Seagate Shuri SE FireCuda External HDD - USB 3.2, Customizable RGB LED Cyan, Works with PC, Mac, Playstation, and Xbox, 1-yr Rescue Services (STLX2000402)

I read up on the comments before purchasing this & someone claimed they played warzone flawlessly off of this external so I said 100 bucks?! Take my money! Unfortunately that was not the case although it does hold some X/S I’ve struggled with extra storage for awhile now! But major titles I doubt will play off of this hard drive, you still have to transfer your games back to the Xbox you’re better off with the expansion card that’s super expensive but at least you can play your games on Demand

Works as expected

The Seagate 8tb RGB gaming hub is an odd product. Its a fairly easy to look at device that you can slap on your desk and connect to your pc to have an extra 8tb of storage. It houses a slightly modified version of one of their cheaper 8tb barracuda compute drives with a slight boost in rpm, but that was as much as I could discern from hwinfo. The performance is pretty lackluster, and also it limits itself to 3gb/s instead of the normal sata 6gb/s connection (drive states it supports the latter but the enclosure does not). It has a type C port on the front but uses the faster bandwidth micro B connector on the back to connect the device which feels odd to me. The power connector is bulky, and comes with every type of regional connector (plastic clips allow you yo swap it) for better or worse. I would not reccomend travelling often with it, and grab a 2.5 inch drive like a WD p10 if that is your goal. The raw read and write speed of this drive isnt bad, but random writes are dreadfully slow. It takes forever for steam to allocate space on this drive for larger games and the speed once it starts downloading is also fairly slow. I may update with examples from crystal disk once im back near the drive. It also sometimes stays powered on after pc turn off and sounds/feels like its still spinning. That actively spooked me and I unplug it now after shut down now. Overall very mediocre but the price was fairly alright. Depending where you buy it you get 1-3 years of drive recovery, if you get 3 its fairly worth it as i bet the value would be good even with the extra effort of sending it in. Lastly the RGB is not seemless with Razer Chroma like advertised. It is not automatically detected even with the extra add ons. I believe their is an external software also available with it that allows it to change but honestly that was fairly dissapointing as I hoped to just combo it with my mouse/keyboard. TL;DR = One of the more dissapointing buys in my end. On a 40% discount its kind of worth it but otherwise hard pass. Cheap drive in a cheap enclosure marketed to gamers. Not a big fan of Seagates cheaper solutions, steer clear if you want reliability / performance.

Aloys artwork is amazing and looks like hand painted. The hard drive works fast with my PS5. It worths every penny!

So happy we found this, we were ready to get rid of the gaming console

If you’re trying to buy this for your ps5 for more storage it is best for you to buy another game drive. Since this is a ps4 drive it doesn’t allow you to download ps5 games, but the product is perfect and simple.

I bought this for my PS4 (dec 21), and have kept all of my games on it. I only had one issue setting it up and that was the fact I did NOT plug it in FAST enough. I couldnt figure out why it was not being read by my PS4 and looked online, turns out that was the issue. I have since got a PS5 and its plug and play. All of my PS4 games were on there, I was able to access them and play them immediately. Although the game save data was saved directly to the PS4, so I did have to transfer that to the external HD (or upload to cloud and access from there) to be able to resume any games from my save points. All in all, worth the buy, love having the extra space for plenty of games!

It is nice to finally be able to have all my games loaded and not worry if theres enough memory

I’m using this HD on my PS4Pro, it works great. At the moment it has 1 1/4 gig used with different games and had no problems. Is easy to use and set up, highly recommended for PS4 owners.

Always had an issue with not having enough space for games. Now I have over 30 full size games downloaded. Easy, simple, awesome!
