UnionSine 500GB 2.5" Ultra Slim Portable External Hard Drive HDD-USB 3.0 for PC, Mac, Laptop, PS4, Xbox one,Xbox 360-HD-2510(Black)

I actually bought two different 750 GB external Hard Drives (HDD). The UnionSine 750GB HDD is mounted in what resembles a metal heatsink. The entire case is all plastic and solid. I decided on HDD for 2 reasons. 1. I needed more than 500GB but 1 TB was too much. 2. I wanted drives for long term storage.HDD is different from an SSD (Solid State Drive) in that the HDD is a mechanical drive with spinning platter and a movable head. HDDs are not as rugged as SSD and they require more power (current). The UnionSine 750GB drive comes with a USB cable with a USB-A on the computer end and a USB Micro B on the drive end. This cable provides more power for the HDD This cable not only provides more power, it also increase the data transfer to drive if the computer has v 3.0 USB.An HDD will maintain the data for a longer period than SSD as long as it is not dropped, bumped, or josteled. An SSD drive basically charges and discharges internal solid state cells. The charge will last about a year or so if the SSD is left unpowered. For cloning and archiving, an HHD is better unplugged and stored away. An SSD should be powered every so often.The UnionSine 750GB came in it's own box with a 3 yr warranty. The HDD is an Hitachi Global Storage Tech drive. If you buy this exteranl HDD you may or may not get an Hitachi HDD. I am guessing they buy a batch of 2.5" drives at the best price so it could be any brand. I ran a HDD test and it came back with perfect status. Problem and/or weak sectors not found. No spin up nor data transfer errors. Internal temp was 20 degrees C.The S.M.A.R.T. came back passing all tests.Either drive will do a good job.

I bought this external hard drive to expand the storage on my gaming PC, and it’s been a great investment. It connected instantly with no setup hassle, and transferring my game files was quick and easy. I’ve been running several games directly from the drive with no lag or performance issues. It handles large files smoothly and keeps up with my needs during gaming sessions. The slim design also fits nicely on my desk without clutter. For anyone looking to boost their PC game storage, this drive definitely does the job.

I bought this for my PS5. I had to look up where to find the storage in the settings, once turned on but that has nothing to do with the quality of the product. The drive was immediately connected to the game system and I was able to move games I no longer played onto it without a problem.I love that it is lightweight and black so it doesn’t look like an eyesore on the TV stand. I hardly ever notice it.I’m glad I bought the drive with the most storage from the start!

It came with like 100 gb less, but it's working fine so far after a month

I recently purchased the Black Portable External Hard Drive for my son, and it's been a solid performer.It’s a sleek, minimalist design. It's lightweight, making it perfect for travel or everyday portability—easily fits in a laptop bag or even a jacket pocket.The setup was seamless.At 500GB, it’s not the largest capacity out there, but it’s perfect for backing up essential documents, photos, and a moderate collection of videos or games. It runs quietly and doesn’t heat up excessively during extended use.Overall, this drive is a great value for the price. It's a dependable, stylish, and portable storage solution for users who need moderate capacity without the bulk.Would recommend.

I'm using it to expand the storage on my original Xbox One. It's at least as fast as the hard drive that comes inside of it if not faster. Does exactly what I wanted it to do was formatted and ready to go in under 2 minutes. Only gives you about 460 GB not 500 but I think that's par for the course with these things. Couldn't be happier.

This really works!! Good price. If you are looking for more back up memory ,this is the one.Easy to use and the best thing is that you can take it every where, is the right size.

Exactly as described, worked great for my son's Xbox series S. He was frustrated having to choose between games he wanted to play, but now he has the storage space he needs! Very slim sleek desighn and easy to use.
