However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
- Interface(s): USB 2.0 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Q: Can you transfer new files weekly to this external hard drive
A: No, it will not duplicate if the file is in the same name. It will give you an option if you want to overwritten the file or keep both of the file.

A: This product can have multiple partitions made to be formatted for use with Mac and Windows on their respective partitions.
Q: Xbox one
A: Yes, this hard drive can be formatted to work with an Xbox One.
A: This question is written without sufficient information, but you can check the following. Check your Bios / Setup Configuration to see if you have the USB capability, and if so is it turned ON/OFF. Also, you need to state your OS. Does your Operation System have the ability to auto-detect a USB device when it is inserted? Is this feature turned ON/OFF? Poorly written question / post. No one can answer this as it is written, and person needs to check the Bios Setup, and OS Capabilities.
A: I'm thinking most likely not because an external drive is usually only used for saving documents, photos, videos, etc. Internal drives are designed with active folders that actively connect directly with the internal computer system (BIOS, motherboard, etc.). The best thing would be to get a new internal drive. However, be sure to save all documents, photos, videos, etc. to any external drives or USB thumb drives. Also I've tried doing the same thing and it didn't work.
A: Depending on how much memory is needed, a simple thumb drive could work. Otherwise a 2+ TB drive would be a great investment. There are other external drives with more memory and are portable but they need to be plugged in. The one I have does not need to be plugged in. So it's great to use somewhere else if there's no access to an outlet.
