The WD_BLACK P10 Game Drive supports data transfer speeds up to 5000 Mbit/s via USB 3.2 Gen 1.

Is the drive compatible with USB 2.0?

The drive is compatible with USB 2.0, but the data transfer speeds will be significantly slower.

What should I do if the drive is not working?

Troubleshooting

Drive not recognized by the console or PC.

Ensure the drive is properly connected and powered. Try a different USB port or cable. Check device manager on your PC to see if the drive is listed. If not, reformat the drive.

Slow game loading times.

Ensure the drive is connected to a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port. Close any unnecessary applications running in the background. Note that this is an HDD and not an SSD, so there will still be loading times.
