    I bought this drive to add space to our Xbox One. So far, it has run like a champ. I haven't really set out to see if it runs faster than the internal, but I have had no issues with it running the games.

    Bought this because my grandson's 1tb was almost full. This works exceptionally well is inexpensive and in my opinion runs better due to the fact that it has its own power source.

    It's great for home use but I am a Systems and Storage Engineer... So I am used to higher transfer rates. But great price for a lot of space.

    Windows setup was easy. Using it for Linux was a little more difficult. The normal partitioning software only supported 2TB size drives. A newer partition software was needed.

    I like this drive because it's flat. So many drive stand up and I don't need it tipping over because a cord catches or something. This drive is perfect for what I need it for.
