    So, it looks like these Xbox things are going to be around for awhile.  Very Happy   I decided to embellish mine a bit.  I bought the Elite Controller.  I've only used it for a day.  Already I like it.  I love the D Pad!  And I can map each button and trigger on the thing...Handy!  I'll let you know how it goes as I use it more.

    A few months ago I saw something advertised that I thought was rather clever.  It's a hard drive enclosure for the Xbox One.  It's a thin extension of the XOne case that plugs into the USB port on the left side.  You can put a hard drive in it.  It also has three USB ports on the front.  Here  is a picture of the enclosure:

    And here's what it looks like installed:

    The enclosure is $30.  I got a 2 TB hard drive for for $105.  It took about 15 minutes to install.  A relatively inexpensive way to add storage (and additional USB ports).

    Happy gaming!

    That's actually a pretty cool add-on, I like the attention to detail and avoiding the simple cord extension unit design.
