    After running out of space on my Xbox one I needed an external hard drive to store my games on, so after reading some reviews I went with this one. Been great, works as others have said. So if you need more space on your Xbox one pick this drive up!

    I like the small size of this drive. My old one was so much larger. So far, after a few weeks, it is working as intended to back up my files.

    So small and quiet. Case seems strong and solid. Only a few hours to back up my entire 750gb computer. Always a good experience with Seagate.
