Wireless access from laptop to external HDD on xbox one s

I got the 0x80820005 error with the Seagate Expansion 4TB as well. I have rebooted my Xbox One multiple times. I have unplugged and replugged the USB 3.0 cable into one USB port, and then the other.

Originally, I was receiving that error code with the accompanying message. Now there is no response from the Xbox One at all. The light comes on and I hear the disc spinning in my external HDD. When I tried plugging it into my laptop instead, my laptop initially
recognized it and now doesn't. Is it possible that the Xbox One is reformatting the external HDD without telling me?

I personally use, and recommend an USB 3.0 Seagate 2TB Expansion HDD for Xbox One, as external drive is powered by mains plug pack.

Laptop External HDDs powered by USB port, are thinner; but, are also slower than Desktop HDDs used in mains powered external drives.

People recommend Western Digital (WD) external HDDs: But, they tend to use Green drives that don't perform well, and tend to fail sooner etc.

I upgraded to a One X from a 360 and I didn`t realise everything had to be downloaded either. And my first game install was Halo 5 and that was a whopping 107GB.

The following day I went out and bought a Seagate Xbox 2TB external HDD.

No more buying a new game and having a quick go, lol

so is there an advantage to having an "XBOX HDD" rather than say a 'WD HDD'?

It`s just a licensed external HDD that is manufactured by Seagate for the Xbox, it`s green and says Xbox on the front. They do one for the PS as well, only in blue.

You can use any external HDD as long as it is USB 3.0.

I only bought it as I managed to get it at a reduced price as I had some vouchers for the store I bought it from.

series s and x games can only run from the internal storage or official (rip off) expansion card. only xbox one and 360 bc games can run off the external hdd.

So I cannot download GTA Xbox series s/x edition on my external hardware?

No. The slim hdd is internal for 360 S only. The original 360 had an external HDD.

Depending on the 360 S you get, it may include a hard drive. There's no way to use a hard drive transfer cable to access saves and such.

If you don't want to use a thumb drive, you could get a refurbished 360 HDD from Gamestop.

You didn't say which xbox you had. We're assuming you have the older 360 model with removable faceplate.
