    Quick and easy software. I'll just leave it plug (USB) for continuous back up or plug it in a few day later for a quick complete back up.

    I absolutely love having this external harddrive. I use it for my Xbox One S, and it's very easy to use. You literally unbox it and plug it into the USB port, and it configures to your system. It's ready to go just that fast and you've upgraded your memory to hold all of your glorious games and data.
