Overall, I was pleased with the Metal 2TB My Passport Ultra. However, it doesn't save my games, those are saved to the Xbox, so no transferring current data. Best yet, I could take my device to other people's homes and hook it up to play the games on the device, so it made porting material very cool. Accessing material on it was a breeze with little downtime and there were no issues playing the games I loaded onto it both for regular play and online games. It also allowed me to move games onto the device very quickly. After that, the device recognized to use the Passport first when I downloaded new games rather than filling up my primary drive first. The Xbox took only a minute to recognize it and utilize it as storage through the options, so no hefty setup phase. Since we're using it on a console, I cleared it with a format and plugged it right in as a storage unit.

Beyond that outlet and the light on the side, that all there is to the case, keeping it pretty minimalistic. The device doesn't require a power outlet, it runs off the power distributed from the micro USB link, which saves on cords and power consumption to keep it awake. The metal design for this one is kind of interesting, it doesn't really add to the efficiency like with cooldown or protection, it's mainly here for looks. Considering you're working with a large drive, they managed to make this about as small as they could while making it a powerful device. Design-wise, this is a nice, sleek, compact model that fits well wherever you need it.
