    Plug, and play with my PS 4 pro. I don't like boxes, or disks hanging around. So now I download almost all my games. It looks nice, sitting in the background , waiting to do it's job. You do have to plug it into a pad port, so you sacrifice a player port. If you want you can purchase a multi usb port adapter. I have had no issues, even when I had lost power situations, or a cold boot. it checks itself, and goes back to work. No worries! Love it!

    It is fast, and ready to use out of the box. it comes with a USB and power cable too. Considerably more durable than other make,.is a hard deal to pass up when it comes to massive amounts of storage for cheap. Was instantly recognized by windows and received no errors

    I have two of these, bought the second because the first is filled. Usb 3 make it way faster than usb 2. I ended up reformatting it for linux (ext4) but it comes ready for windows

    This offers a great deal of storage at a wonderful price point. I've purchased two and use them in addition to my pc to store files such as photos and have the second as a backup.

    nas level drive without the nas level price. Right now I'm using it as an external storage, but nice to know I can break it open and re-purpose it for a nas. Sale price was excellent.

    Plenty of storage space and is actually rather quiet when its in operation.. Kind of a cheap plastic case for the drive though, it doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. But its easy to just plug in and let it do its job.

    I can't speak for the quality of the USB enclosure since I shucked this drive the minute I got home with it, but the drive inside was a white label drive and works quite well in my NAS.

    When this goes on sale, it's a steal. I got it for $160 although it's been lower. Mine happened to have a WD red NAS drive inside with 256mb cache! Very happy w the performance.
