Pros

I have it setup for my xbox one and download all my games on it. No hassle, just a good solid hard drive! On large file copies, i see ~75-120 mbytes/sec transfer rates which is on-par for a disk that uses smr. It hooks up perfectly to my mecool km2 an...  Read More

The price point is what really made me purchase this one over anything else. It's not only all the good stuff it's promised to be. Arrived when promised. Can't ask for better.



Cons

    I dont know why this drive has bad ratings


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Given that this would be constantly connected to this computer i enabled the automatic indexing of the drive in its properties


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So if this is going to be connected to a desktop pc constantly i would recommend enabling indexing


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But it is not something you want to enable if you will be disconnecting it from the computer


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Since if windows indexing service is turned on windows may not allow the removal of the external drive since it causes windows to constantly watch the drive


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I cant say the same for the western digital red nas drive i purchased for the same purpose that failed in less than a week


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My digital storage needs are ridiculous


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My 6tb external drive has already got about 1tb used up
