    Bought this incase I need a back up. I think it was on sale at the time. I have my stuff saved on the internet but if there's ever a problem with that I have a second location. Its 5TB so you'll probably never run out room any time soon.

    I use these as Xbox storage for downloaded games. Not sure why there truly is a difference as you can usually pick these up for less than the Xbox branded storage devices. Good buy for any reason, but this is just one.

    I don’t use this for dynamic read/write storage. It is used for my extensive media collection where I only need to read files once they are stored. Works great for that — plenty of bandwidth to stream over my home network. Got it on sale at BB for under $20/TB.

    Bought this to back up all of my family photos and movies over the years that had gathered on various hard drives. Set up easy, partitioned it and created separate volumes for pics and videos. Wish it would've packed with a USB-C cable.
