    I have a WD backup drive already and needed a second drive. I like the portable units that don’t need a power supply. It is small and quite. The price was great too.

    With some of the Xbox games approaching 100GB in size, the internal !TB storage in the One X fills up quickly. The WD External HD provided a simple and easy solution. Just plug it in to the USB port and answer one question on how you want to use it (for game storage) and you're good to go.
