8TB WD EasyStore Drive at BB. These are possible air-filled CMR WD80EDAZ drives. This deal is $10 cheaper than a similar BB deal for this 8TB drive from a couple of weeks ago.
How are these for use of game drives for the Xbox Series X and/or the PS4 and PS5? Or if this is not good for that use, do any of you have any recommendations on what I should use for those video game consoles?

PS5 unsure, but this will work on a series X for installing and playing Xbox one X and older titles. You CANNOT install series X games to a USB drive.
Anyone know if the drive inside is SMR or CMR? Would want to use in NAS so SMR is no good for that.
EDIT: okay from looking at Reddit Datahorders, it sounds like it's the necessary CMR drive: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoar...store_faq/

For the PS5 you will only be able to store and play PS4 games from it. PS5 games must be stored on internal NVMe drives.
Bah I need 16/18 deal price to come back. I wasn't ready when they hit last year but now I am. Need 5 of them to consolidate a bunch of drives. Crossing fingers it'll be soon since this deal is back already.
