For the usual questions about PlayStation 5 Extended Storage, see the https://www.playstation.com/en-us...d-storage/ page FIRST before asking any questions.

You can store PS5 games and PS4 games.
You can play PS4 games directly from USB extended storage, which lets you save space on your PS5 console storage for PS5 games.
To play PS5 games, you need to copy game data from your USB extended storage drive back to your PS5 console's internal SSD storage. It's much quicker to copy a PS5 game from USB extended storage than to re-download it.

Could this be used on an Xbox One? Not and X - just the original Xbox One for additional storage?
Yes it can

Quote from bazza36 :
Can the hard drive be removed from the enclosure and then put back in at a later date?
Generally for external hard drives, both external desktop (3.5 inch) drives and external portable (2.5 inch) drives, when one "shucks" the external drive enclosure to remove/extract the internal hard drive they are voiding the external hard drive warranty.

Can one put a shucked drive back into it's enclosure? Yes. This assumes one hasn't destroyed the external hard drive enclosure when shucking/extracting the enclosure's internal hard drive. One can search Youtube and similar sites for videos on how to shuck various external USB hard drive enclosures.

Just note that with WD external portable USB drives generally will have the USB port integrated into the WD 2.5 inch hard drive. For now Seagate external portable drives currently do not have the USB port integrated into the Seagate 2.5 inch hard drive.

Thanks for posting OP. Elected this over the BB mostly due to Costco being the retailer. Rather deal with them if there are issues in a couple months given the minimal price difference.

Have 3TB of data to keep on a backup drive and hopefully not ever need to use.

Good timing.
