My Xbox One may have destroyed two HDDs in a row

The HDD eventually started to work with the Xbox, I could install Need for Speed and the Master Chief Collection but Skate 3 and Battlefield 1 get stuck even though my network is fine. Any suggestions?

I just bought another enclosure, formatting still does not work, the SSHD cannot even be initialized... None of them appear into the Data LifeGuard Diagnostics software. That console really did kill 1.750 Go worth of hard drive...

EDIT: the HDD shows up in DLGDIAG and the smart status shows to be good (it says PASS). But formatting still fails...

Wow, that's a lot of information. Thank you. But, there are two things that jump out at me. First, you say "I tried to disable quick formatting but it never completed in hours so I canceled...". Does this mean you were never able to do and or complete a
full NTFS format of the drives? And, when you say "I put it in the enclosure...", does this mean you are using the
same USB enclosure for both drives?

Yes, only quick exFAT works and I switch drives when trying to format the drive

Hey ! With the external disconnected does the game install and launch? If so, the external hard drive may have an issue. Post back and let me know!

Yes, hey do, but the drives are not in cause since both of them were working, the HDD worked for more than a month and the SSHD was working fine before using it for the Xbox One. The enclosure is not defective either, the one I'm using is brand new and severla
users seem to use it flawlessly for this use. I don't know why, but when I try to move a game installed on the internal, nothing or really few moves... Once the process started, I can't stop it. Even if I unpmug and plug back, it tries again and freezes in
that position. I thought Need for Speed and the Master Chief Collection were installed correctly since they appeared in the games section, but when starting them, an error message says the starting process was too long... I play all the games currently installed
on the console and won't uninstall any, and since I cannot install any more because the console won't let me, I won't buy any more drives even branded Xbox (that Seagate one) and think I'll simply let the console somewhere and wait for a stable console to
be released. Or eventually never play it again.

Hey SillyViceKid! Can you try installing them to the internal drive? Additionally, can you post your

detailed network statistics and NAT so we can take a look? Thanks!
