    NTFS formatted hard drive with USB 3.0 not working with Xbox One X for Capturing Gameplay


    Today I started to look into capturing my gameplay and found out that the Xbox One has a built in game capture setting. I had an extra USB 3.0 Hard drive that I could plug in and (in theory) I could record up to an hour in 4k HDR onto my hard drive in order
    to edit later. I formatted my hard drive on my PC and made sure it was formatted to NTFS. When I plug in my drive, the Xbox can see it and detects it as a media drive, however, when I go into my capture settings to change from "Internal" to "Xbox Capture
    Drive" (What I named the drive) it gives me an error code:

    "First, format this device on your PC.

    To Capture game clips and screenshots externally, storage must be formatted as NTFS. Connect it to your PC and format it, then reconnect it to your Xbox. (0x80bd003c)

    I have looked up the error code and it doesn't seem like google has any sort of results for it other than an article about the USB 3.0 ports on the Xbox and the Xbox support sight for error codes. The code I entered in came back with no results.

    I currently don't have another hard drive to try, but if I get my hands on one that doesn't have anything important on it, I can try to use that one and see if there's just something wrong with the hard drive that I had been using.

    :)

    Additional hard drive issues

    I am currently having trouble with an additional hard drive, I have bought a seagate 3tb 3.0 usb hard drive but it keeps opening the media player app. I formatted it to NTFS but it is still not working. SGR-39212



    cheers

    Game Capture to External Drive DOESN'T WORK??

    Hi all,

    So this 'Fall Update' is supposed to allow us to record gameplay straight to an external hard drive, providing it's formatted NTFS and at least USB 3.0. I'm using a drive that is both of these things and it is just not working at all. It recognises that
    a drive has been plugged in, but when I try to set it as a capture location, it'll either tell me the drive isn't fast enough (it is...), or that it needs to be formatted in NTFS (it is...).

    Anyone else experiencing this or know how to fix it?

    Thanks

    Trying to download PC game to external hard drive

    The drive needs to be formatted with NTFS file system

    But a question, how is the hard drive connected? USB 3.0 or USB-C?

    USB 3 looks like normal usb and often has blue inside the connector. C is a small connector

    If it is USB 3.0 it won’t work, the drive connection is too slow to play the game

    To format the hard drive go to Disk management, right click on the drive, choose format, and then select ntfs from the drop-down and hit quick format.

    Please be aware this will erase the existing contents of the drive

    NTFS formatted hard drive with usb 3.0 not working with Xbox One S for capturing gameplay

    so i just noticed when its plugged into the xbox, its name on the xbox is EFI. Which makes me think that the partion is an issue. However, since the partition is needed (also i don't have the option to delete it. "delete" is just greyed out), idk what to do. The efi partition small, and the xbox recognizes the ntfs formatted space of 3.6TB. the majority of the hard drive is ntfs, but i dont think i can make it all ntfs. Also, the xbox can read it just fine. so i downloaded media player on my xbox and i can watch everything just fine. I just can't add more videos for some reason.

    External hard drive

    remember that your hard drive must be in NTF format (you can format it on a pc and put that format) is the only format compatible with xbox, just as it must be usb 3.0 have at least 250 gb

    Xbox One S Record Gameplay Micro Sd Card

    Hi Ameerh1! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    The USB device needs to be a USB 3.0, NTFS-formatted to work for captures, i don't believe a MicroSd with a USB adapter can reach USB 3.0 speed

    xbox one recognizes drive, won't let me format for extra storage

    Just to be sure... does your hard drive use USB 3.0? If it's a USB 2.x hard drive, the Xbox One won't be able to format it for use with games/apps.
