    External Hard Drive Advice


    Hi all, my Xbox One needs more storage space and i'm not very good when it comes to tech stuff so can someone point me in the direction of a good 1TB external hard drive please? I live in the UK so one that is easily to pick up in the UK would be great.
    I'm not to fussed about price, but in the same sense I don't want to be spending a fortune on just 1TB. There is so many to chose from when I search them on Google, but with having no idea about tech stuff, they all just look the same to me.

    Any help is much appreciated. Cheers.

    :)

    My Xbox 360 S is freezing! HELP!

    Just to add to vdeathrow93's advice, using an external USB hard drive will not resolve your issue.

    External Hard Drive Advice

    You might want to consider something larger than a 1TB . You can get 3+TB drives really inexpensive these days. Personally, I use a Seagate 3TB drive and I have been very satisfied with it. I also hear the Western Digital drives are good drives for the
    Xbox One. The basic specs for the drives are USB 3.0 and 256GB or larger. Hope this helps. Good Luck!!

    You can even find a 2TB or 4TB Xbox-branded Seagate drive now External Hard Drive Advice :) It should be purchasable from your country's Microsoft Store website:
    www.microsoftstore.com under "Xbox", "Xbox Accessories".

    I hope that helps!

    Xbox external hard drive not working!!

    Hi, David! I'm sorry to hear that.

    Unfortunately, it seems your external hard drive is indeed malfunctioning or has become corrupted. In this case, I'm afraid my best advice would be to reach out to your external hard drive's manufacturer for specialized assistance or warranty inquiries.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions.

    Best regards.

    Is this game stored on your Internal Storage or External hard drive? If it's on your External Hard drive kindly move it to your Internal Storage then remove the hard drive. This is to check if it's due to the external hard drive.
