You might want to to to storage and format it for games.

I have a 4 TB Seagate and that was needed to be available for games.

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.

I upgraded to a One X from a 360 and I didn`t realise everything had to be downloaded either. And my first game install was Halo 5 and that was a whopping 107GB.

The following day I went out and bought a Seagate Xbox 2TB external HDD.

No more buying a new game and having a quick go, lol

so is there an advantage to having an "XBOX HDD" rather than say a 'WD HDD'?

It`s just a licensed external HDD that is manufactured by Seagate for the Xbox, it`s green and says Xbox on the front. They do one for the PS as well, only in blue.

You can use any external HDD as long as it is USB 3.0.

I only bought it as I managed to get it at a reduced price as I had some vouchers for the store I bought it from.

Do you have the one s or the series s

The one s is NOT series console

Also it MUST BE installed on the internal or external storage card not.external hdds

Next gen games cannot be installed on external hdds as they are just too slow

With the current state of.calisto protocol.it's best not.to use Ray tracing unless you have a series x as even high end pcs have trouble with it

If you wipe it clean of all your games etc, it should still work on another Xbox One as it`s already been formatted. If it did need doing, they would get an on screen message telling them so and a choice of what the HDD will be used to save.

And you should be able to use all 8TB of your new HDD. I think the maximum total capacity of external memory you can have is 16TB with multiple external HDDs connected, with a maximum of 8TB per HDD.

What´s the maximum capacity of external 2,5" harddrive for - Microsoft Community
