    The reason why you can no longer use a external drive is because Microsoft wants to make more money. I just downloaded about 15 games to my external drive in order to play I had to transfer them to my internal. If you fill up your internal drive which is usually smaller than the external drives then you will be forced to buy Microsoft storage in order to get more games

    Don't let Microsoft lie to you.

    Again you didn't read the series x specs ?

    It's not usb type c 3gbps

    It's USB 2 500mbps

    Again how do you expect your old tech to conquer 4.8gbps direct access ot cpu gpu and memory this is the way next gen games are designes

    To bypass the bottlenecks you are asking for

    Your method

    Hdd to usb to usb host to pci to northbridge cpu gpu memory then back again to save at 500mbps

    You can test this by moving any game from external to internal ps5 or even xbox

    It's painfully slow unless you use nvme

    Don't let Microsoft lie to you.

    The reason why is because USB three is exponentially slower than the internal drive, and large 4K assets and environments require the additional data bandwidth

    The same exact claims were made when the last generation stopped letting you play from the disc, despite the fact that Blu-ray drives are much slower with much lower times than DVD drives, and the fact that no optical drive has the speed to keep up, it was still insisted that this was in order to rip people off.

    PC. gamers stopped being able to play from the CD ROM sometime around 1994. They kept it going far longer than they probably should have

    Don't let Microsoft lie to you.

    How is that even a lie ?

    You can't compare 4.8gbps vs 500mbps you are trying to use

    You are talking about 12x the difference in speed

    MS and sony has been very open about it.

    If you want next.gen games to.play you must use nvme NOT 30 year old tech

    Nvme.isnt.just speed.

    It's about direct.access.to the cpu.gpu and memory that's the way games are designed for next gen consoles

    something you can't achieve with 30 year old.tech

    You can only use external.slow drives on old games

    You can even test.it

    Copy any game .from .storage.card. Onto internal 4.8gbps

    If you do it.over external.hdd it takes awhile per game depending on size

    If you don't want next gen tech then rely on old games and don't buy new games as xbox one is slowly not getting new games

    It's even on the box

    Not to.mention numerous articles online

    Instead of spreading rumors just reason the box it's clearly labeled

    Games.like.Baldur's gate 3 and Harry Potter old gen games get delayed bcause of the performance differences or haven't you noticed

    Don't let Microsoft lie to you.

    pc game disks were still being made in the early 2010s, Your Entirely wrong.

    Don't let Microsoft lie to you.

    for starters usb 3.1 can reach 10 gbps

    USB 3.0 is 5 Gbps both are faster than the 4.8 gbps so your blatently wrong on your facts and the most basic internet search proves your wrong

    USB 2.0 is 480 mbps

    usb 1.1 is 12 mbps

    usb 1.0 is 1.5 mbps

    No USB standard has ever existed with 500 mbps

    USB 3.0 is faster than the internal drive microsoft has but unfortunately microsoft's forums is ran by technologically illiterate people
