It's been hooked up to my PS4 for about 2 hours as of this writing, and knowing it's a mechanical drive with moving parts, it's dang near silent while having dozens of games downloaded onto it, and it generates very little heat. It's surprisingly hefty too, which is a sign of a quality product.
The drive actually reads as ExFAT when you hook it up to a PC, and to use it for extended storage on a PS4 for example, it needs to be formatted to FAT. Keep that in mind if FAT isn't what you need it for. If that's the case, you can format it completely on a PC, then partition the drive as much as you need to. The PS4 handles the ExFAT to FAT alteration perfectly.
The drive also reads as 3.63 TB instead of 4, so keep that in mind when making a purchase as it doesn't give you a full 4 TB. This is common with any drive.
I believe this drive is also rated at 5400 RPM, which is standard. It isn't fast, but it's huge, and small to boot. Also, it comes with its own special USB connector, so a micro USB that you might use for a phone or XBOX One controller won't work with it, so best to not lose the cable or you're going to be having a bad day.
Assuming I ever need another one of these, I'll most likely purchase the same drive again in the future.
