C’est un tres bon disque dur pour stocker vos jeux précieusement, je ne regrette pas cette achat c’est une bonne investissement pour stocker vos jeux.

I originally purchased the 8tb Black backup hub for use on my media centre, and i have had no trouble with it. Second purchase i bought the 8TB XBOX Game backup hub, white. this is touted as a better unit than the standard black version. The black standard one was about £15 cheaper than the white one, until now i have noticed the black one is more expensive? Strange. Heres where it gets even stranger, i have shucked both the drives from these units, and guess what? They both use exactly the same drive. A Segate ST800DM004. So why the price difference?? I can only assume the interface is different or better on one than the other. if you are buying these for just the drives well there you go, get the cheapest.

8TB version. Have several of these now. Easy connection. Great design. Look very cool, can anyone say Stormtrooper!? Useful light when powered up to show drive is on but not annoyingly over bright. Quiet drive when in operation.

Diese Platte ist eigentlich nur die weiße Version der Seagate STEL8000200. Es soll wohl optisch besser zur XBox passen, aber technisch gibt es keine Unterschiede, es ist intern exakt die gleiche Platte verbaut und Laufgeräusch etc. ist alles gleich. Im Vergleich zu den Seagate Expansion Desktop mit 4 TB oder 5 TB hat diese 8 TB-Platte ein niedrigeres Laufgeräusch, was wohl dem anderen Gehäuse geschuldet ist. Das ist positiv, wie auch die zwei USB-Ports zum Anschluss weiterer Geräte. Denn mit USB 3.0-Ports wird an Mainboards hinten meist etwas gegeizt. Was man wissen muss: Genau wie die Expansion Desktop mit 5TB nutzt diese 8TB-Platte sog. Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR). Die Datenspuren werden überlappend geschrieben, was als Nebenwirkung hat, dass der Controller bei langen Schreibvorgängen irgendwann anfängt, die Datenhäppchen passend umzusortieren. Dadurch kann dann irgendwann die Schreibgeschwindigkeit ins Bodenlose sinken (einstellige MB/s), bis die Daten fertig umsortiert sind. Dies kommt naturgemäß bei hohem Füllstand häufiger vor. Der beste Anwendungsfall ist also das Datengrab, sie also zur Speicherung von Daten zu nutzen, welche selten verändert und hauptsächlich gelesen werden. Wenn man immer wieder viele neue Daten auf die Platte schreiben will, wird man damit eventuell nicht ganz so glücklich. Übrigens, es kann sein, dass die Datenrate erstmal bei sehr niedrigen Werten zu verharren scheint, um die 30, 40 MB/s. Dies ist kein Problem mit der Platte an sich (sie kann weit über 100 MB/s übertragen), sondern man muss ggf. einmal das USB-Kabel aus- und wieder einstecken. Ich hatte das schon mit zwei dieser Platten, dass sie anfangs sehr langsam waren, bis ich einmal das Kabel umgesteckt hatte. Danach lief aber alles einwandfrei schnell und blieb auch so. Wie gesagt bis auf eventuell gelegentliches SMR-Umsortieren.

I paid the extra money for this drive simply because the other drives I looked at are typically half the speed and generally for backup only. This drive works perfectly on my Alienware system for the every day stuff and the fast drives I have are used for everything else, but dont assume from what I said that this drive is horribly slow, it is not! While others here seem to generally comment about the XBOX use for this drive I have successfully used it none stop on my PC for transferring stuff that I dont use all the time (pictures, archive video for editing and compiling etc.) and it has not failed in any way. Singular thing I dont like is the wall wart of a power supply that they have. But when you turn off the PC this drive turns off automatically too so its not really a pain. This drive is USB 2 & 3 compatible and I use mine with USB 3 which as most will know adds a far greater transfer rate. Typically I get about 200Mb speeds or thereabouts (it varies on what the drive is loaded with) and the free space in Windows 10 is in reality about 7.2 Terabytes of real storage. Highly recommended compared to other similarly priced stuff and some of the WD drives I looked at cost 1/3 more for USB2... this was by far the best choice for me and I dont care whether it says Xbox on the cover or whether it says peanuts :). Nice in white too, and I also like the USB connectors on the front of the unit for connecting other devices as I seem fit. Its certainly useful for a PC user and it works fine on my XBOX (latest version too, which I tried before using the drive on my PC which was its real purpose of use.

La velocità non è quella di un ssd ma la capienza è tanta, lo uso come immagazzinamento di dati e per ora sembra abbastanza buono

Ho avuto con mio enorme stupore inizialmente qualche problema nel farlo riconoscere al mio xbox one x, ma staccando e riattaccando il cavo in dotazione con le diverse porte USB alla fine lo ha visto ed ha avviato una semplice procedura di formattazione dove con un paio di passaggi sono stato pronto a trasferire buona parte dei dati che avevo sullhdd interno ormai saturo. Ho anche scaricato una cinquantina circa di giochi col game pass e sia in fase di copiatura che di download non mi ha mai dato alcun problema. Coi giochi si comporta egregiamente risultando velocissimo, forse anche meglio dellhard disk originale interno con caricamenti e salvataggi super rapidi. 4 gb infine garantiscono per quanto mi riguarda un investimento per il futuro garantendomi tutto lo spazio necessario senza più pensieri. Esteticamente si presenta compatto, con il logo xbox ed un colore bianco molto gradevole che si sposa bene nel caso di mobili chiari in salotto (peccato la console esista solo nera al momento).

Doesnt allow me to play most of my Series X compatable games on it. Was really hoping to not have to drop an extra $100 or so for the expansion card, but it seems like thats the case.

had it for 9 months on xbox one then plugged it into series x for another year i had over 2tb of games installed that i now have to redownload good job save files are in the cloud so lasted like 20 months now xbox cant detect it tried different usb ports new wires even in my pc no luck so gotta spend £80 for another one going with a different brand this time took it apart and took side case off pc n plugged drive in directly n nothing so ye its drive itself thats dead not connections was expecting to get more out of it
