    External Hard Drive read as media only

    I'm sorry, but how does having a working external HDD then after an update a nonworking HDD constitute us having to do this BS?

    I had a perfectly fine Xbox One with all my games on my external HDD and this morning after and update... A POS.

    Please realize this is bigger than 1 person issue.

    Hi Gav,

    Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We understand you have an issue with an external HD. We recommend formatting the drive on a PC make sure to format in NTFA format. Once formatted than try and connect to the console.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    Supposedly it's being worked on, but we've had no updates in days. Coincidentally, most people are reporting issues with Seagate external drives....
