Unless the quality has changed these are sturdy portable drives. I have several versions of these.

What makes this especially good for Xbox?

What versions are there? I see one labeled gen 1. Is there a gen 2?

I thought these came with a USB-C cabe. It doesn't specify.

It specifies System Requirements and lists game consoles and Win but not Linux.
Isn't it a storage drive that can be used as any other storage drive for anything?

Does it come with software or security?

The last time this came around, it had the same HDD in it the My Passport has in it.

I use these for everything. But the big advantage is they are not as sensitive to movement as a regular HD. Maybe!
Normally you just hook them up and let the XBOX tell you what to do.
Windows 11 exfat or NFTS for your computer.

Interface(s)
Micro-USB Type B

Mine all came with the correct cable.

Interface USB 3.2 Gen 1, Micro B

Looks like the D10s are 7200RPM.

It says:

which honestly I'd rather have almost anything else. Like Mini B. Or obviously C. I think these are all formatted exfat and work in anything. Bunch of marketing.

This is gen 3.2 so it works with? I still haven't snagged a PS5 yet but as an additional external hard drive it's not fast enough still? I know it would most likely still work on my PS4 but in the switch when I do finally land a PS5 these wouldn't work or they would? Everyone tries on the PS5 to do internal nvme that's gen 4 that's why I wonder. This might be different being external or?

Correct. Sony has stated you need a PCI.e Gen 4 M.2 SSD if you want to run games off it. You can put games into 'cold storage' on an external like this.

I have a number of old My Book powered external drives of varying sizes that I use for part of my Plex storage. Short of building a NAS, would this kind of drive be good as a live replacement for those 6+ year old drives?

My intent is to transfer the contents of the older drives before they hit a point where failure is likely and then keep them on hand simply as backups.

Great drive for PS5 and looks good. Took me awhile to get one for $100 so this is a good deal.

Would this work on a Vista powered computer? Not kidding......I just use that computer to store pics, but need more storage capacity.
