    I'm not sure why anyone would go with this versus the slim. Can't notice a difference in transfer speeds. It's bulky and heavy. Plus it has a slight motor noise like a PC.

    Do not use if working with Dish Network. Dish can only handle 2TB and under. Sure it would work with other systems, but not with Dish

    While the VCR is in fast forward and connected to the Roxio device, the image is not able to show up in the computer screen, also this program does not allow to save files away from the C drive; the image been captured is too grainy and poor, and the last but not least, the max time to record is only 3 hours; I have VHS tapes with 8 and 10 hours of recording time. At least for my needs this device falls too short in quality and performance.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Returned it to the store. Tried it on two different computers including a new HP I purchased the following day, and I could not get the software to fully load on either computer. Purchased a "WD My Passport Ultra", and had no problems

    I mainly bought this to attach to my XBOX one. It was very simple to set up. Microsoft made it easy. Just plug the USB in and it asks if you want to configure the hard drive. I have about 25 different games (including big ones like GTA V) on the 2nd hard drive and only use up 16% of the space. .
