Review: Nice looking, compact little 'plug & play' drive with good speed and storage. - Bought on recommendation of someone who knows what they're talking about (as I don't really!) and all seems good so far. Drive came well packaged and protected, fired up and appeared on the laptop desktop straight away and the included USB cable allows for quick data transfer. Probably not pushed it's ability too much yet but have backed up a ton of photos and some fairly lengthy videos without issue and at surprising speed. Barely scratched the surface in terms available space too so if you're an average Joe like me and not looking to store a TV station worth of content, this little guy should do you well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this connect and run with a new Mac Studio**
A: It has front-facing USB-C and USB 3.0 ports for connections. 
Your Mac Studio has Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) ports. 
So the answer is a it will definitely connect to your Mac but you may need to format it for the use you intend to put it to.

**Q: Can I use this to save videos from a camcorder?**
A: It depends on the camcorder and the cables you have available. The camcorder will be able to write directly onto the hard drive if it is connected while the recording is taking place.

**Q: Can i use this for PS4 pro?**
A: Yes this can be used with a ps4 pro

**Q: I would like to know if you can store playstation 5 games on to this Drive**
A: I do not own a PS5, sorry, but having had a look, I believe that this would work for a PS5 though.
You can run PS4 games directly from an external drive on PS5.
You can store PS5 games on the external drive too.
But to play PS5 games I believe you will have to move/copy the games from the external drive to the internal one.
For PS5 games the external drive is only a storage drive, saving downloading the game every time you want to play it.
When you are short of space on your main/internal drive, you can make space by moving some games from internal to external.
Hope this helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just what I need
*by A***H on 13 January 2026*

Comes with 1.8T which is unfortunate as it’s advertised as 2T, however it works fine and still stores everything that I need. Light weight and read speed is great.
