    Best Purchase for my Xbox One - GAME ON!

    Best Purchase for my Xbox One - GAME ON!
    I purchased this storage device for my Xbox One since the factory only gave the console 500GB. It has been the best piece of gaming equipment I have purchased! Gone are the days of shuffling and deleting/installing games to make room for what I am playing with friends at the time. This device has saved me so much time because I do not have to wait for games to install.It is easy to set up by just connecting the USB to the console and a blue light will illuminate on the storage device to indicate it has power. You might have to do a little setup inside the settings of you console, but after that it is GAME ON!
