I needed an expansion to my XBox One. It plugs right in, XBox accepts it, formats it, and transfer data as expected. I usually don't buy anything other than Western Digital for hard drives, but the price was great for the amount of storage. The drive is rather large for an external hard drive, but I didn't buy it for aesthetics. It's hidden in a cabinet. It works. That's all I care about; and not breaking the bank.

I am always running out of space and so I always check out Best Buy and B&H to see what's on sale and lo and behold I found this Seagate Expansion 3TB external USB 3.0 hard drive. The price was just a little over a hundred and I've purchased other Seagate products and they have been pretty good and lasted for year. I am so far pretty satisfied with my purchase.

I bought this hard drive for my son's best friend before he left for college. This was the best gift ever as he was able to transfer all his files from his desktop to the external hard drive without any hassles. We love technology when it works!

I have been using a Seagate external hard drive for my data files (my new computer has a limited amount of flash storage and NO internal hard drive) for about one month. The EHD takes up about five square inches of space under my monitor, and one USB port. The drive was delivered promptly at no additional charge. Hard drives tend to fail either soon after purchase or after some years of use. This drive has no issues, which is what I want. I back up the files to a second or third external drive daily.

This is a great addition to my collection for my xbox, being limited on space hurts when you collect so many games and with this I don't have to worry as much about space now.

I bought this to back up files, music & pictures on my computer and it solved that problem greatly. After backing up my computer I have plenty of space left on my hard drive for more backup's.

I purchased this external drive when my last one stopped working, it is the exact same one from the last time . The only reason I decided to try again is that this drive is very easy to use just plug in and go to work . The storage space is great and the download time is pretty good I also like the secure options on it and it is very easy to retrieve my files no problems yet on this one . I purchased this one from Best Buy because they had the best price which is always the case , they always beat the competitors hands down!

I bought this to replace an older and much slower external drive. I like the simplicity of just plugging it in and connecting the power and your ready to go.

This drive is HUGE!
This is a nice small, large capacity external hard drive that is perfect for storing more than what your computer or xBox can hold.
I bought this specifically for use with my xBox One and it performs flawlessly. Easy to set up too!

I wanted storage to backup my wedding photos, music and video games. I did a lot of research and noticed the external hard drive had a pretty good amount of storage space a really good price. Usually that means it is too good to be true but it has been fantastic. There is so much storage that I have barely made a dent in my storage. Definitely a must buy if you are in need of an affordable external hard drive.
