It worked really well for the data warehouse

I found out about this item type from a person who used it on YouTube, he helped me choose one of them, but I settled on this one, not for this one, because it is too expensive anyway, it worked like a charm.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Doubt

My Xbox One game data is corrupted

I like the storage for the price but it keeps corrupting my Xbox One game data. I have to constantly uninstall and reinstall games. Thank goodness my current progress is saved via the cloud and only my games get corrupted.

Pros
  • Fast change
Cons
  • Almost never

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Unreliable. Rather spend a little more money for a better product.

Used for Xbox One. It was great for a few months. Then the problems started. Starting with crunches and clicks. Quiet at first, relatively loud over time, until it finally got unbearably loud even when the Xbox was switched off. I reversed his position and the noise stopped. Then it started again with a soft faint noise, gradually getting louder, when I put it in the first position it was still loud. Then the real problems started. PERMANENT damage to my files. Let me know that I've erasedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • I like it so far
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

This is done without instructions.

Now that I've paid my computer guy to show me how to use it, I don't mind. I've been sitting here for days trying to figure out what to do after I plug it in. It is assumed that you know exactly what to do. Some will and some won't. If you're like me you need someone to show you how to transfer your files to a hard drive and properly eject a hard drive.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Don't remind me

Not Working - Computers & Accessories

I received this hard drive as a backup but it still doesn't work: after I connected it to my laptop the hard drive started clicking as if trying to turn, but it did not stand up. I also couldn't see it in my Disk Utility or anywhere else. Tried on another laptop - same clicks. To return.

Pros
  • GOLS Certified
Cons
  • Only available in Black

120GB is too small for 2019-2020, please lower the price

120GB is too small for 2019-2020 when an average smartphone takes 5-15MB photos. Please save yourself the headache and buy a hard drive that is at least 500GB; like bigger.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Almost everything is

Works great for my xbox one x

It's a bit heavy but light at the same time very strong hard drive no problem. I use it for my Xbox One x and plugged it in and it runs smooth and has plenty of storage. I would buy it again if I had to buy one again so I would definitely recommend it.

Pros
  • speakerphone
Cons
  • Very expensive

It's been 6 months and it's still working

Seems to be working fine. I have 320GB. I reformatted to change the drive name. He had a big name. I'm happy with it so far. I had to back up about 250GB of data. good work. fast data transfer. I'm so happy I went back to get another one before Trump puts an inch on it.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • I don't have much to complain about, everything is fine

Works great so far!

Like. Easy to use, seems to fit more than enough for what I need it for. I used it to move old photos/videos/documents from my old laptop to my new one. Super quick and easy to use for me for not that much money.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Speed
