    SSD as Capture Location Works

    SSD as Capture Location Works
    I was looking to replace the mechanical HDD that I use to capture game clips and gameplay on my Xbox Series X as that drive started clicking, I figured the read/write head somehow became damaged. This wonderful little SSD drive popped up as an ad on my Facebook feed, so I decided to try it.I already had a 1 TB USB SSD, but somehow that did not work even though the throughput speed was fairly fast (1,000 MB/s). That one is a USB-C to USB-C (or USB-A with an adapter). I used an adapter, and it did not work.I was pleasantly surprised that this Western Digital one worked, and the console was able to recognize it as being fast enough to use as a capture device. The funny thing is that I hooked it up using the same interface, except instead of an adapter, I used a USB-C to USB-A cable that supported the spec of the drive.The RGB lighting is a nice little touch. At least with that, you can see power going to the drive. Though the lighting is not customizable on a console, only on Windows with the WD_BLACK Dashboard application.For those who are thinking about getting this or are going to and will be using it as a capture drive on your Xbox, you will need first to format it to NTFS on your computer. It comes already formatted as exFAT. After formatting it and you then plug it into your Xbox, you will be prompted as to what you would like to use the drive for. Choose "Media." You will then go into your Settings, press the Menu button, and choose Set as Capture Location (or similar).Even though it is an SSD, there will be those occasional times you want to playback a clip, and you are just presented with the first frame of the clip, and it never actually plays it back. This is just an Xbox bug, but the clip or capture is fully playable on the computer.

    Reviewed in Australia on April 13, 2023
    Loved carrying this around the house to my various PC's and laptops to store large video files.
    Super fast USB3 & great form factor. Even didn't mind the wanky RGB lights.
    Sadly yesterday the drive loses connection to the PC's in my house. (Win 10/11).
    It constantly disconnects and then reconnects with a connection duration of between 2 seconds to 3-5 minutes. During the longer connects I have been trying to get my valuable data off, a very frustrating task.
    Sorry to say WD, this didn't work out for me.
