[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use and install. It has a USB port that makes it a breeze to connect. I connected my to a PS4. Once connected, all I had to do was follow the prompts for the PS4 to use it. If you are already familiar with how to transfer, it's a few steps and done.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you're looking for a SSD that is truly fast enough for newer systems then look no further.The speeds are fast and I'm never having to deal with irritating lags. It's really a nice design and a good quality. I feel it's a good price point for what you get specifically in in n performance. It does seem to get be a tad hot but nothing extreme by any means. Could not be more pleased overall. It's easy to install/use. Great product

Fast Storage On The Go!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Though the branding is focused on being a gaming drive, this really functions as an all around fast storage device. USB-C connection is ideal for connectivity and speed as well as the tough outer casing that gives you plenty of confidence when traveling with it. Personally I have been using this as backup storage that I can edit video off of and it has served me extremely well in my time testing it. Overall this is a great buy if you're looking for something that is fast and reliable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been a bit of a life saver for my Steam account saves. It also has made it easier if I wanna go and play on a friends PC logging into my account and having all my saves on my external hard drive. 10/10 would get again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The WD Black P50 Game Drive SSD is an awesome drive. It gave fast, stable, and more than enough performance, which is a big deal for gaming for my husband The P50 offers compatibility for both Mac, PC, Xbox One, and PS4, making it highly versatile. Also, its small enough to make it easier to be able to carry around and switch out. The WD Black P50 Game Drive SSD, you won’t have to worry about running out of storage space. Simply plug it to your console or computer, and you can start playing and accessing every single file you have, it’s called a game drive, you can also store other files in this SSD. I highly recommend this product . and my husband said its made playing call of duty on his xbox so much better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this a week ago and it’s the first solid state drive I’ve ever owned. If you have never owned one before i highly recommend it. Transfer speeds are light years faster than any sdd. Easily integrated and installed with previous hard drive and windows phone 10 build.

Great Drive

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The WD Black P50 is pretty fast for an external portable SSD. It has a slim design and the shock resistant cover seems pretty durable and keeps it well protected.
It can be used on desktops, laptops, as well as PS4 and Xbox One. It brings a USB Type-C and a Type-A cable. Very easy to format into NTFs or exFat32. The guide in the box also contains a detailed quick installation guide that was helpful and easy to follow. Easy plug and play and very convenient and useful to download the utilities offered by WD to check the drives health or to perform maintenance tasks. So far it has proved to be able to complete the job efficiently and it’s easy to use and manage. I'm currently using it to game on my pc and found it offers pretty good speeds.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this for my partner who plays tons of games, and this is just exactly what he was looking for so he can have enough space for all his gaming needs. It was not complicated to use, and was just exactly what he needs.
