PS5 because the price of those just went sky high and on back order. So if you need something to hold you over until then, this is your sure winner. Western Digital makes high quality stuff, will also work perfectly for personal PC storage if your computer has the latest USB gen ports AND your computers internal hard drive is rated for these speeds.

I used this for gaming on my PS5 for the past 6 months or so. Definitely of good quality and material.It did buffer on me once during one of those cutscene transitions while I was playing God of War. The loading symbol appeared on the lower right hand corner of the screen to signify that the game wasn’t frozen and that it was just loading, however it was only for 2 seconds and the game resumed as if nothing happened right after. Not sure if it had anything to do with the product itself or if it was just an issue on the game’s end, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Only happened to me once during my 40 hour play through.Other than that small thing (which honestly wasn’t that big of deal), it’s worked perfectly fine for the past half year and I do not regret buying this. Loads super fast and comes is a small, sleek looking case design. I’ve played shooters like Call of Duty, R6, and Battlefield on this just fine as well as other single player games like Ghost of Tsushima and Deathloop. All of which run and load extremely fast, just as good as if they were running on the console’s own internal storage.Overall 5/5, would definitely recommend if you’re willing to spend the money for a premium storage upgrade.

I bought this to be a workhorse for moving files between systems and holding data.I had previously purchased the 2TB model (not SSD) and while it is solid, it was quite a bit slower.the SSD model is 10x faster than the older spindle drives. It's also 1/2 the size. the outer casing is all metal, has rubber feet to keep it from slipping. The older 2TB model came with the legacy USB 3.x cable, while the new 500GB SSD unit comes with USB-C.If you're not concerned about speed, you'll get more space using the older 2.5" spinning drive.If speed is an issue, the SSD is THE solution. Fast.Both drives came pre-formatted with EXFAT, and one minor glitch (both partitions were labeled "WD_BLACK" -so with both devices plugged into my Mac, it could not differentiate them. I ended up re-formatting and renaming the new one "WD_SSD".One thing to note - the SSD does run warmer, but the metal casing seems to perform as heat-sink too.Very happy.
