    i know the game isnt out yet so i have checked against other games available to pre order. borderlands 3 pre order says "install on home xbox..." yet when i look at the actual game rather than the pre order page it says "install on home xbox..." and "this
    product needs to be installed on your internal harddrive" i havent found a single other game that says this. is this true? are there some games that MUST be on you internal? is this more something to ask developer? searching the web only comes up with this
    being a glitch on pc nothing about xbox at all. i bought an external ssd just for this game and would be disappointed if it was pointless.

    :)

    I get this issue sometimes for games. Usually they install to the internal hard drive and automatically transfer to an external, if you have one, and it sounds like you do.

    Sometimes my Fortnite updates even force install to my internal instead of external, but transfer over once it's complete and any downtime is over. It could also be a developer preference, yes, where they'd rather you have the game on an internal hard-drive
    instead of an external, maybe to prevent data loss if your external is disconnected randomly or incorrectly.

    I hope this helps!

    Hi ohno itstheCoPz,

    Some games that you pre-order can be pre-installed to your system, there maybe files that need to go on your internal hard drive which I'm sure you can move to your external after it is done.

    Usually it does not matter what hard drive it is on since storage is storage.

    But it might be that this is simply and advice of the developer since the game runs a little more smoothly when on internal hard drive.

    how would it run more smoothly internally? usb 3.0 is faster than the SATA II internally and ssd is much faster/effecient than an hdd. original xbox one btw

    It could be a problem with the Hard Drive itself or a problem with the internal connection to the hard drive, Try removing the hard drive and playing without it.

    If this works, then it's your harddrive. Install the harddrive back in your xbox and try again.
