What sizes external HDD you getting?

If you're a hardcore gamer that buys every game that releases, 4TBs of storage and up seems like a good investment over the life span of the console. I think the most I'll ever need is 1.5/2TB.

 

I'll just be using my leftover SSDs. Right now I have a 500GB Samsung 840 EVO attached. Waiting for them to clear the "Ready to Start" problem before moving over the rest of my titles.

 

4TB should be an alright start.

 

Im taking it that 2.5 drives are powered from the Xbox Ones USB port. What's the fastest and largest 2.5" drives at the moment?

 

20 billion zillion and a half TB.

 

500gig ssd and usb3 enclosure for it

 

I have an old external HDD that's only the min. size @ 256GB, which I can use, but it'll do just fine for now.

 

I'm either going to grab 4TB or 3TB. The price difference is not too big between those 2 but man, £90+ for more space. Its a lot :/ I would rather pay for extended Cloud storage if they allowed that.

 

[quote user="Whagi"]What's the fastest and largest 2.5" drives at the moment?[/quote]Fastest would be a 1TB SSD in a 2.5" enclosure.

Largest would be a portable 2TB HDD. That I'm aware of 2TB is the maximum available capacity for 2.5" HDDs.

 

I have a few 3TB external drives. Just dont want another power brick in my livingroom. I also have two 2.5 1TB external drives. So I will just use those for the time being.

 

Whagi, I'd be more than happy to take a few of those external HDDs off of your hands if you want to save the shelf space.

 

Hooked up a 3TB drive and after moving everything and including the 500GB on the console I've got 2.7TB remaining.

 

I wont be getting one until more games are available. Ive gone all digital but Ive still got 42% left and dont forsee me buying much until Fall.

 

after reflecting on this subject, i have a couple of 2Tb hard drives i'm not using, but i really wonder how much storage i'll need, most multiplayer games are going to have a yearly release and i rarely play the old games once the new one is out, most single
player games i'll only play once or twice, maybe again a few years later, but then there will be games Like Destiny (and i'm guessing The Division) that will be meant to last for several years and adding a lot of content over that time.....

so i really wonder how things will look in 10 years.

 

To be fair. Its only MP games, and ones i actually play online that stay on my HDD. All others get deleted after finishing them. But its nice to know we can now add more storage if and when needed.
