  • Pretty great but slight drawback

    Would have given it 5 stars but there’s two drawbacks. First is, the need to have it connect to a power source. It’s understandable, but nevertheless a slight nuisance. Second, and major drawback, I’ve recently had issues where it disconnects from my Xbox without having been touched. Have had to hard reset my Xbox every time, unplug and plug back the hard drive, and at least once it didn’t work so had to repeat process

    ...so far so good. It's a big size in memory, and not too large in physical size. It's just, unfortunately, running into the problem all memory units have: the price is too high. One day, it'll be in a good range, but at that point, we'll need LARGER sizes. It is what it is.

    Did not shuck the drive to find out if it's a RED; It's been on for a month and worked just fine. Performance is also as expected.
