    Formating Hdd for xbox one


    Hi, Im having an issue with formatting an external harddrive for my xbox, it recognizes it and gives me the options to format it and to use for downloading games but when i click the format option you're supposed to expect a notification from the xbox that

    Defragment hard drive

    All HDD or SSD drives that you use to save games on Xbox One consoles are formatted with a proprietary format. You will be unable to defrag those drives because there is no utility to do so for this Xbox proprietary format.

    External HDD

    Yes External HDD support is available. The External HDD must be at least 256GB in size and use USB 3.0. Keep in mind that the External HDD will have to be formatted for use with the Xbox One console.
