    Plenty of storage for XBox One storage. Good bang for the buck. Of course this would be good for PC storage, too.

    Provides the storage capacity for my backup off of Norton. Also directories that I save as individual directories for immediate access without having to access as part of the Norton system or using a Cloud service.

    Great bang for the buck if you need to move a decent amount of data around. Nice that it's USB 3. Will probably be the last external non-solid state drive I buy.

    Purchased to keep the HDD free in the new series X. I’ve loaded every Call of Duty game made (except for one) on this 5TB drive with plenty of room left to spare for my other games. The only issue I’ve had is that when I loaded Cold War (for the series X) the Xbox told me it’s best to load it onto the internal HDD for optimal performance rather than the external HDD. It did allow me the option to load it onto the external HDD, but I went with what was recommended .

    This is my second time purchasing this portable hard drive. My first one was nearing capacity so I took advantage of a sale price. It holds a lot of files (digital designer) and doesn’t radiate heat. Excellent purchase.

    Purchased this hard drive to backup my PC and was pleased with it's performance. While obviously nowhere near as fast as an SSD, I was able to copy multiple file batches with them all running about 30mb/s. Could as for much for with a mechanical hard drive. It's small, portable and Best Buy had it down to $95 on sale, couldn't pass up on that.

    The external hard drive was easy for my 11-year-old to set up on his gaming laptop. The price, considering the storage capacity, was a win for me. Good investment.

    Solid hard drive that I got for a good price on sale. Good storage, doesn't run slowly, not too big. One complaint: the port connecting to the hard drive itself seems easy to bend, but not a deal breaker by any means.
