Start games on a SSD Seagate with two Consoles

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today Catchy&Co

Yes, you can use your Drive/SSD/Expansion between two Xbox consoles, just make sure to disconnect it when you're not playing games stored on that drive

I assume you're talking about the official Seagate expansion card and not an external SSD, if you are then from what I understand yes you can, the expansion car is "hot swappable", what this means is that you won't have to switch the consoles off before plugin the card in.

Xbox Reveals Good News About Series X SSD Expansion Cards (gamerant.com)

So the external seagate ssd for xbox is usb3.0 with 500mbps read and write speed right? I have two of them and i see alot of people saying "its because the external ssds are too slow to play games on,you can only play series x or enhanced one x games on internal or the seagate expansion ssd card" but alot of external ssds are fast enough? No?

Also should be noted patched games can only be installed internally or on storage cards

NOT external hds

Seagate ssd game drive won't cut it it must be the Seagate series x storage cards which uses nvme tech not ssd

I am having the same exact issue since had game updates at end of March. External Fantom drive that uses a a Seagate Firecuda SSD 2TB. This all started from Microsoft last xbox update. Fantom Drives and Seagate are aware of problem, Microsoft playing ignorance.
