External SSDs tend to be anonymous little boxes that don’t draw attention to themselves, adorned only with a USB port, a maker’s logo and a power LED if you’re lucky. This model from Seagate is officially licensed for Sony’s PlayStation games console, which surely makes it a shoo-in for our Best SSDs for PS5 list, and comes with a matching light bar that glows blue while you’re using it. Whether this is a good idea or not is a matter of taste, but there's no denying the rather good data transfer performance that this little drive is capable of.
