    We were needing extra storage for the xbox one. All we had to do is plug it into the xbox and it autoformatted it for us. Now we have 5 terabytes of extra storage. Very good price compared to ones that were already formatted to the xbox one.

    I looked online before buying this product because I needed at least 4T of space that was less than $200. This product came to my aid and I have been very satisfied with it thus far.
