Nice console games 
Storage
manufacturer
Seagate
has
announced
a
brand
new,
officially
licensed
product
for
PlayStation
owners.
The
Seagate
Game
Drive
External
SSD
for
PS5
and
PS4
is
available
to
buy
right
now.
As
per
a
Seagate
press
release,
the
new
drive
has
options
for
1TB
and
2TB
capacities.
The
1TB
model
comes
in
at
£139.99
(around
$189.99),
with
the
2TB
option
available
at
a
higher
£229.99
(around
$304.99).
Players
can
expect
the
Seagate
Game
Drive
External
SSD
to
be
very
console-friendly,
with
support
for
USB
Type-C
3.2
for
high
transfer
speeds
and
options
for
USB-A
to
USB-C
and
USB-C
to
USB-C
connections.
As
a
result,
it
looks
to
be
a
pretty
effective
way
to
store
games,
screenshots,
and
captured
footage.
As
is
the
case
with
the
best
SSDs
for
PS5,
you’ll
also
be
able
to
transfer
games
to
and
from
the
console’s
internal
storage
with
the
Seagate
Game
Drive
External
SSD.
This
can
save
you
from
having
to
delete
games
entirely,
thus
avoiding
a
lengthy
re-download
process.
In
terms
of
aesthetics,
the
Seagate
Game
Drive
External
SSD
–
no
doubt
in
part
thanks
to
the
official
PlayStation
licensing
–
bears
the
same
matte
white
color
scheme
as
the
PS5
console
itself.
There’s
also
a
subtle
blue
LED
strip
matching
the
lighting
of
the
console
and
DualSense
Wireless
Controller.
Extra
storage
for
your
PS5
and
PS4
is
always
a
welcome
upgrade.
Given
that
the
base
console
and
the
PS5
Slim
only
ship
with
1TB
of
storage,
your
console
is
going
to
fill
up
fast,
especially
if
you
like
to
install
larger
titles
like
Horizon
Forbidden
West
or
Call
of
Duty:
Modern
Warfare
3.
Having
an
extra
1TB
or
two
on
hand
can
save
you
tons
of
time
in
the
long
run.
It
is
worth
noting
that
PS5
external
SSDs
are
much
faster
than
traditional
external
hard
drives.
However,
unlike
internal
storage
options,
external
SSDs
aren’t
able
to
run
PS5
games
themselves.
You’ll
only
be
able
to
store
them.
That
said,
you’ll
still
be
able
to
both
store
and
run
digital
PS4
games,
making
the
Seagate
Game
Drive
External
SSD
a
fantastic
option
for
last-gen
console
owners.
