Compact and easy to carry! Open gaming HDD "WD_BLACK P10 Game Drive"!

Review

When you play a lot of games and save screenshots and videos, you may find yourself in a situation where you can't save the most important game because the HDD is full.
Since Saiga NAK also stores a lot of data on a daily basis, we purchased a Western Digital " WD_BLACK P10 Game Drive " gaming HDD!
Now let's unpack it!

First, let's take a look at the gaming HDD's outer box!


Outer Box Table
Saiga NAK

First of all, I would like to take a closer look at the outer box.
This time I purchased a 5TB HDD from saiganak.com.
There are three capacities to choose from: 2TB, 4TB, and 5TB!
The supported environments are

  • Playstation 4
  • Xbox One
  • Windows 8.1 and 10
  • macOS 10.11 or later

This is truly a gaming drive for games.
Next generation consoles such as PS5 and Xbox S|X were not listed, but they can be used without problems.
However, please note that games for PS5 and Xbox S|X cannot be started even if they are copied to the HDD.



Outer box back

Also on the back is a description of the HDD drive and a 3-year warranty mark!
The design is based on a black and white base, giving it a cool finish.


Let's open the box!

Now that we've taken a look at the outer box, let's open the package!
As for the contents, which we are interested in, they are tightly covered in a hard plastic container.
From the buyer's point of view, it is very helpful to prevent damage to the package when shipping it.



Surface

Here's the actual gaming HDD itself!
It has a cool matte black design.
This looks like it would fit in a gaming space.



Back side
Saiga NAK

On the back side, there are non-slip adhesives on all four sides, which I think will prevent excessive dropping.
And the non-slip effect was solid!
(Of course, when it comes to HDD, it is safe and reliable MADE IN THAILAND!)



connection port

The cable to connect the device is USB 3.2 Micro-B.



Accessories List
Saiga NAK

Here is the list of accessories.

  • WD_BLACK P10 Game Drive
  • USB 3.2 Micro-B
  • Instruction Manual

The black side of the manual shows how to connect the device with the illustration, and the white side describes the support and warranty information!
It's kind of cool that they are color-coded.



I tried to connect it.

Now let's try connecting it to a gaming device!
This time, I'm going to connect it to the next generation Xbox Series S!
The size of the device matches the main unit, and the main unit itself fits in the game space without floating.

When connected, the bottom right corner lights up.
It glows white and looks cool...



Memory Information
Saiga NAK

When connected, you can select the use of the device.
Do you want to use it for media or for games and apps?
Also, the product is 5TB, but the actual usable capacity is 4.5TB, so please be careful when you purchase.

That's it for the WD_BLACK P10 Game Drive gaming HDD!

WD_BLACK P10 and Xbox Series S
Saiga NAK

The WD_BLACK P10 Game Drive is available at Amazon.co.jp and electronics retailers.
Even if you have plenty of space left, it is a good idea to buy one in advance to avoid having to store screenshots and videos, which will fill up the drive and prevent you from being able to save your most important games on it.
Also, it is compact, durable, and convenient to carry around, which is one of the charms of this product, so I think it is possible to use it as a normal portable HDD.

If you are suffering from a lack of capacity, why not consider purchasing the "WD_BLACK P10 Game Drive" gaming HDD?
