Review: Great, just give it a minute if putting on a Router - EDIT: Added imge as promised. Note, the flash is on) I had lots of media stored on a 2tb drive that was running out of space. I bought this for prime day sale despite the reviews saying it died quickly on them. I just couldn't beat the price. I am here to gladly say that it has been running flawlessly and silently (noise would indicate dying). I use a Linksys EA9500 V2 Smart Wifi Router. It did not recognize the drive at first. I reformatted it and still no change. I left it in for an hour and still no change. I then rebooted the router and it recognized only 2 TBs. After waiting another hour it then recognized all 5TBs and instantly recognizes all 5 in the event its unplugged, router loses power Etc. Looking into the specs, this hard drive was stated to not even be compatible to be used on a router as DLNA, but despite the claims, it works great and looks amazing in Skyblue brushed metal. I'll try to edit this by adding an image when I get a chance
Review: Great for an Xbox external hard drive - I use it for my Xbox as an external hard drive it holds a lot of games and I've not had an issue with it disconnecting or not registering with my Xbox I like the fact that I can move it from one state to another when I go to Arizona to visit friends and family or just taking it to a friend's house 4 all night gaming sessions something and use it there takes up like zero space I set mine right on my Xbox One on the opposite side of the fans make a little noise haven't had a problem with overheating on either the hard drive or my Xbox very satisfied

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it compatible with Windows Vista?**
A: windows 7 compatible

**Q: anyone experience disk not ejected properly issue?  I use MacBook pro 2019, didn't reconfigure, if need to, pls show me how to reconfigure for mac.**
A: Hello, 

In your situation, we would suggest the following:

• Try connecting the drive to another port on the computer (ensure it’s connected to a port directly).
• You may also try using a different cable.
• Try connecting the drive to another computer to see how it reacts.

Performing these steps can rule out a problem with the drive itself. If the issue persists, please create a case with our technical support team, so we can further investigate and explore available options:

**Q: Will this work with an iPad**
A: It works perfectly with my iPad Pro 3rd generation running iPad OS13. It would be better if you also use an iPad friendly (USB C) adapter to allow the iPad to be at a constant charged while having said device plugged in.

**Q: Will this work with ipad 11 pro 2020**
A: just needs a USB 3.0 port, should be fine. Also make sure it’s formatted for Mac.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lots of space, little effort
*by J***Y on December 9, 2019*

I picked up this lovely little device to expand the capacity of our Xbox One S 1TB, which was in immediate jeopardy of running out of space. Setup was quick and easy (even though it's not *specifically* marketed as a game console-designated external drive). Performs well, thanks to the speedy USB 3.0 interface. I haven't noticed any lag or slowdowns when loading data from it. All in all, I couldn't be happier with it.
