The picture that is displayed in this reply section is showing the 1 TB version of the drive, for $54.99 (I see what has been done with the comments on the drive. There are four different drive sizes listed. Apparently all comments, made for any of these drives, are combined into one comment section. No matter which size drive you click on, you see the comments for ALL). I would get the 4 TB version, for future expansion capabilities, if I were buying. Yes, it did work but the sequence for attaching the drive is different than normal. If you connect the drive while the Xbox is off, and then turn the Xbox on, the Xbox will not see the drive. You have to plug the drive into the USB port when the Xbox is turned ON, and then the drive will be seen. You then run through a quick install procedure, which is very simple, and you are ready to roll! I am going to buy a 2nd drive, just to have one as backup. The price just dropped $10 bucks, so it is a small incentive. I like the size/look of this drive. I would expect the 1 TB version of this drive to function in the same manner. Just remember that for drives, when it states a drive size, you always get slightly less than what it states, which was why I stated that I would go with the 4 TB drive, over the 1 TB drive. Mater of choice, depending on expected future disk space usage. I like room to grow!One last comment, I have seen statements that the drive fails, after a period of time, which varies. My first thought on this is where is the drive placed. On the top of the Xbox, heat is generated through the top, from vents to keep the Xbox cool. If the drive were to be placed there, heat could take a toll on the drive, over a period of time. For the Xbox and the drive, if they are in an enclosed cabinet, with minimal air circulation, that is not good for either, as the heat generated by the Xbox is then contained within the enclosure area, which is definitely not good. Both the Xbox and the drive need cool air, for long term survival. If you have an audio center, with doors, open the door when using the Xbox. This is also as to why when a computer is stored in a cabinet enclosure/computer rack, you will find fans installed in the cabinet to draw out the warm air. **Q: Is this compatible with Mac OS-X, which versions?** A: It is Monday Jan 25 2021 and I just reformatted with Disk Utility and it is backing up now. I'm using it as a Time Machine Drive. It didn't want to erase on the first pass for some reason, but I unplugged it and plugged it back in and it erased and formatted as Mac OS Extended Journaled. I've had the same thing happen on other drives, but they always work in the end. I'm currently running Catalina 10.15.7 on a 15" MBP. **Q: Is the drive inside compatible with the PS4?** A: Yes the drive inside is compatible with the ps4 that is the exact reason I bought this once installed it's about 1.73 Tb of space. **Q: Will this work for a 2015 Macbook Air?** A: Off the shelf, I do not think it worked with a Mac. You will likely have to reformat it. I wanted it to work with a Mac and a PC, so I reformatted it for ExFAT. This allows me to plug it into both computers without any issue. ## Frequently Bought Together - Seagate Expansion Portable 1 TB External Hard Drive HDD – USB 3.0 for PC Laptop (STEA1000400) - Amazon Basics Hard Black Carrying Case for My Passport Essential External Hard Drive --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/249855193-1tb-black-stea1000400-expansion-portable-external-hard-drive-pc-mac](https://www.desertcart.us/products/249855193-1tb-black-stea1000400-expansion-portable-external-hard-drive-pc-mac) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
