    How to fix external hard drive error 0x80bd003c when trying to set as capture location.


    I recently bought a Seagate Firecuda gaming hub and was attempting to use it as a capture location but it was not working correctly.

    I saw a few other posts on this issue but none of them were 100% helpful so hopefully this is.

    What ended up being the problem in my case is there is an EFI partition that is formatted in fat32 at the very start of the drive if you look at the drive using windows disc management.

    Rather than remove it as I was worried it might contain information relating to how the RGB lights are set/customized, I found a HDD reformatting program (called niubi) and moved the EFI partition.

    To do so I had to delete the second partion that is after the EFI partition (where you would normally store things) and then I was able to move the EFI partition to the end of the available space on the hard drive.

    Once that was done I recreated the NTFS storage partition, and that fixed my problem.

    I hope this is helpful.

    :)

    Xbox one x capture

    Hi There.

    i would delete any captures that are on the console, as there is only limited space for captures

    attach a external drive, and set the drive as the location for the captures, that should help

    Laggy game clips

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Chandler, you're taking these clip captures inside your Xbox HARD drive or on some external HARD drive if you have any external HARD drive so try setting it up as media and redirecting the captures to it.

    How do I record 16 minutes of blackout gameplay through theater mode?

    You could set up an external hard drive specifically or captures.

    1. Plug a USB 3.0 (or faster) drive into your console.
    2. Press the Xbox button  to open the guide.
    3. Go to System > Settings > System >
      Storage.
    4. Go to your external drive and select Set as capture location.
    5. Your game clips and screenshots will be recorded to your external drive. To revert, set your internal drive as your capture location.

    0x80bd003c - Format HDD to NTFS to use for Xbox game captures

    Yes and it gives me the error message as per the above.

    You can also set the external drive as capture location from the storage screen but it gives me the exact same error message.
