Seagate Game Drive for PS4, 2TB, Portable External Hard Drive, Compatible with PS4 and PS5 (STGD2000200), Black

Great Product highly recommended

I was hesitant about getting this. It was pricey, around £78 at the time and I was worried it wouldn't work or corrupt my PS4 or I'd do something wrong. It was a big decision. Anyway, it was the cheapest at the time and the only official PS4/PS5 external hard drive available, plus it was brand new. eBay had a few, a little cheaper but they were used and well, you never know what you're buying when purchasing a used hard drive or any used electronics for that matter. The hard drive has 2TB of space, no more, no less. 2TB is tons of space. I've already almost filled the entire thing. I had around thirty physical copies downloaded onto it, then I got over excited and starting browsing and buying digital games off the PS Store. Currently I've managed to fit around 39 to 42 full games and some expansions onto the hard drive, with maybe just under 300 to 500GB left. Some of these games were small, 1GB, some quite large, 45+GB. I need to save room for Elden Ring's expansion :D I'm betting that will be 45 to 80GB.Note that you have to turn off the hard drive before turning off the PS4. You do this by holding the PS button on the controller, which brings up a menu, you navigate to Sound/Devices and turn off the hard drive. Then it will tell you the PS4 is safe to switch off. The guide tells you this anyway when starting up the hard drive for the first time, so don't skip those short tutorials. It's pretty much plug and play.So, if you need extra space for your PS4 and who doesn't. Get this hard drive while it's cheap(under £100).

Great purchase

This means that I can use it to store and play all my PS4 games directly from the external hard drive, even when playing on my PS5.

The drive is plug-and-play, and it seamlessly integrates with both PS4 and PS5 systems. I simply connected the Game Drive to my console via USB, and it was recognized instantly.

Performs very well, and games can be run from it on some PS5s. A bit slow to transfer games onto it, but once they are on there it is very quick to put them back on the console storage. Good value for money and makes no noise. Sleek design that can be hidden with ease.

Without this my ps wouldn't blown up. Great

i have this HDD connected to a ps4 , i have been using it for few years now , it is still going strong, it is almost full but no delays or lags during games.

I got my ps5 console just over a year ago and quickly accumulated new games and just like everyone else I soon found out that I was rapidly running out of hard drive space on the console. Initially I tried recommended usb sticks, none worked, then I found out about the game drives, but they were quite expensive so I thought I would wait for the price to come down. Finally got this one at a decent price thanks to amazon having a spring sale! All I had to do was plug it in and the ps5 formatted it, and that was it, it was ready! It works perfectly, I am really pleased that I no longer have to delete games and then reinstall them. Thank you amazon!
