    Okay so external storage device


    I have tried literally every "Useful" tip under the sun at this point and it's STILL not being detected, it was working fine one night then I woke up and it hasn't worked ever since.

    Okay so external storage device

    Hello OrcKiller2002! I'm Kris and I'd be happy to help you with your question.

    Sorry to hear you are having issues with your external storage. Which Xbox is this and what storage device? Have you tried connecting the storage device to a PC to see if that detects it?

    I have a 1 TB external HDD that I want to use fr my Xbox One

    Oh okay. It's possible a compatibility issue. Do you have a different cable for your external drive? Please try a different cable and see if it will detect your drive correctly.

    Make sure as well that only one storage device is connected and don't use multiple external storage devices.

    Yoostar 2 & External Harddrives

    Okay a little confusing but here's how it works. When any External Device be it a HDD or Flash Drive is used as a Storage Device (Memory for the Xbox 360), the Xbox 360 will only recognize it as such (a Storage Device) via the
    USB. In short, a really huge External HDD becomes a 16Gb (Max) Storage Device from USB.

    Some Games and some Features of Xbox LIVE require an Official MS Xbox 360 HDD that is for that particular Xbox 360 Console (ie Slim with Slim HDD). Simply using an External HDD will not work for these cases. Any External Storage Device is meant to supplement,
    not replace an Official HDD or the performance of one that some Games and Features require.

    Xbox one games crashing upon launch

    Hi there,

    just to be sure, are the games installed on the internal storage device or an external storage device?

    If they are installed on an external storage device, please try and see what happens if the game is installed on the internal storage device and the external storage device is disconnected.

    Can I connect Xbox One X front USB port to an external storage with a 14Tb Sata disk ?

    Hi there!

    Your Xbox One X's has three USB 3.0 ports (that includes the front). So it should be okay to use the front port for external devices.

    You can surely use 14TB of external. But please note that when connecting external drives via USB 3.0, do not connect any single drive larger than 16 TB, and no more than three external drives total at the same time. External storage larger than that will not work.
