It's a Red with 256 cache

For XBox external -G2G
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so good. It’s my second easystore drive and this one has proved as “easy” as the last. We’ll see about longevity but my old one is going strong still two years later. XBox One immediately recognized and setup drive including formatting. Very please with purchase thus far.

Great drive, massive storage

Lots of storage for a good price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was looking for a single-drive storage solution. For the price, this was terrific. There may be faster options out there, but if you just need raw storage, this is a good choice.
