Easy memory expansion for Xbox
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I picked this up when I was shopping for more memory for my Xbox One. I got a 5TB for my One, but I thought "Why not get some more memory for my 360?" 1TB is 4 times my original 360's capacity and it was extremely easy to use. The price made it easy as well. Now I can take advantage of all the 360 titles that go on sale on XBL every week without worrying about running out of space. I've got every game I've ever purchased digitally on it right now and it's still got around 600GB left, plus I still have my original 250GB hard drive if I ever needed it. Easy to use at a good price. This would also work for Xbox One, but the games for that system are so massive that it made more sense to go with a 5TB. The games for 360 are much smaller so you can get by with an inexpensive 1TB.

Extra Storage for XBOX One

Needed more room to store games on an XBOX One. Connected the HD to the XB1 and it was recognized immediately. Very inexpensive and easy way to significantly upgrade the XB1.

This was worth every penny, especially at $59.99 seeing it was $40.00 off. It was an easy install and registering it to get all of it's functionality was even easier. I would encourage all who are looking for an external hard drive to not hesitate to purchase this one.

I ordered the harddrive because I don't like storing media in my laptop. When it arrived, I was surprised by it's small size. It's super lightweight, easily portable, copies data super fast and is silent.
I love this hard drive. A big Thumbs up.

Great external hard drive

Got this external hard drive for Christmas. It does exactly what I wanted it for. I am able to send all my files directly to the drive. The only thing is the drive is smaller than I expected, but does not effect the performance.

Technology amazes me

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I remember when my dad bought our first PC and it had a 200 megabyte harddrive. Now you can get a terabyte and it's tiny as heck. Anyway, I'm buying this cos' I had a 1TB larger sized (physically) Seagate that failed, and need some more space again. I still have a 500 gig passport that's going strong, although I don't use it constantly. I guess it's always good to back things up, but I never do. Now I don't have an excuse, but I probably still won't. Oh well. It's all ones and zeros.

Can't beat the price

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Got 1 TB of storage for $55! Quick transfer speeds. Perfect as a back up drive or for storing infrequently used files. It's a small, sleek package. Feels sturdy and should last a long time w/ proper care. Only concern is the connection plug into the device itself. I have read some reviews that it is a weak weld and may become depressed into the device if pushed too hard. Just handle w/ care and it shouldn't be an issue.

WD My Passport Gets The Job Done
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Small and compact on the outside, but inside is a hard drive large enough to hold photos, videos, music and whatever else you like. You can use the included backup software, or use the drive the way I do, transferring the files manually from my computer to the Passport. I've been buying My Passport external drives for years, and have yet to be disappointed with their performance.

I bought this while it was on sale but even when not on sale it is completely worth it. I use it for music and movie downloads (legally of course). I am able to store everything I need to for on the go, travel and more. It's an amazing hard drive and has the space I need for what I got. I recommend this product and the 2TB and higher if you need more space.

Great little back up drive!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Good back up drive that is quick, relatively small and works well! The first time I backed up my computer it took a little white getting used to (I have a Mac and had to re-format it), but after that I connected it to my Time Machine and it updates automatically when plugged in. For this price, you can't beat it!

Been using this for about a month, and have connected it to several different computers, used as a transfer drive and as a backup. Does both well. I researched the other devices in this price range and decided on this item against several others. I have not regretted the decision.
The security software works well and intuitively, though it did encounter an error when updating. I did not at all notice any issues after it did so.

With prices going down and capacity going up, this drive makes for an easy to use backup storage device. With USB 3.0, it's faster than a few of my older devices and will replace the desk unit I use to backup my videos.

I've purchased a few of these drives and they've been champions. They're small, fast, bus powered (no external power required), easy to pack up a large amount of data and ship off to vendors. These are super handy.

This was my first External Hard drive and found it extremely easy to use. It's size is great in that it hides nicely behind my laptop and blends right in. It is nice and light weight so I take it with me as well.
