About this product
The WD_BLACK P10 5TB Game Drive is a portable external hard drive in a 2.5-inch form factor, offering 5TB of HDD storage. It features a USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface, a 5400 RPM rotation speed, and a 64 MB cache. The drive boasts a read speed of 500MB/s and a transfer rate of 550 Mbps, along with shock-resistant and rugged features. It comes with a 3-year manufacturer warranty and is compatible with Xbox Series X|S, PS5, PS4 Pro, macOS 11+, and Windows 10+.
Our take
This WD_BLACK P10 is a compelling option for gamers needing significant storage expansion. The 5TB capacity is fantastic for hoarding games across multiple consoles and PC, and the broad compatibility with current and previous-gen systems is a big plus. The USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface combined with a 64MB cache and a 5400 RPM drive delivers respectable performance for an HDD, though the listed 500MB/s read speed seems unusually high for an HDD and might be an error or specific test scenario. The rugged, shock-resistant design and 3-year warranty definitely add confidence for a portable drive.
