"Product Features:

I really wish manufacturers could not list the full theoretical speed like that. It's like saying the windshield of a Nisan Versa is capable of 500mph speeds.

I have 4TB Easystore I used for external on PS4 Pro and moved to PS5. It has been very solid with no issues.

Update: for context purchased Nov 21, 2018 for $79 and came with a 32GB flash drive. It has gotten hundreds of hours of use.

Manufacturer's Warranty of 2 years is too short for me.

I think they are inferior, but I don't really know (this one got really good reviews if those can be believed). I picked up a 6TB Elements from Newegg for $100 back on the 15th, which I think was a better deal. A similar deal will probably come along soon. Apparently WD is a good brand now.

I'm not sure what kind of drive is in this one but the 6tb element was a white label smr drive. For archive purpose it was fine.

Apparently wd is a good brand now? Where have you been? Curious. Wd has always been a good brand. Seagate is the one who has always been a poop show

after decades of WD use and purchase, their recent datapolalypse, I'm not rushing for WD drive deals.

As before, having had four 4TB EasyStore drives fail on me, I wouldn't touch these with a ten foot pole. My Passports, yes, EasyStore, no.

This one is 5tb 2.5in easystore. Unlike 6tb 3.5in elements. Not really comparable.
