    Hey guys, I need some serious help. I recieved a 500gb xbox one for christmas along with advanced warfare and Unity. Then after both the games downloaded to the hard drive, I had already used a quarter of space! Could I have done somthing wrong?

    Nope. System space takes quite a bit so you have like 360GB or something useable on a 500GB hard drive. Both ACs are like 40GB each so it sounds about right. Just buy a 1 or 2TB Hard drive and run it in to the X1, 500GB doesn't last as long as you'd think it might.

    andham1,

    You can indeed use two USB external drives at a time but no more than two with each external drive having a max of 2TB. This means you could essentially have 4TB of space using external drives.

  5. And forgot to mention, your console will need to be update to the most current system update as well.

    Greetings, res27772! Thanks for bringing your question to the forums. Before you delete anything I would suggesting clearing your system cache by following these steps:

    support.xbox.com/.../clear-system-cache
    . Let me know if you're still seeing the Title Content Progress cache message after doing so. Thanks!

    ^We did, support for external storage. Which works out much better value than the extra 500gb in the 1tb version.

    @ Darkside.

    I see your point. It would be nice to have the choice to play from either the hard drive or the game disc (do you remember that, and you could take the disk to your mates house and play it on his/her Xbox too! :) ).

    I for one got a bit ticked off waiting for new overlays to load on the 360 (depending on the game).

    It's all a temporary issue until we get ubiquitous Mega / Terra Bit broadband and games are bought / rented from the cloud with storage space included in the game cost!... It'll come! I'm sure I saw the BT van down our street last week!!

    got to go. its medication time!

    See the post re June Update!

    2 x USB 3 external drives to be supported.

    cheers

    So an extra £200.00 to max out external storage because the One can't manage more than 342.5GB of data?

    Who in their right mind is going to "cheer" about that?
