    With respect to the Internal Storage of the Xbox Series X how long is Seagate going to have...


    I have an 8TB Western Digital external HD for my Xbox One. You can play games directly from the HD. Yet on the Series X you cannot do this and instead an External HD is only capable of storing Games which you then have to transfer to internal storage.

    Was this Microsoft's choice or part of the deal with Seagate as the ability to use an external HD would stifle Seagate's monopoly on the internal storage market?

    Is the deal with Seagate for a fixed term or for the lifespan of the current console?

    The price of a Seagate 2TB internal memory is £350 in the UK yet in the USA its £197+ £20 Shipping converted today.

    With respect to the Internal Storage of the Xbox Series X how long is Seagate going to have the monopoly on the SSD Internal Storage Component?

    they don't, Wester digital is also produce cards, anyone who wants to make them can do so. The drive side is a standard laptop SSD that just needs the heat sink case

    I'm afraid pricing is a local issue and you'd have to contact Seagate about that

    Why won't the Game Pass app (iPhone) recognise that my XsX has an SSD installed?

    Also should be noted patched games can only be installed internally or on storage cards

    NOT external hds

    Seagate ssd game drive won't cut it it must be the Seagate series x storage cards which uses nvme tech not ssd

    Can i use the xbox one seagate external on the series x?

    In order to run Xbox series games you must run them from either the internal drive, or one of the expansion cards. Your Seagate Drive can be used as long as it as it is USB 3.0 as storage for a regular Xbox one games, as well as long-term storage of series titles. You must copy them back to the internal drive or memory card before playing them

    Download move to internal on a Xbox Series X.

    You can set it so that games optimised for the Series X/S are downloaded to the internal storage automatically, if that helps. Go to Settings - System - Storage devices - Change installation locations and you can change the settings there.

    I dunno why there's no warning, but yeah; games optimised for Series X/S consoles can only be run from the internal SSD or a Seagate expansion card, not a regular external hard drive.

    Why can I not launch my Xbox one games from my external hard drive, even after upgrading them from within the internal hard drive for the series s/x enhanced editions?

    It has been stated since before the Series consoles launched, that Series X/S optimized games need to be played off of the internal storage or the Seagate expansion card. That is the only way.
