Review on Seagate Game Drive 2TB External Hard Drive Portable HDD for PS4 - Enhanced Compatibility (STGD2000400) by Deep Echemendia

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Will not work with USB extensions, must be connected to a USB 3.0 port.

2 TB, plug and play. If you are using a first generation console you must use it on the correct USB port as the first generation console only has two and only one of them is 3.0 which is required for the drive to work properly (when the console is held upright ). , it's the bottom one, horizontally the left one) Also note that using USB extension will reset a USB port to a standard port and the drive will not work. It works well with any port on the Pro as they are all 3.0, but the front USB extension negates the use of 3.0 capabilities. Those minor glitches aside, it greatly enhances the game data experience and is simply plug and play. If you want all data to be written to it instead of the console's internal drive, you will need to change these settings on the PS4 under "Storage". Also note that as with all discs, you must tell your PS4 to stop using them before deleting them, otherwise your data will be corrupted.

Pros
  • cool product
