Cant access games on external storage

No you are mistaking what you need

Seagate external storage card NOT usb hdds

No hdd will ever match the nvme speedds as it's limited.by usb and game design

Nvme has direct access to cpu .gpu .and memory

You can only store it on external hdd but you cant run it from there you have to move it you internal or or Seagate or wd storage cards

You are talking about 12x the difference in speeds

500mbps vs 4.8gbps

On the Xbox One game saves are stored both on the console and the cloud for easy access at any location. As for game install storage you can add external drives ranging in size from 256 GB to 16 TB for plenty of storage space for your games and DLC. The
external storage can be set as the default storage if you so choose.

It's installed on internal storage I cant play it on external drive

Hello Magazine,

Thank you for posting here on the Xbox forums. I have split your post into its own thread in order to help you out directly. Whenever a game is moved from the internal storage to an external storage, a second progress bar shows up. This is not the game installing
again. This progress bar is showing how far along the game is from moving between storages.

Just to be sure, you can access your Storage settings. Access your internal and your external storage to look for any duplicates.

Hope this helps!

Unplug the external drives. Also, are you trying to access the storage under Settings> System> Storage?
