4TB Game Drive wont recognize (XB1X)

I think the only way to get the full 16tb would be to use four different hard drive enclosures and four 4tb drives. (I think?) You could only have two connected at once though.

Keep in mind that if you get a bare drive and enclosure separate, make sure you get an enclosure that will recognize your drive. Many external enclosures won't recognize huge hard drives. Get one that will specifically recognize yours. The one I linked
to will recognize a 4tb drive.

Good luck.

I have a 4TB Ext HDD on my XB1X and another one @ my office with my media.

I like the ability to move the HDD to my other Xbox's

I have had no issues that unplugging and plugging the drive has not fixed.

G'day Oldy,

I recently had to reinstall GTA5 from disc and download an update during installation back onto a XB1X after losing a 4TB external drive. The disc files were relatively quick compared to the network files. All up the installation was 90GB and took at least 4hrs or so.

@GrowlingYapper I own a 4TB external HD that I use to play media off of on my Xbox 360. It was a bit of a pain getting it to recognize it as well as recognize it as a media player which are two totally different things. Do you know if a 4TB would work as
a media player on an Xbox One. I plan on grabbing a one but want to use my external as a media drive and have no intentions of using it as a stroage for games, etc.

As @julian_ suggested, I'd do a power cycle. Please keep in mind that it may also take a while for your console to read games on the external drives. I am having the same issue. It may take up to 5 minutes for a 4tb drive to fully recognize all games installed
on it.
