"I am really happy with this drive so far. It's relatively fast and extremely portable. I also like the single USB chord rather than the double chord of older models. The dock is another useful feature. The FreeeAgent GO will work with the Xbox 360. The XBox only works with FAT and FAT32 file systems and not the NTFS format which is the default of the FreeeAgent GO, the drive just needs to be reformatted. This is the only down side I can see to Seagate, most other companies offer support utilities for easily converting their drives from one format to another but not Seagate (at least not that I could find). But all in all, a very good product."
