    Only reason didn't keep this item is because doesn't help save on PS4. Otherwise not a huge hard drive and wasn't a bad price for the storage. Would easily buy again.

    I use this product as an external hard drive for my XBox One. The drive is fast - so this external drive makes me feel as if I was loading from my Xbox One internal drive. I had anticipated a "slow down" with the external drive - so I am happy that I feel as if the external drive is as fast, if not faster, than XBox's internal drive.

    Bought it to download heaps of photos from my old Mac before getting a new computer. Wasn't as easy to use as I expected, but it was finally do-able. I would probably just use a few thumb drives next time, but this is alright.

    It's smaller but I miss the old rotating wheel thingy on my old Nano version. I could replay and do other functions without looking at a touch screen. Otherwise it's still a cool little mp3 player. I guess I'm an old school guy!
