    I bought this to go with my Xbox One X since I already had a fairly large game library and the enhanced game file sizes are very big. I love having the extra space, but when the console is off (low power state) the external hard drive continues to cycle which is very noisy. I unplug the USB drive when my console is off because of the noise.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

  • Overall easy to use
