Just a hint. Portables are tricky as most will require a Y cable (because they are USB 3.0 now). I got an imation 500gb one. Sometimes the Wii U doesnt detect it and sometimes it does. Just need to turn console on and off and it usually does. I have had my Wii U freeze on me before because of the external hdd.


Nintendo could have solved a lot of hdd issues with USB 3.0.
