Perfect size, works great.

I only had this drive for a week. The speeds are crazy on this drive. I use it with an Nvidia shield for internal storage.RGB only works on window.I really like the small form factor.

I've been looking forward to getting this for the longest time. I've completely filled my internal hard drive to it's max when I had my Xbox One X now those same games I have are spread across multiple external hard drives and I cannot play them on my series X unless they are on the internal. This 2TB CARD will reduce the number of hard drives for my storage and finally be able to pay all my games whenever I want

So, why would I buy something this fast to connect to a device with USB 2.0 ports? Simple. They were on sale for $170. The Samsung EVOs and QVOs I usually buy were more expensive. The WD Blues were a little less, but not by nearly enough. Besides, these are SMALL. I can just throw them into a pants pocket and head to a friend's house. And while I may not be using them to their full potential now, if my Wii bites the dust, I have no shortage of options (I would even be comfortable installing VR games on these).But why use SSDs on a Wii at all? Surely the difference between SSD and HDD is negligible, right? Maybe on paper. In the real world, the USB 2.0 bottleneck that's supposed to nullify the difference between the two technologies somehow ends up amplifying it instead. I tried a 4 TB Passport with my Wii. To say that it was sluggish would be putting it nicely. When you test the difference with a spare SSD you have laying around and the two minute load times go away, it's obviously time to switch.My only gripes are that these get a bit hot when transferring files (I pulled out a mag fan when the first one hit 140 F), and that they were initialized as GPT. For the love of science, WHY? GPT is only needed for drives over 2 TB. That almost got them returned. The RGB lights don't come on when you connect them to a Wii, either. So, I thought WD had done something weird to make them incompatible with older devices (I wasn't wrong, it just turns out that something is easily reversible). Fortunately it hit me to do a "get-disk|format-list" as I was packing them up. I saw "GPT" and it was facepalm time. Sure enough, after switching them to MBR, they work great.

I played with the idea of adding storage to my now, relic of a console, for a couple of years. What a difference this drive has made! Seriously. I purchased the 2TB because it just makes sense to have more storage. Realistically I only needed 1. I had roughly 25 games on the internal drive of my Pro and wondered why it was so damn slow. This was a much needed "boost." After a very simple setup, I transferred all of my games to my P40. 2 and a half hours later, I was back in the game. I can't say that I experienced crazy fast load times for GT7(what I play mainly on my PS4 Pro), but what I did notice was getting back to the home screen while playing, was smooth and snappy. No more delays or stutter. Almost instant. If you're on the fence, just do it! It's more than worth it and I would highly, highly recommend. The overall construction of the drive feels solid. Lightweight but not cheap. I love that it looks like a shipping container. Rugged. The white text stands out quite nice on the anodized black finish. The RGB is a very nice touch if you like colorful lights that aren't too distracting. So, what are you waiting for?

Works as expected! Great expansion for gaming laptops that already don’t come with a lot of memory!

Took it right out of the box and have had no issues with it. In personally using it just as a portable ssd not a gaming one. Although there's plenty of storage to do so. It's fast, customizable, and super nice. I didn't even realize it had LED until I plugged it in. It's lightweight and it doesn't get hot to the touch either. Does everything I could've asked for, and when I got it there was an almost half off discount which was even more amazing. High recommend this ssd.
