## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this compatible with the ps4?**
A: Yes it works fine on ps4 had mine since 2019 no issues at all

**Q: Do i need different cables for usb 3 or usb 2?**
A: The cable that comes with it is a "USB-B micro", which is rarely used to a "standard old" USB-A connector.  I am totally disappointed because neither end plugs into a MacBook Air which only has USB-C connector.

You will need either a hub, converted or buy another cable like this one:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09ZP5BHBF

**Q: You know if it works with ps4?**
A: Yes, you will need to go to settings in the PS4 under usb devices and reformat the drive to the PS4 and it will work.

**Q: Can I plug this into my xbox one and store games on it?**
A: Must be formatted to run as a system drive when you plug it in, i use mine for my ps4

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works great

great External Drive to have makes storing easy

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works questionably good for having it for a few weeks now.
*by N***R on August 15, 2023*

I do a lot of gaming and one of the big problems I have with my xbox series s is storage. The game console comes with 300 gb of storage for gaming which is terribly very small. An easy work around to this is to redownload games and back up data to the cloud but the problem with that is it requires internet to be able to do that and to back up games to the cloud takes forever compared to backing them up on a drive. Backing them up on a drive has 1 gb/s where transfer speeds of my wifi router to the xbox are about 0.2 gb/s making storing them on a drive 5 times faster in terms of transfer speeds and such. This is not my first toshiba drive. I bought a 1 tb drive last year but I chose to get rid of it because 1 tb is just not enough storage for game transfer. I have already used up 2.7 tb of the 4 tb drive I bought from this seller. Pros: 1. Dirt cheap drive. 2. Stores what you want. 3. Transfer speeds greatly out perform my wifi router making it more ideal for gaming in my opinion because the xbox series s is hugely impacted by the number of different games you can play. Cons: 1. Unlike the 1 tb version I can feel the 4 tb version vibrating while in use suggesting that there is a spinning disk inside. As other people reviewing this have pointed out it is more prone to failing than a ssd drive. Just something to keep in mind. I haven't had this drive fail on me yet. Conclusion: I have repeatedly transferred back and forth repeatedly numerous terrabytes worth of data and it has not failed on me yet. Just remember to keep backups of backups always. Good day!
