X1 4TB USB 3.0 Portable External Hard Drive for PC, Mac, PlayStation & Xbox (Black) - 2 Year Warranty

Bottom line: The Avoluxion X1 4TB USB 3.0 Portable External Hard Drive for PC: 4TB of storage in a palm-size, slim 2.5-inch enclosure; main trade-off: must be reformatted before first use, which erases any data already on it.

Pros & Cons

  • ✓ SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface for moving large game and media libraries
  • ✓ Works with Windows, Mac, PlayStation and Xbox once reformatted
  • ✓ 2-year warranty stated in the product listing

Cons

  • ✗ Must be reformatted before first use, which erases any data already on it
  • ✗ Spinning hard drive, so it is slower than a portable SSD
  • ✗ Mechanical drive is more vulnerable to drops than flash storage
  • ✗ No USB-C connection listed; USB-C-only laptops need an adapter
