WD_BLACK D30 1TB Game Drive

The WD_BLACK D30 is a portable SSD with 1TB capacity and a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C interface. It delivers read speeds up to 900MB/s to reduce load times in games. The drive includes a detachable stand and a USB Type-C to Type-A cable. It is formatted for immediate use with compatible consoles and PCs.

Console and PC gamers needing fast external storage

This drive suits players who want to expand storage on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 4 Pro. On PS5 it stores and plays PS4 titles only; Xbox Series X|S users can play Xbox One games and archive Series X|S titles. It also works with Windows 10, 8.1 and macOS 10.11 or later. Gamers who need to run current-generation PlayStation 5 titles directly from the external drive should look elsewhere.

USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C interface

The single specification that determines compatibility is the USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C connection rated for up to 900MB/s. Your host device must provide a USB Type-C or Type-A port supporting this standard to achieve the advertised performance. The included cable bridges Type-C to Type-A for broader port compatibility.
