Ps5 Internal Hard Drive

I got e of them to use for my internal- hard drive.

For connect a hard-drive for internal backup.

Bought to use on an internal hard drive, to make it and external hard drive.

I used this internal hard drive with 3 others for my Four Bay Hard Drive enclosure. Easy to install, didn't give me any hard time. It's fast enough.

Bought this to expand the storage in a PlayStation 5. The drive is fast enough that it provides as good or better performance than the built-in drive, and it expanded the total available storage from 800GB (about 625 usable) to 2,800. That's great because as big as modern games are, the stock hard drive only puts about ten PS5 games at your immediate disposal. As for the buying experience, B&H customer service was stellar as always, the product shipped quickly and arrived in great condition. Sony made the installation process quick and easy, much like upgrading memory in a laptop, where you just have to access a side hatch rather than crack the whole device open. Of course I'd still suggest the usual precautions like an anti-static strap. I've seen some questions about this elsewhere, so I'll mention it here in case someone's deciding between an internal drive like this one or an external drive, which are usually cheaper and bigger. Internal drives can hold both PS5 and PS4 games, and you can play them straight from the disk as if it were part of the console, because it kind of is. External drives can be used to store whatever games you like, but PS5 games have to be transferred to an internal drive before you can play them. It's not a huge hassle, USB 3.0 data transfer speeds are pretty quick, but it does mean a bit of juggling.

Top of the line internal hard drive at a Very good price.

My maxed out PS5 hard drive was freed up and transferred to the WD SSD in minutes. The drive installed easily and the integration into the PS5 was flawless. I’ve already highly recommend it to friends as family and no all of you get the same endorsement.

Really happy with the storage size for the price (I got it on sale, so even more of a bargain). This is now I believe my 4th WD brand external hard drive, and I think the 3rd I've bought from the My Passport line. Never had any issues with any of the My Passports, and so far this new one is holding up just as well as my now 5ish year old ones. The only downside, which has nothing to do with the hard drive itself or the company... I bought this for my PS5, and found out after the fact that externals can only be used to store PS4 games. I had purposely gone for 5TB assuming I would need massive amounts of storage for extremely large PS5 games. It's okay though, I'm sure I'm still going to rinse through storage space with PS4 games anyway-- it's never a bad idea to buy the larger storage size. Just pointing it out in case anyone else had the same idea I had.

This hard drive is the best I can finally download all my PS4 and PS5 games I'm very satisfied with my purchase thank you WD Black

It's hard to say if there is a better competitor out there, lots of different variables. I went with Western Digital SN850P for my PS5 drive, mostly because of the warranty and quality that comes with buying Western Digital. I installed into my PS5 with no issues and it formatted super quick.
