    External hdd with series x


    I have the series x and I'm using a seagate USB 3.0 external hdd which I was using on my one x prior to upgrading to the series x and for the last few months my hdd isn't found when I turn on the xsx, sometimes when I try to load a game or app that's on the internal ssd or the expansion ssd nothing happens unless I unplug the seagate hdd from the console, when I plug the hdd in after waiting 2 mins it works fine but then have to go through it all again the next day, anyone have any idea what the issue is, is it time for a new external hdd or could it be the xsx, thanks in advance of any advice

    :)

    Do you use an external HDD? I'm sure most do. I have a 4TB external as my main HDD with every Forza on it including 5. When you get Series X, it's as simple as unplugging the HDD and plugging it into the USB on the Series X. Done. All games will be playable
    and benefit from some enhancements. (still need to see more info on this, exciting nonetheless)

    I have switched to an Xbox series X from an Xbox one S. we used an external sea gate hard drive to store games. The series x can see the hard drive but not all of the games stored on it

    What makes me think it’s a problem with the HDD is that I just plugged in another external drive that I use on a series s and the series x saw all the games stored on it. I may need to format the other hdd?

    Can i download the Xbox One version of dying light 2 on my Series X?

    This method did not work for me, it still downloaded the series x/s version of the game to my external hdd and would not play it.

    Storage device, Series X/S

    external hdd's are not fast enough for the new series s/x optimised games and therefore have to run off the internal ssd or the new expansion cards, all xbox one games and 360 BC games can run off your external hdd.
