Problem with storage on Xbox series s

short answer: yes

long answer: How to expand Xbox Series X, Series S storage with an external drive | Windows Central

This article explains the difference between using a regular external hard drive versus the custom external storage for the Series S/X- https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2020/09...xbox-series-s-custom-storage-solution-primer/

An external hard drive used on the One will work for the Series S/X, but won't have the exact same performance as the one created for the Series S/X.

Ok did you put it in an internal memory or storage card or external usb drive

If external that would be why

You can only put it in an internal memory or storage card

Now I'd you are saying you have a Xbox one S

That isn't a series s

Series consoles.are different and are not considered Xbox one nor is it part of the name

Also any games.that are meant for the series consoles has to be on storage card or.internal memory

Xbox one games works regardless of Xbox one s or og or one x

And you can use any storage

But for Xbox series consoles there is only s or x not one s/x

And only games on optimized nvme or the Xbox nvme storage card will download the series version

If you put it on external it would only download the Xbox one as you arent running thr optimized nvme

Hi,

Both Series X/S games and Xbox One games that been optimised (I'm British) for Series X/S must be installed on either the internal storage or the expansion card. They can not be run from a USB connected storage device. My optimised Series X/S Xbox One games
were moved to my Expansion card during their update.

Apparently you didn't read all the options you still have 512 gig and 2 tbs and 1tb

Next gen storage is costly but trust me on the ps5 side it's about similar

You don't need next gen storage for xbox one games only enhanced or series games
