Great hard drive. No problems so far. Software is a little hard to figure out at first, but once you do it's not bad.

I have always been a fan of the Western Digital drives and this one makes the 6th in my collection. I have always preferred firewire over usb because of the ability to connected one to the other instead of take up additional usb ports, but these usb3 drives are super fast so it's worth the port space.

I was going to buy the 4TB version for the quicker load times on my bigger games, not to mention the much needed extra memory, but the 5TB was on sale. Great purchase, works perfect. It does take some time for the Xbox to recognize the hard drive but once it does it is ready to go.
