    My favorite console of the current generation. Fast start up is a plus. Storage capacity isn't the best, but that's what they make external drives for.

    Great system for a good price. Definitely needs the 1tb added plug in but especially with the scarcity of the x series, this a great option.

    Amazing Redesigned! The fan is ever quiet, I can't tell if it's turning or not. It doesn't get hot by any means, even night-time of playing.
