Installed games on external HDD are not showing in my games & apps when connected to Series X

I have the same question. I have FH4 and Gears 5 on external hdd and i play on Xone X. What will happen when I plug in my external hdd to my new x series x. WIll the new concol see games already installed on my external hdd and how then smart delivery
will work?? Must I change location of FH4 and Gears 5 from external hdd to internal ssd to use smart delivery?

@markmoore793 I selected my external hdd in the drop down so it would only show what was on it and it shows nothing but when i connect system back to internet it shows all the game i installed

I thank you so much for a quick response. I think the best way if i am going to make a backup of my Owned Digital Games is Re-download them from Microsoft Store into a New Empty USB HDD. Because when i tried turning on my Series X and disconnected the external USB HDD prior, the games that are supposed to be in my External USB HDD are now under ready to install

list.

Do you use an external HDD? I'm sure most do. I have a 4TB external as my main HDD with every Forza on it including 5. When you get Series X, it's as simple as unplugging the HDD and plugging it into the USB on the Series X. Done. All games will be playable
and benefit from some enhancements. (still need to see more info on this, exciting nonetheless)

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
