I was simply able to plug the drive in and start using it, The drive itself woks fine. If you are using an older version of WD Backup Software, you are better off uninstalling the old version and downloading the latest version from the website. Also of note is the WD Backup software status bar is slow to update if you are copying a lot of data, such as when you are initially populating the disk. Thus, simply be patient. II thought something was wrong, but the status bar just took a long time to show me that it was working.

I bought this in order to expand storage for the XBOX One and so far it works great. Just plug it in and the XBOX recognized it and then asked if I wanted to use it to install games on to it. Easy setup.

The back up disk is small enough to avoid being clunky yet big enough to be durable. The storage capacity is more than sufficient. Nice product.
