  1. Xbox one external hard drive.


    Hi I'm wondering if any one can help me. I'm looking at buying am xbox one again but the person selling it has the games all saved onto a external harddrive. They are all digital versions. But he has deleted his account on the xbox. If I buy it the console
    and external hdd will I be able to play the games on my account. Or will I have to buy them?

    :)

    Those games are associated with his account. You would only be able to play them if his tag stays on the external.

  6. Unfortunately, you might have to buy them. I believe the games are linked to the gamer tag which initially purchased them

    I think if you have a gold account you can play them but if the person selling it gets another Xbox and goes gold you will lose the games ...... I think !!

    Providing the seller keeps that One as his Home console, then you'd be able to play the game whether his tag is on there or not.

    However if he were ever to set another One as his Home console then you'd immediately lose access to those games.

    Memoria esterna non rilevata e il controller non risponde ai comandi [Translation - External memory is not detected and the controller does not respond to commands]

    Hi there,

    Thanks for the reply. I'm sorry to hear that the issue is persistent on the External Hard Drive.

    Have you tried connecting the hard drive to a PC?

    Does the PC recognize the external hard drive?

    Does the external hard drive meet the specifications for the Xbox One?

    If the problem persists, I recommend to try a different external hard drive on the Xbox if possible. One thing we want to make sure, Are the ports on the Xbox One functioning?

    Let us know.

    hard drive

    As an idea for xbox one hard drives because they are internal and not external try plugging in an external drive to save or transfer all important games to external hard drive and leave not so important games onto internal drive
    that way you can take them anywhere and not have hard drive failures with xbox one.

    Are you running it off of the hard drive on the Xbox One or an external one? If you are playing off of the internal drive on the Xbox One then you may want to get an external for it because that is a known issue as far as the Xbox One hard drive and this
    game.
