If you’re a console gamer, sooner or later you’ll most likely need to expand your storage for games, and fortunately, both the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S now let you store next-gen titles on external hard drives in addition to last-gen games. This means you can copy games off your internal SSD to free up space for new downloads. Today’s a great time to stock up on some storage if you’ve been holding off, as an awesome deal is available today as part of Best Buy’s daily deals. Through the rest of today, June 1, you can pick up a WD Easystore 5TB hard drive for $100, down from $180.
WD Easystore 5TB External Hard Drive
$100 (was $180)
Though several different storage capacities for this drive are on sale, from 1TB to 4TB, you’ll get the most bang for your buck by opting for the 5TB drive. With game file sizes only getting bigger, you’ll appreciate having that ample storage space long-term. Plus, the 5TB option is only a few bucks more than the 4TB drive.
This drive will work well as reliable storage for games, whether you’re using it for PS5 games or Xbox Series X|S games. You won’t be able to play brand-new games off it, since that requires speedier SSDs, but considering the prices, it’s an easy way to save yourself time redownloading titles when your internal storage fills up.
Better yet, the black case of the Easystore will let it easily blend in with your consoles and entertainment system, while its USB 3.0 connection will allow quick and easy connections to consoles and PCs alike.
You can’t beat the WD Easystore drive at this price, but if you’re looking for more options for PS5 storage, see our guide to the best external hard drives and SSDs for 2021, which features other WD drives along with options from SanDisk and Seagate.
