    I bought this to replace the harddrive in my ps4. I thought that ps4 was plug and use like the xbox one but it wasnt and was considering returning this product. I eventually did some digging and learned that i could just take the hard drive out the enclosure and use it that way. Over all though i had to go through alot i am satisfied and recomend it for anybody when its on sale.

    Bought the Seagate Backup Plus Slim 2TB for my son who is heading to college so he could download all of his things off our home computer. Easy to use and he loves it. He has actually downloaded what is on the external hard drive to his new computer but is taking the external with him so he can bring files and such home over the holidays. Great product at a great price.

    I had purchased the Xbox One S 500GB model when it was first released. I quickly filled up the internal storage and needed more storage. These were on sale at Best Buy so I picked one up to try it. Couldn't be easier, unbox and plug it into one of the USB inputs..thats it. Nothing to format, plug and play. This thing is so tiny its easily out of sight on my entertainment stand.
