Customers are pleased with the ample storage space this hard drive provides for their Xbox consoles, as well as its ease of setup and use. Many appreciate the inclusion of a green LED light that matches their Xbox console. However, some customers experienced compatibility issues with certain games, particularly those optimized for newer Xbox systems. The drive's functionality is largely dependent on the game being played.

Disappointed that you CAN NOT play games off the game drive, but you can store your games and transfer to system when you want to play. Totally annoying if you are playing a game with a lot of content packs. After having it for three days ive decided to keep it, for me it only takes minutes to transfer to the system.

So far love it, glows beautiful green when Xbox series x on. Disappointed doesn't use new faster speeds required for newer Xboxs series consoles/games but can still be used to play any Xbox games made for Xbox one to Xbox x speeds. Was a good buy with USB 3.2 speeds. Don't get full 8TB but like any external storage you lose some, get 7.3 TB of storage

It's a must have for your Xbox Series. Please note, that Xbox Series X games must be transferred from HD onto the Internal SSD for you to play them.

Its so easy to use! I will say tho you can only choose to use it for games; or media and photos together. If youre a gamer like me then get it for games. If youre a media person for PC or xbox media too, get it for media &photos. So choose wisely

Very fast external harddrive. The ssd are definitely faster but this works great for my Xbox. Especially with the new feature of having to be on internal harddrive it makes it transfer over games quickly within minutes.

I was very excited to get this to go with my Xbox One X and it would have been a 5 star rating if the rubber feet didn’t easily come off so buyer beware about that. Other than that having 8tb is amazing
