Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Usb plug/cable is a nice feature. Not too long of a cord but for me, that's fine.

"i use it for my xbox one for my heavily used games to get faster loading times and it works wonderfully" features an attached usb dongle that connects flush with the drive when stored. Works with xbox one.

It’s slim and small enough to fit in my small compartments of my backpack. Downfall is it's a little small but that's in the description 500g for a great price. It is kind of small and can be easily misplaced so it's best to store it somewhere safe.

Cons

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. The weakest part of it is the permanently attached cable which will fail. The production process is probably inconsistent.

If there is a problem with the cord your data and device become unusable

As linux will then mount the drive linux may then be used to reformat it with the file system of your choice

Price

Very portable and light weight and the price was good

And i was lucky enough to catch this at a very good price on amazon

Packaging/appearance

1010 works right out of the box

Since you dont see it hanging off the back the color doesnt matter

Competitiveness

In fact it is so good that i also purchased a 1tb

It is good value for a 1 tb usb3 disk

I fixed mine by using another systems windows10 format drive function which offers only two file systems exfat and ntfs

I got a 500gb version just to have for an inbetween drive
