      I am more interested in techie8055's question below.

    It has been cheaper many times before (I got it for $181 over a year ago)-

    • Does it require external power or does just run off USB?

      • External.

        • Thanks, suspected that was the case

        It's too big to run off USB as it's a 3.5" drive also the back picture is a dead give away 👍

      • Says it runs off mains power.

      Pretty sure you won't see a better deal on a Seagate hub (Xbox or PC) for quite some time.

    Shuckable?

    • It's Seagate, and I don't believe they make any drives with USB direct soldered on, so yeah… pretty sure it would be shuckable

  • CMR?

      Most likely BarraCuda, so SMR.

  • What are the speeds like?

    • 5400rpm. Not the fastest drive but better than nothing lol.

        Currently have an older 4tb portable.

        Would think a gaming drive would be faster

        • 7200rpm should be the standard/minimum imo. With todays tech and the price of ssd's dropping and capacity rising, external drives should be using those….. providing you don't re-write them too many times. But hey, i can wish can't i?? Lol

  • Cheers - hasn't been this cheap for ages. I think it should be the same as the black PC version but happy to be corrected.

  • 7200RPM+ is really the speed this should be if advertised to gamers. I don't buy the marketing.

    Just use for cold storage, but with the advent of cloud gaming for game pass. This is becoming less of a must in NBN areas

  • I've had one of these drives in the past, its decent for gaming with Xbox

    But as i sold my Xbox, i had to reset the drive to NTFS to make it usable as a standard portable hard drive with my windows desktop

  • Price has now increased to $220.33
