    You can't go wrong with Western Digital, or a backup drive.

    I needed a decent sized external hard drive to back up my computer. This 4TB WD was reasonably priced and the hard drive size fit my needs. I bought a WD years ago and that one ran very loud when in use. This model is super quiet, I hardly even realize it is on when backing up my machine.

    WD products are always A+ for me. This is plenty of storage for a computer hoarder, such as myself.

    Using this with my Xbox One. Set up was a breeze it's basically plug and play. Haven't had any of the issues some people reported with it not booting. Noticed a nice improvement on game load times when stored on this external drive instead of the Xbox's internal (as expected).
