Many also praise its affordability and quiet operation, along with the fast transfer speeds enabled by the USB 3.0 connection. The compact size is another frequently cited positive.

    Bought this for my Xbox one. Plugged it in, answered a question or two on the Xbox, and now everything saves to and plays from this hard drive. I have not noticed the "quicker load times" that I read about but then again, I usually don't pay attention to stuff like that. I just know that I was seriously lacking storage space and was tired of constantly deleting game saves and other lesser played games. Plus Best Buy price matched this. A win win for me.
