Question about storage space

nickhillegas · Nov 18, 2014

I have 9 games downloaded and I have 93.4% of my storage space used

once I run out of space will I have to uninstall old games to make room for new ones?

Does anyone know how big the latest update is?

It was about 30MB. Most of its space it uses will have already been assigned on your storage so I wouldn't worry about running out of space.

If you have one you could also use an old HDD, I upgraded from an elite to a slim console, I kept the elites HDD and using the data transfer cable I'm able to swap saves around as and when required, it's been really handy for keeping my old saves and DLC
that I don't use very often.

Hey there! You will have to uninstall games if you need space and don't have a hard drive. I purchased a 50.00 1TB hard drive and moved games to it. Works great and just as fast as the regular one due to USB 3.0. You can also move your current games to that
hard drive.

Probably a silly question, what is your storage space like? And are you using an adult account?

1tb storage once formatted gives about 931GB, then after all system reserved space you get about 802GB of usable space, so it all works out ok.

storage manufacturers work storage out as 1000MB per Gigabyte, Software works out as 1024MB per Gigabyte.

Been this way for all time and will never change.

500GB console has about 364GB useable space (after format and system reserve)

1TB console has about 802GB usable space (after format and system reserve)
