    These are great drives. For several years the 8TB WD HDDs have been my basic workhorse for storage. I've got a dozen of them (remember for every active drive, you have to have another drive to back it up). I definitely recommended them.

    It works as it should and it's not too noisy. Most of this brand of HDD enclosures have Western Digital Red drives in them which tend to be a lot more expensive without the enclosure because they're used in NAS setups. So they're very high quality drives considering a lot of companies put cheap drives in their enclosures which tend to fail rather quickly.

    Got this for my xbox one x

    Yea it totally works and I have over 30 games installed on it and its still not 30% full but if you leave your xbox in quick start mode (not power save mode) after a while something happens where the HD looses its connection to the xbox on start up and it will not see the HD and will tell you that you need to install the game again (don't do this or you do have to go through the whole installation again). If this happens I just power down my xbox and the HD and then power both on and it works again. It only does this once in a while so its not that big of a deal but it still is an issue. If you do start a install again and then power down, you still have to re-install the game so keep that in mind. I have also noticed that the HD will only work if it is plugged into the port that it started with, if you move it to another USB port on the xbox one x it will not see it (strange but perhaps its only my xbox one x that is doing that). 8TB IS Awesome though so I would recommend this for Xbox one X.
