I bought this for storage. Great option so you dont have to delete games. You can just transfer back and forth pretty fast

[@mrbentv1762]

such a great video again

[@daleflower]

I myself moved the Series X|S version of Skyrim to a hardrive and it played fine and ran well. So as mentioned only a certain number of games will be playable on a hard drive.

[@mj4824]

Can you play mm3 on it ?

[@quinxz807]

@@mj4824I’m assuming you meant mw3, pretty sure you can tho. As long as the game you’re trying to play is not optimized for x/s you can play it on this game drive. But you can still store the x/s optimized games on it just won’t be able to play it off the game drive, you would have to transfer it from the game drive to your consoles ssd

[@lloydfrancis9149]

Good video thanks

[@tech-Nic]

Thank you so much! Keep coming back for more...if you can stand the pain. muah ha ha! (evil laugh) No, but really...keep coming back...you there? hello?

[@antonisxatzakis7702]

You can store and play pc games on this?

[@ayk3144]

was hoping they would sell a 2tb card like the seagate. would be great if the series x had two expansion card slots

[@ed209v6]

I got this on sale and use it with my Mister fpga. It's overkill but works wonderful.

[@emjbostwick2068]

Will that WD xbox version work on the ps4 also if formatted?

[@SixLowa]

Theres a xbox version & a diff version ready to be formatted for Playstation, Xbox, PC, & Mac. You can store & play games only if its regular xbox one not X/S. If X/S you can only store. Therexare some x/s you can store/play. But mostly You have to transfer to internal drive if optimized x/s

[@joshrickman4349]

Nice!

[@marthiousknowledge9]

Can you find and review an SSD Expansion device please?

[@giovanijimenez6515]

What’s a good external hard drive that would allow us to play games off of it?

[@regine409]

watching here 🥰

[@nickgantz66]

Hi if I buy the ps5 version of the game drive can I format it for xbox series x system thanks for the 3

[@robgarcia1181]

Will it let me record in 4k? Im so sick of being stuck with 1080p clips.

[@mcchristenson]

Anyone using this drive for personal storage its a decent option. I have 2 and not using them for gaming. Actually using them for a plex server and they work great. However the transfer speeds are terrible and inconsistent. I just did a backup to one that filled it up and it took 12 hours. At usb 3 speeds. Otherwise very reliable drives and no issues other than my time.

[@idfk8268]

Can anyone help with an issue I’m having, I set up my drive fine and it was working for a while but now when it is plugged in it only shows up when I’m in my nans house but not when I’m mine does anyone know why this is and can I fix it?

[@benjamin6523]

Questions can I use it for my captures on my xbox to copy video over dose it work yes or no

[@tech-Nic]

Yes, you should be able to set the device as your default for captures in the settings.

[@ejspad]

U can only play Xbox series x or s with the ssd cards only

[@jontython]

I would strongly recommend against buying a WD product directly from WD, at least in the UK. I bought a drive for £130 with shipping included. They used UPS as the courier. UPS supposedly left my parcel on the doorstep in full view of a park that 100's of people walk through every day. Surprisingly the parcel wasn't there when I got home. WD stance on this is that because I have paid for the item and they have 'delivered' it to my address they bear no responsibility. As a kicker, they have offered me a 20% discount on my next purchase, or(get this) an extra years warranty on the item that I've never received. I've hit a complete brick wall with it now so may as well have given a stranger £130.

[@tech-Nic]

Wow! That just sucks!

[@leeparsons70]

I would dispute this with your card company

[@-_-meh69]

I just got this one on Amazon for 70 bucks!!! Free game pass also🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@ejspad]

Hard drives r for Xbox original or Xbox 360 and Xbox one games only

[@destroyermcw626]

You look like my Pre calculus Teacher sort of

[@leeparsons70]

I just wanted to add. That isnt hundred per cent correct. You can run some next games from an external drive. I currently do. Their is no way to know if they will or will not run from the external drive. I have found this out on trial and error. Zombie army 4 dead war works from external drive. I have a few others that do as well, like rocket league

[@mitchjohnson4970]

See if will run Morrowind

i got a wd black 4tb for 80 dollors

[@eagleeyecc1093]

[@nickcavetwo42]

Why waste

[@PhotographyGuy22]

What about pc

[@ajx2956]

Hmm

[@stevenking997]

bite the bullet and get an expansion card, its worth it.

[@tech-Nic]

I would have to agree. Love your work by the way.

[@ajx2956]

I wish I knew I couldn’t download PS5 games to it. 🤦‍♂️

[@ChrisThornton1993]

You can’t play the games tho

[@TristanDowling]

You just have to transfer it from the external to the internal and you can play it, it takes less time then deleting a game and then downloading another

[@kerplunk10788]

Thank God I didn't buy it lol.

[@Guapgangpep415]

Wish I would of watched this video months ago before I wasted money on this bs🤦🏾‍♂️😒

[@tech-Nic]

Oh I hate that. I'm assuming the inability to play the games directly from the drive is what's causing your frustration...am I right?

[@user-tl2xh5ft3s]

Microsoft sucks another way to corner the market and force people to spend money on ssd cards if they can make a internal drive for the Xbox series x then they can release a external drive with more space than 2 teribites ....dumb

[@leeparsons70]

Its sad to say, this is where fony wins with playstation. As far as i am aware, putting ssd into it, is a doddle. Runs faster than usb 3 connection. Ms really drop the ball with that, considering they have been in this space for a very long time. Of course they can still use these drives as well. We are held to ransome with expensive expansion pass in comparison.
