    External Hard Drive. Which one?


    I have a 1tb western digital my passport drive plugged into mine and it does the job brilliantly, had no issues whatsoever. Out of personal preference I avoid Seagate drives due to having bad luck with them in regards to build quality and bad sectors issues.

    Yes iBakez is right on the money as long as it is 3.0 USB it should be good. Western digital and Seagate drive seem the most popular. Are you in Aussieland Lei Fang? If so JBHIFI and Officceworks are the places to go for cheap hard drives. Welcome to the
    Xbox One party as well External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

  6. Hello "ibakez" and "Auswolf7" External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    Thank you very much for your feedback regarding this matter, I really appreciate it External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    At the moment, I will be playing nothing but Forza Motorsport 5 because there is so much stuff to do in this game; so HDD space won't be an issue for now.

    Thank you very much for the welcome Auswolf7 External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    Hey Lei Fang, glad to see you got your Xbox One, welcome to the Next Generation. Major Nelson uses the Seagate Expansion 5TB. I found this to be satisfactory myself, as I am using the same one. Just 3 TB.

    Hello "NxtDoc1851" External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    Thank you so much for the welcome and feedback regarding this matter, I really appreciate it External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    There is so much content in Forza Motorsport 5 that the $50.00 purchase price that I paid for is an absolute bargain External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    I will probably won't need an External HDD for a good while because I want my Xbox One collection to be "back-log" free LOL External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    Hey Lei Fang... That is a bargain. And you are not kidding regarding back log. I would just keep an eye out for savings and deals for external hard drives. I bought mine when it was 70$ off on Amazon. I couldn't pass that up. Enjoy your Xbox One and Forza

  10. Hello "NxtDoc1851" External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    I would most definitely pick-up an External HDD if it goes on sale External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    For me, not building up a game back-log is an issue because when a game goes on sale; it becomes a must purchase item.

    Then, before you know it, you have 3 or 4 games that are still unopened because they were purchased on sale.

    I will do my best to have a "buy a game & then finish that game before buying another one" policy, but it typically doesn't work out that way LOL External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    Have a nice day or afternoon or night External Hard Drive. Which one? :)

    Hey Lei Fang, I know right! That sounds like exactly what I do. I have a backlog of over 10 games right now. Some I mostly played already, but I would love to play again before we get crushed by a wave of games this fall!
