Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Optimized Collective Minds XS Media Hub for Xbox One by Andy Syla

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It just works! for Xbox One

I wanted something like a tower with my 2 hard drives to take up less shelf space and I got what I needed! You can connect 1 3.5" 7200 hard drive to a second 2.5" SSD or SSD bracket on Xbox One X or One S, or 2 2.5" hard drives to a 3.5" -Use shaft adapter. Works great, but you'll have to reformat the drives as settings change from case to case! It comes with 2 5010 fans installed to keep the system cool, but I wanted some faster fans in the case to keep the system airflow and I raised the footrests a bit to allow more airflow from below enable. It's somewhat malleable if you want to remove the plastic filter and add mesh, but it depends on how you're modding, so adding thicker footpads worked for me. Just remember to check for dust from time to time and this media center is the best entertainment I've ever seen. External power keeps the baby going, so don't worry about Xbox having to reformat the external drive like the old media center hub that came out years ago.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • When in doubt
