I purchased this to provide extra storage for my Xbox One. It's small form factor and simple plug and play functionality made it perfect. The Xbox recognized it instantly and formatted it without problems. Now I can store 3x the number of games as before. I imagine it would work just as well with a PC.

When I purchased this product I was hoping to be able to move it between devices, however it doesn't seem to be all that portable. Also, it seemed to interfere with the performance of my computer. As soon as I disconnected it, most of my computer problems went away.

GARBAGE

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Had this device for 3 months, used MAYBE 10 times, never bumped and barely even moved... out of nowhere started the dreaded CLICK and was not recognized by windows desktop... brought to Best Buy and Western Digital and both confirmed it was dead and if I wanted my files back I'd have to pay to have them extracted
Did some investigating and this is a VERY COMMON issue with this device; Lost files that I've kept for 10+ years. I guess thankfully they were just memories and not financial records; Western Digital's warranty service will not pay to have the files recovered but will replace your garbage with refurbished garbage.
Don't be cheap like me -- go with a more expensive, more reliable SSD and save yourself the headache.
