    One thing to note is that these is not a "portable" HDD. It requires its own power cable. I knew that going in, but just wanted other people to know that. It's been great so far, but it does make a worrying grinding noise once in a while.

    Bought as an external hard drive for my xbox one x and I love it! Now my xbox doesn’t have to get bogged down with games or downloads on the console, and I don’t have to worry about running out of space! I have downloaded roughly at least 200 games and still have around 10 TB of storage. The product itself takes up around 1 TB of space so you’re looking at 11 TB of usable storage. So for all of those games I only used 1 TB of storage. Super satisfied!

    I bought this because another drive I had from the same company failed, so you’d think I’d buy from a different company, but I’ve also had probably a dozen of them over the last 15 years and it was the only time it ever failed, and I was able to recover the data after purchasing a “cracking” software online. Anyway, that’s the only reason I don’t give it 5 stars. This specific item has not failed and I don’t expect it to!

    I bought two of these units. I couldn't get them to work. I went online and noticed that there are lots of defects. I returned the two units and got two of the same type only since they were on sale and a very good price. The two replacements worked perfectly. So, the moral of this story is to make sure they work as soon as you get them. I sometimes buy a drive knowing I'll need it sooner or later and in this case, that would have been very bad. Try it and test it as soon as you buy it. By the way, I am very happy with these so far. I plugged them in and they are working great.
