The device in itself is not a NAS and contains standard drive (not sure which specifically), not necessarily one designed for NAS. Any drive can be used as a NAS drive, though.
You will need other hardware/software to use this with a cloud. It is just an external hard drive. I use it with a dedicated PC running Amahi a linux based home server and this gives it cloud capabilities.
It works for Xbox one and a PC for sure. Im not 100% sure for playstation 4 but i would say it does work. I dont think it will work for xbox 360 since there is an external storage limiter for that console
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
Answer
This drive can be used with the Xbox One and Xbox 360 together. Sony has added support for external HDD's however it cannot be confirmed if the same drive can be used with other consoles.
This Expansion drive does not have a USB hub built in like the backup drive does. Also the backup drive states it comes with backup software. So, no hub & no backup software.

Answer
I believe the difference is in the warranty.
Expansion series is only 1 year, external/backup Plus is 2 years.
Still pretty crummy since in the "old" days, (not that long ago, 5 years?), 3 years was standard and 5 typically available.
In case interested, their internal drives are 3 years, and SSDs and enterprise internal drives are 5 years.
Unfortunately, without doing research on each and every drive you may want to buy, the warranty is NOT readily findable.
