DOS76 Posted July 22, 2016 Posted July 22, 2016 I don't really know I have looked at that drive numerous times but never bought it myself. I think that it would but that is just a guess with no actual real world experience with the drive. I just can't imagine that it is that slow that it can't pull off playing a game. Quote

I really wouldn't bank on the Archive series of drives to cope with frequent read/writes (normal HDD use). Quote
