And suddenly it was almost Christmas again. I hope you have already collected all the presents (ugh, if not!) and have already taken part in our previous Advent competitions. I’ll keep our fingers crossed. And if you’re just starting now: Until December 26th. do you still have time to take part in the last sweepstakes (click on “Competition” above for an overview).

Today there is hardware again, and of the practical kind. Who doesn’t know this: Especially on the PS5, the super-fast NVMe hard drive is quickly full again and if you don’t really feel like deleting games, … well, you usually have to delete them anyway. This is where external hard drive solutions like Seagate’s come into play. Together with the traditional hard drive manufacturer Seagate, we are giving away two 4TB hard drives – that’s terabytes, i.e. 4,000 gigabytes! More memory than you can ever fill. Or at least not that fast.

Since it’s an HDD like the ones used in a regular PS4, only much larger, this storage solution isn’t designed to run PS5 games. You can, however, install your PS4 games on the game drive and play them directly from it. This is another way of saving the valuable internal NVMe storage on your PlayStation 5 and not wasting it on classics from the last generation. When you’re not playing them, however, PS5 games are stored on the Game Drive just as securely and conveniently as their PS4 counterparts.

As I said: Extremely practical accessories that make everyday gaming on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 much easier and that two participants in our Advent competition will soon be able to look forward to. After all, moving a game around takes a lot less time than downloading it all over again. Good luck to everyone who takes part!
