Excellent upgrade for Xbox one x
||Posted .Basically what the one x is missing park your current play title in this little guy and experience faster load times. I’ve also noticed a reduction in fan noise from the console from this guy handling the hard drive duty but it will get hot so have in well ventilated area or buy a small usb case fan like I did to keep it cool. Excellent product

Love this
||Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.SSD’s are a bit pricey but this is definitely worth the money. The difference in load times when compared to normal storage devices are incomparable. This SSD is noticeably faster.

Q: Questiondoes this work with xbox one s?
Asked by majes.
- A:Answer Yes, but there is a catch. You can store games on it just like for the Xbox One however, if you use this one not the new Seagate one that is made for the series X/S the games will not be optimized like they should for that newer console. Hope this helps.

Q: QuestionWill it improve cd performance and graphics
Asked by BrashSpoon6396.
- A:Answer no. it improves loading time, (as well as loading textures faster, making the game look smoother and nicer) but it wont improve graphics. its an ssd card, not graphics card. it also gives you 500 gigabytes of storage.

Q: QuestionDoes this work with the next gen consoles?
Asked by Ems7129.
- A:Answer Only for old Xbox One games, or as "backup" drive (to avoid having to redownload next-gen games) that requires you to transfer whatever game on this you want to play to the main internal drive in the Xbox first.

Q: QuestionCan you run games from this? The cd drive on our Xbox one only works about half the time, I need a solution... will this work?
Asked by NewGamer.
- A:Answer Yes, you can run games from this drive. I have several bigger games on this drive and everything loads and buffers alot faster and more clearer.

Q: QuestionWill this worl on Laptop pc games?
Asked by Mutant67.
- A:Answer If your laptop's USB ports don't send enough energy, especially when its unplugged from the wall, that could be an issue. There are cheap little "Y" cables you can find online that will plug into two USB ports on your laptop simultaneously, combining their electrical power (but not speed), but the third plug that goes into your hard drive might not match. It also might take a decent hit on battery life on your laptop.
