Store edited photos, videos, and games on this 3.5-inch Western Digital hard drive. It has dynamic cache for optimizing allocation between reads and writes, and there's plenty of space to store files with its 4TB capacity.

It was definitely in the box
on September 22, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Upon opening the packaging I was dismayed that all there was inside was a plastic bag. Luckily I dug deeper and found the hard drive inside that bag. So, you get a hard drive, a box, some plastic, and a free bag. The hard drive worked just fine, but the free bag just made for some extra purchase. 10 stars.

It burns discs

Verified Purchase:Yes
After opening the box I found that the burner was, in fact, inside. After that great start I found that it did indeed plug in via USB. From there it was a literal cavalcade of DVD burning activities, for work and pleasure. 10 stars out of 5! Works especially well with blank media.

5 port hub - can't go wrong

Verified Purchase:Yes
After checking the number of ports on this device I can confirm that it definitely has 5. Not 4. Not 6. But 5. So in that respect it does exactly what it claims on the box.

Hardly worth the price.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Honestly, most devices do what this does, but this one costs way more. I bought it for a fanboy... I'm an IT tech so I wouldn't buy this overpriced rubbish when I can buy a small form factor PC that does the exact same thing (plus more) for the same price.

It is definitely a hard drive
on July 28, 2017
Posted by: MechGorilla
Verified Purchase:Yes
Upon opening the box I was relieved to see a hard drive within. When I took it out, there were no sharp edges, and all of the cords plugged in easily. The range of colors that the unit comes in is limited which is disappointing, but for this price you can't complain.

It's definitely a movie
on June 30, 2017
Posted by: MechGorilla
Verified Purchase:Yes
I popped the disc in and it played so it definitely satisfies on that front. The disc was the correct size and the box opened fine. My one complaint was how tight the plastic was and when I opened it, it broke into several pieces. But the disc was definitely inside the box and was made of quality plastic. Overall very satisfied.

Not bad for the price
on January 23, 2017
Posted by: MechGorilla
Verified Purchase:Yes
This camera is not bad - it has some decent quality, but the problem is the same as a lot of modern peripherals - the software. Using an app on your phone to edit videos is cheap, and appeals to the 1% of users of this who wouldn't have a computer. Items in the instructions aren't in the box such as the adapter to make it attach to tripods etc. I found it hard to figure out how to record it "up" (it's 360 all around) when pointing in a direction... most of my videos came out lopsided. Even looking at them in the app you spin them around in a fish eye view and it isn't entirely intuitive. But when you get the hang of it, it's not bad. You can have fun with it.

It is definitely a charge station
on December 30, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
It is a station. It charges things. Well, not things... just a 3DS XL. It does what you expect. I was hoping it would also expand the internal memory, but no... it just charges. So in that regard it is a success.

Compared to the charger from Nintendo, how well does this charging dock work? How long is the cable?

It's as long as a hypothetical answer for space travel, and shorter than an infinite line of mice. However, it charges as well as any other thing.

Does it work only with 120 V?

I think it also works with the experimental 25,000V adapters available in Northern Australia.

Does this work with the standard 3ds xl?

Yes, that's why it says so on the box.
