xBox One External Storage?

sarakat99 · Apr 14, 2018

I have a 4TB Seagate external hard drive. How would I be able to store my games/save data/etc from my Xbox One onto it. I know how to format the hard drive, I can't figure the rest out and don't want to risk deleting all of my data.

Thank-you very much for your help.

Hard Drive Storage Limit

if adverts for "compatible" external hard drives are any indication it would seem the external storage patch should be coming some time soon although I note it wont be in the first patch released.

To manage your storage you would go through System > Settings > System > Storage From there you can see what's on the internal hard drive and the external hard drive, move data between the 2, and set up with one you want things
to download to by default.

Hi Jimbo,

its pretty unlikely, or even impossible to implement external storage within the next update.

As much as I read about it, its planned to implement external storage devices in the future.

Here you can read a bit about it

As long as the external hard drive meets the external storage requirements of the Xbox One then yes you can.

For an external storage drive to save games and apps from Xbox One, it must meet the following requirements:

It uses a USB 3.0 connection. If you’re using a USB hub, the hub must also be USB 3.0 or later.

It has 256 GB or larger storage capacity.

It has a partition. Typically, drives come with a preformatted partition. For more information about partitioning an external hard drive, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Hello CoyOsbon,

Thanks for your post! The Xbox One supports external hard drives with a USB 3.0 Connection that are formatted to NTFS. For more info on external storage, check out: Manage
Storage - Xbox One.

I hope this helps!
