    Hello Anonymous_375,

    Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    I can see that you are having trouble downloading games on your external hard drive. There are a few possible reasons why this might happen, such as:



    - Your external hard drive is not formatted for Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S.

    - Your external hard drive does not have enough free space to download the games.

    - Your external hard drive is not connected properly to your console or has a faulty cable.

    - Your console settings are not configured to download games to your external hard drive.



    To troubleshoot this issue, please follow these steps:



    1. Make sure your external hard drive is compatible with your console. You can check the compatibility requirements here: Troubleshoot external storage detection on Xbox | Xbox Support

    2. Make sure your external hard drive is formatted for your console. You can format your external hard drive by following these instructions: Manage storage on your Xbox console | Xbox Support

    3. Make sure your external hard drive has enough free space to download the games. You can check the available space and manage your storage by following these steps: Find your games and add-ons | Xbox Support

    4. Make sure your external hard drive is connected properly to your console and has a working cable. You can test the connection by unplugging and plugging back the cable, or trying a different USB port on your console.

    5. Make sure your console settings are set to download games to your external hard drive.
