Seagate's new officially licensed external 2TB hard drive lets you download, play, and store more of your favorite games.
Today, we’re excited to introduce the officially licensed for PlayStation 4 systems. The new Game Drive gives PS4 gamers an extra boost in storage, with amazingly simple portability that allows you to carry your games with you.
Our new Game Drive for PS4 has been rigorously tested and is optimized for PS4 systems. It features a small sleek design and branding that pairs well with your PS4. Most of all, the large increase in storage capacity lets you hang on to your favorite older titles and add-ons while still leaving room for new games. With a hefty 2TB capacity, you can free up space on your PS4 system’s internal drive and consolidate approximately 50* games into a single location. (Do note, once content is stored on the drive, the content can only be accessed by the account that transferred the content.)
The Seagate Game Drive enhances the players’ gaming experience with easy installation, and direct connection via USB cable. Setup is easy, since the PS4 automatically recognizes your Game Drive and helps get it up and running in approximately three minutes.
Here are some of my favorite benefits of the Seagate Game Drive for PS4:
- Instantly adds 2TB for approximately 50 more games*
- Full-speed gaming, just like playing from the PS4 system’s internal drive
- Optimized to work with every model of PS4 (requires system software version 4.50 or greater)
- Easy to bring to a friend’s place to play your games on another PS4 system (do note, once content is stored on the drive, the content can only be accessed by the account that transferred the content)
- Truly plug-and-play; doesn’t require additional cables
- Doesn’t need to plug into the wall — USB powered
The new Game Drive for PS4 is available next week in North America for $89.99 USD (MSRP) / $119.99 CAD (MSRP) — look for it at your favorite retailers and online. Check out Seagate.com for more details.
*Based on an average storage requirement of 39GB for PS4 games published on or before June 2018.
That little PS logo is apparently worth $30. Right now on Amazon you can get this exact 2TB Hard Drive for $60. For $95, a mere $5 more than the “official PS licenced HD”, you can get the exact same Seagate Hard Drive but with DOUBLE the storage at a whopping 4TBs.
And the carton box! do not forget that
That’s a serious problem with any of these branded devices. Shop around – any USB-powered USB3-compatible drive should work just as well as this one. I have an old 1TB portable (and a 2TB internal I installed the day I bought my PS4, years ago) and it works great.
But if it goes on sale for the same price some day, I might pick it up for the PS logo. We’ll see.
Can you list the best products that a similar to this?
@TriggaHappy2313 I have a white Western Digital My Passport 4TB, works like a charm.
So go buy yourself one off Amazon then.
@Spazz3870 yeah god forbid anybody go out of their way to be nice and warn others who might not know of the price gouging.
