Seagate (STGD2000100) Game Drive for PS4 Systems 2TB External Hard Drive Portable HDD – USB 3.0, Officially Licensed Product

The Seagate 8tb RGB gaming hub is an odd product. Its a fairly easy to look at device that you can slap on your desk and connect to your pc to have an extra 8tb of storage. It houses a slightly modified version of one of their cheaper 8tb barracuda compute drives with a slight boost in rpm, but that was as much as I could discern from hwinfo. The performance is pretty lackluster, and also it limits itself to 3gb/s instead of the normal sata 6gb/s connection (drive states it supports the latter but the enclosure does not). It has a type C port on the front but uses the faster bandwidth micro B connector on the back to connect the device which feels odd to me. The power connector is bulky, and comes with every type of regional connector (plastic clips allow you yo swap it) for better or worse. I would not reccomend travelling often with it, and grab a 2.5 inch drive like a WD p10 if that is your goal. The raw read and write speed of this drive isnt bad, but random writes are dreadfully slow. It takes forever for steam to allocate space on this drive for larger games and the speed once it starts downloading is also fairly slow. I may update with examples from crystal disk once im back near the drive. It also sometimes stays powered on after pc turn off and sounds/feels like its still spinning. That actively spooked me and I unplug it now after shut down now. Overall very mediocre but the price was fairly alright. Depending where you buy it you get 1-3 years of drive recovery, if you get 3 its fairly worth it as i bet the value would be good even with the extra effort of sending it in. Lastly the RGB is not seemless with Razer Chroma like advertised. It is not automatically detected even with the extra add ons. I believe their is an external software also available with it that allows it to change but honestly that was fairly dissapointing as I hoped to just combo it with my mouse/keyboard.

Fácil de instalar -y reparar. Recomendable.

Ive had it for about 10 months now and it works great. Had about 53 games installed on an original PS4 and it still worked great. I recommend it!

I used it for my ps4 and its a goldmine!

Awesome

Works flawlessly with my PS4.

Got for Christmas gift for son he use it said it was good

When I saw a port with an image of a laptop and a lightning bolt, I assumed this had power delivery for laptops as this is a super common feature of all Thunderbolt docs. I had to really dig through all the information about this to find the actual point where it was said that there is no power delivery. Really disappointed!

I was using the drive for my PS4 as my PS4 was running out of space. Then I used the drive to move all my PS4 games to PS5. Smooth transition, no need for formating drives from PS4 to PS5. Highly recommend the product.

It worked as advertised for a whole 3 months. I bought it in February, it completely stopped working by May. This device is the perfect example of why you should NEVER review something when Amazon asks you to. Wait a few months to review a product. I kept great care of it, it did not matter. Just read the other reviews, youll see its an extremely common problem that it breaks fast. They make sure it will last the 30 days, that way you cant return it when it breaks.
