Q: Is the software with this device compatible with Mac's Time Machine?

You will need to reformat the drive to HTFS+ which is easily done with disc utility. Time Machine can not back up to FAT32. Macs come with all the software needed already installed and it's easy. There's no need to use 3rd party software.

Q: Does it show up like a drive with a letter when you plug it in? Like the old external drives used to.

Your operating system will auto assign a drive letter to any storage device detected. So, in Windows - Yes, ALL Windows versions will auto assign a drive letter. Once connected you have the option to assign a drive letter to it for all future connections (like P: for portable) rather than take the default.

Q: Will this drive work with the Xbox one? My main concern is that this drive is unformatted, and most compatible are shown as NTFS. I would think that since the Xbox automatically re-formats the drive during initial installation unformatted, NTFS and FAT32 would all work, is this correct as well?

Yes. I've been using the 1TB version on my Xbox One for at least six months now with no issues. I had the Xbox format it, just in case, before use. The downside of USB-powered drives is that its max RPM is 5400, so the install and load times are slower than the on-board drive. If you want faster install and load times of your files/games, you'd have to get a 7200RPM driver, however those need external power (In other words, they have a wall wart which could be unsightly or you might not have an outlet available nearby.)

Q: how does data encryption work?

Encryption is basically encoding information in a way that only the person or computer with the key can decode it. Algorithm's provides the directions and gives a certain range of possible combinations to create the encoded message. A key is a sequence of digital bits that works with an algorithm to encrypt and decrypt the message. basically if you have something on the external hard drive that you don't want others to see if it was stolen or for any other reason encryption keeps them out. you need the key to be able to look at the items / files on the drive.

One of the best external HDD for this price

This is my first order from amazon.ae from Bahrain and all gone well. Delivery was very fast and delivery charge & price of the product is cheaper compared to amazon.com.I didn't liked packaging from amazon because one side of the product box have dents. But inside that, transcend made good packing and that protected the external HDD.Before using to store data, I reformatted to exFat to make it work with both Windows and Mac, and then checked HDD for bad sectors. But no issues and perfectly fine.I tested read & write speed using BlackMagic Disk Speed test tool and it showing 116+ MBPS(928 Mbps) write speed and 120.1 MBPS (960.8 Mbps) read speed. It is a good speed for HDD. Mine is 2TB. I'm using 1TB for Time Machine and 1TB as exFat, So I can use that 1 TB on both windows and mac.
