    External HD


    I bought a Samsung D3 Station 2tb external hard drive, and when I plug it in you can tell power goes to the hard drive, as the light comes on and it makes noise, but the xbox isnt picking up that its there, so I cant use it for games, any one know how I
    can fix this?

    :)

    Games not registering downloaded DLC

    Something VERY bizarre is happening! I used my external HD to transfer all content from my old Xbox HD, to my new 320gb HD. There is absolutely NOTHING on my external HD now. Yet I've found if I start skyrim up and plug in my external HD it sees the DLC?!?!
    There is no Skyrim content on my external HD only the Xbox HD! I will also add that I originally downloaded both DLCs to my old 250Gb Xbox HD so the licences is still on there. I'll also add I'm connected to Xbox live so licenses should not matter!!

    External HD

    Is it USB3.0? That's the first thing to verify before going further. USB2.0 will not work.

    How Do I Fix My Seagate External Hard Drive From Shutting Down My Xbox Series S?

    Hello again, if you tested your external HD on another console and it also turned off, it means that there is some problem with your external HD, but it may be on the cable or even in the HD box.

    Which to buy, the 500gb or 1TB?

    To echo blue. Minimum is 3.0 USB. 256GB external HD. And You can use up to 2 5TB external HD. So 10 TB

    One second frame freeze in some games.

    The internal disk would be the console HD? I don't have an external HD.

    My Ext. Hard Drive shuts my XBONE off/crashes

    Hi AyeYaya,

    It sounds that the external HD may have gotten corrupted causing the Xbox One to shutdown since you are able to use the console fine without the external HD plugged in.

    Do you happen to have another external HD that meets the requirements for testing purposes? Or would you happen to be able to try that HD on another Xbox?

    You may need to delete what you have on there, re-format the HD for the Xbox One, and then download what you had on there again.
