    External hard drive


    Hi guys

    I have 5 external hard drives that have games on for my xbox 1. I unplugged them today to move and when I plugged them back in it came up with a message saying if you’re using it for photos click this or games then you need to format the device. But I don’t want to lose everything on it.

    Does this mean they’ve corrupted or is there a way round it?

    Please help I’m stressing

    :)

    GTA 5 Kicking Me Out

    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.

    Which Xbox One Should I Get- 500gb or 1tb

    No, the 500gb is a joke. you will 100% need either an external hard drive or to buy the larger 1tb hard drive. External hard drives are just the cheaper option.

    Requires a hard drive.

    You have to have an external hard drive plug in. It does not have to be 360 just reformat it. External hard drives that plug in the USB are not recognized as a hard drive for the 360.
