Got my 1tb On Clarence at Walmart, only for 50 bucks. I think I bought my P10A year ago and I was like $69. I believe roughly that of a brand new game and there was a 2 TB. One I actually think I'm gonna enjoy the 1 TB better, especially since it was cheaper kind of wish there was 2, but there was only 1 left on clearance.
I also picked this up at a Walmart today for $52. Should be a massive upgrade for "cold storage" of Series X games, in terms of the transfer speeds back to the internal SSD. The 2018 era external (mechanical) drive that was for Xbox One was is very slow transferring enormous games back and forth. This will free up to go back to using that drive just for Xbox One games. The fact that this can be reformatted to PS5 or Windows down the line is an added bonus. Solid deal.
I've been daily driving my entire library off of a WD_BLACK P10 4TB HDD on an OG XB1 for a few years now. Its faster than my internal HDD, so I get less weird texture glitching, and its just plain sexy.
The one that's recommended is the Seagate expansion card. P10 and d30 are two different drives. You can go to Western digital's website and look at the breakdown of the models. These drives are alternative solutions for people that don't want to go and purchase the Seagate expansion card. If you want to transfer games faster and you're optimized game and retro games to load faster go with an SSD. If you are okay waiting 10+ minutes and above for a game to transfer at times and are more worried about a budget, go with an HDD. Now remember neither will play seriesius X only games, they will only store your files. The Seagate expansion card is the only thing that can store and play with no issues directly from the card because it's an expansion of the console memory itself, not an external drive
Hi! I'm from Argentina. I would like to ask you something: Can we play next gen games if I buy the WD Black D30 expansion disc? For example, can we play Fifa 23, NBA 23 2K, Forza Horizon 5, or future games like FC 24?
I’m trying to use this but can’t because it keeps telling me I have to sign in when I plug it in. I am signed in to my Xbox though and now it won’t even show up in my storage location.
How do I reformate this I went into my disk management window to do so but the formate button wasn't there. It has already been formated to Xbox I need it for pc
Do not get this wd black d30 it’s not what it appears. It died in 6 months so I took the drive apart and inside it’s a nvme blue. It’s not even a black drive it’s a scam
New to expansion devices for consoles. What happens if I have a bunch of Xbox games saved on the drive then just plug it into my PS5 and start downloading stuff from there on to it? Say I buy the 2TB option can I have 1TB of games from each console then just jump back and forth?
I dislike this video because I have a PS five and you didn’t mention its capability with a PlayStation five at all and you only much an Xbox so change the title
This drive is actually more compatible with the PS5 since it supports it's 3x2 gen 2 speeds that the Xbox doesn't. It works great for PS5 to store PS4 and PS5 games. You can play PS4 games off of it. So it's great to use it for your PS5 games and save the internal storage for PS5 games.
Hi all, I’ve just started using this with an Xbox Series X and noticed very inconsistent drive speeds. Sometimes it’s super fast and then drops to almost half speed? Has anyone else noticed this?
Bought mine from Walmart and I gotta say....I'm a bit disappointed. The fact I have to transfer games back to internal storage just to play them....if I wanted to sit and stare at a loading bar, I would uninstall and reinstall every time I go to play a game. And this cost over $100?!? What's the point....if this is how it functions, they should have added that bit of information on the packaging. Then I wouldn't have wasted my money on this thing.
How do you it make it work ?? My husband plugged it in it says not found but then says theirs 931.5 gb of space but won't let us transfer games to it or down load on it ....what do I do
@@patricksutter192 YES I bought a 2TB model from Ebay and it works great on the Pro. loading screens are shorter, and texture pop-in is less frequent. It's a very nice looking SSD as well so it'll look slick next to your console.
