Yes, a USB cable is included. According to Seagate, a USB 3.0 cable is included in the scope of delivery.

The following applies to the PS5: An external USB SSD is primarily intended for storing PS5 games and for playing PS4 games directly; PS5 games must be copied back to the internal memory if necessary.
1TB is enough if you only need a little extra space. 2 TB is the better compromise between price, convenience and reserve for most people.
The main difference to the Samsung SSD T7 Shield is that the T7 Shield is also an external SSD, i.e. a fast USB storage device. For the PS5, the benefits are similar because both are used as external storage; for directly playable PS5 titles, however, you still need the console's internal storage.
If you want more space and don't want to manage it all the time, I'd go for 2TB rather than 1TB.

This external hard drive is compatible with the PS5. It can store PS5 games, but these must be transferred to the PS5's internal drive in order to be played. PS4 games, on the other hand, can be played directly from the external hard drive. The drive is powered via the USB port and uses the USB 3.2 interface, which is compatible with the requirements of the PS5.

Yes, you can move videos and screenshots to the external hard drive. The hard drive serves as extended storage for your PlayStation, so you can save not only games but also other files such as videos and screenshots on it. However, PS5 games can only be played on the internal SSD, while PS4 games can be launched directly from the external hard drive.

No need to transfer anything, the speed makes no difference, I don't even notice that the hard drive is plugged in.
Hello
Yes you can also back up games to it and PS4 games can even be played directly from the hard drive without having to load them onto the console.
Only the PS5 games have to be downloaded first and then you can play them.
I did it with my PS5 so that I have all PS4 games on the hard drive and the PS5 games are stored on an internal SSD hard drive.
Greetings
Yes

You can save the games on the hard drive, but you cannot play them from there. This means that you cannot set the hard drive as storage space as you can with the PS4. You have to save each game individually to the hard drive and drag it back to the PS5 to play it. So it's best to save games you've already played on the hard drive.

Should work. :) But you will certainly notice a difference in speed compared to the SSD. Alternatively, you could also retrofit a Game Drive M.2, certainly the nicer solution.

I use it for my PS5, works perfectly. Highly recommended.
Hello
Well, as I remember, it can add deleted data back.
Yes, it works perfectly! Formatting and data transfer worked without any problems.
I think this hard drive is only compatible with the Ps4. It is best to buy external hard drives from the same brand as the device. (but don't know if Apple offers these).
Digitec is not responsible for the internal operation or malfunction of the PS4.
Try putting the default save on the external drive.
Go back into the game and make a new backup.
Otherwise see the official PS4 documentation

Also for PCs

These data relevant to you are not given because even the manufacturer does not specify them. What should Digitec write then?

There are reasons why they are not given and Seagate is not the only manufacturer. Hardly anyone actually does this with external hard drives. If the manufacturer does not give exact technical specifications, he is very flexible in the HD he installs in the housing. So he can always take what is currently available and cheap.

Unfortunately not. This product is only compatible with PS4.
Good morning Laurent As far as my experience and my friends are concerned, it is compatible.

Sorry, but I only have a PS4, so I can't tell you if it's possible with a PS5
I can't say, it runs fine on the PS4.
