This is not how it works... You have half gig speed meaning 0.5 gigaBITs per second. This is read/write at 1 gigaBYTE per second.

There are 8 bits in 1 byte. So if you want to compare the speed, it would actually be ~16x slower to download vs transfer from this drive into internal PS5/XSX console.

I'm going to be using it for both the PS5 and XSX. You can store PS4 and PS5, XB1 and XSX games on it, but you can't play the next-gen games from these. You just have to move them back to the internals.

from their website: "Did that gift you ordered last week or the kayak you treated yourself to just go on sale? Costco.com will gladly issue a credit for the difference between the price you paid and the promotional price, with some limitations."

try calling or chat first.

I was thinking of building up a NVME drive in an external enclosure for another drive for a Mac Mini I just ordered. This seems cheaper than messing with all that

Doesn't XBox use aproprietary format, can you use it for PS5 and XBox at the same time?
they all use proprietary format, so you can't interchange them at the same time.

i think you might be able to partition it and format each partitions to be used for each platform?

This is only logical if you have slow internet. I got half a gig down so this would only half the speed vs downloading. If it's a game you play often you likely won't be moving it back and forth often. $100 to maybe save me 10 or 15 minutes very very occasionally is IMO a waste of money.

here's a conversion chart so you may know relatively how your half-a-gig internet speed compares to the speed of this external SSD.

Procrastination saved me $20! If I wait a week, might it go even lower? 🧐🤣

I'm hoping to see a fast type c ssd-on-stick option between now and then, but failing that, this is a great option to share a stream library between a deck and a pc. I guess you'd have to velcro this onto the back of the deck, or something

Waiting for Costco to carry the 2TB model. Or a larger SSD external drive. The Seagate 5TB 2.5" external drives are okay, but it would be nice to go solid state for offline backup due to no moving parts, not speed.
