    External hard drive won't capture game clips? [FALL UPDATE]


    I updated my Xbox One S recently for the Fall update, and it said that you can now capture game clips directly onto an external hard drive. That's a great idea... if it would actually work.

    I'm not sure if it's my hard drive or my Xbox playing up - I can store music/apps/etc. on my drive (a Seagate Expansion Portable hard drive, 2TB, USB 3.0), but every time I try to set it up to record game captures, it says that it's too slow because it needs
    to be USB 3.0 and also needs to be formatted for NTFS. I've checked my hard drive's setting/formatting - it is set up for NTFS - and it is definitely USB 3.0, as I have the box right here and the Seagate website telling me so.

    If anyone could tell me what to do, that would be greatly appreciated. I don't have enough money to go out and buy a brand new hard drive specifically for capturing game clips (I had to buy this one because my previous 1TB Samsung hard drive was stolen),
    and I won't have enough in general until December (Christmas follows my birthday pretty closely). Hopefully, I'll be able to resolve this problem without having to buy a new hard drive or an extra USB 3.0 connector as a go-between for the Xbox and my hard
    drive.

    :)

    Game Capture to External Drive DOESN'T WORK??

    Hi all,

    So this 'Fall Update' is supposed to allow us to record gameplay straight to an external hard drive, providing it's formatted NTFS and at least USB 3.0. I'm using a drive that is both of these things and it is just not working at all. It recognises that
    a drive has been plugged in, but when I try to set it as a capture location, it'll either tell me the drive isn't fast enough (it is...), or that it needs to be formatted in NTFS (it is...).

    Anyone else experiencing this or know how to fix it?

    Thanks

    Can't play apex legends because of this error...

    Could be the external hard drive causing the issue then it won't be the first time I seen errors appearing after updates on external hard drives. Try installing it on internal drive instead if you can?.

    Laggy game clips

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Chandler, you're taking these clip captures inside your Xbox HARD drive or on some external HARD drive if you have any external HARD drive so try setting it up as media and redirecting the captures to it.

    Recording videos

    Hi you can actually increase te record length of 1080p if you save the game captures to an external hard drive. However it cannot be a drive that you also use to save games to. It needs to be formatted as NTFS and not prepared as an internal drive. You
    will then be able to save game captures to it and increase the length of the captures.

    Lost Captures

    I was not hurting for space on my internal hard drive

    I am the only one who uses my xbox, so it was not someone else's handiwork.
    At first I thought that it was because there was some recent update that made it so external hard drives cant save games and captures on the save device, in doing so, wiping my captures. But I don't think that's the case

    Is there a way to see how much of this dedicated capture space is used up at the moment?
