Simple. Easy. Hello storage.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I honestly think that the toughest part about hooking this up was actually opening the box up. After you plug it just wait a few minutes and it'll give you the option to format it. After you format it you're done and you have so.much more room now to hold whatever you want.
