My Passport X Review: Expand Your Gaming Storage
If you own an Xbox One, chances are you’re racking up quite a collection of games and getting close to the 500 GB storage limit. There is the option of opening up the console and swapping it out for a larger storage drive, but that takes a lot of time — not to mention that opening up the console could void your warranty.

WD Black 4TB Desktop HDD Review
We got our hands on Western Digital’s flagship High Performance/High Storage HDD, their Black 4TB WD4003FZEX. And boy is it impressive. First things first, let’s get the obvious stuff out of the way: You can buy two forms of storage these days: SSDs and HDDs. SSDs are blazing fast and leave HDDs in the dust performance wise but cost a lot more too, while HDDs are typically slower but come in massive capacities. So obviously the Black doesn’t compare to SSDs in terms of raw performance. It’s strength lies in the performance it shows seen alongside its four freaking terabyte capacity Now, with that out of the way, let’s dig in, shall we? Build Quality The Black is virtually indistinguishable from other WD consumer drives if you ignore the label. Absolutely nothi...
