xbox series s storage gb disappeared

I already know I can't see "the full 500 gb". XBox Series S allows the users to use 364 gb of storage to install games, apps etc. So when there are no games installed, i should see 364 gb of storage empty, right?

Hi, it is me again!

On reading reviews on the Xbox Series S - 512 GB SSD, some people are complaining that the storage isn't sufficient. Perhaps these are individuals who would require a lot more storage that my sons, but I would like your opinion on this issue.

The games my son would definitely require to be downloaded are Fortnite, Call of Duty, Rocket league and Rugby20. Do you think that the Xbox Series S - 512 GB SSD is going to have enough storage for these games? Obviously I would also like him to have some storage to spare so he can download other games if need be.

Thanks

Hi. My name is Brilliant and I am happy to assist you today.

The Xbox Series S only has 364 GB of usable storage since the system files take up close to 30% of the total storage capacity. You can increase the storage on your Xbox with an Xbox Expansion Storage Card or an external USB drive.

I hope this helps with your query.

Ok.

The current generation of Xbox consoles has two different types.

Xbox Series S and Xbox series X.

I will list some key differences below, ok?

The two consoles can play the same new games, and both are backwards compatible and capable of playing virtually any game that you could play on an Xbox One (which, in turn, also means hundreds of Xbox 360 games and a handful of original-Xbox games). Without a disc drive, though, the Series S can’t play physical games you already own.

Both consoles output a 4K video signal, so watching videos on a 4K TV should be the same on either machine. But if you expect to play games in 4K, you should choose the Xbox Series X. The Series X is designed for games with resolutions of up to 4K (and it theoretically supports 8K resolutions for video content), while the Xbox Series S has less-powerful graphics hardware that game developers appear to be targeting 1080p and sometimes 1440p visuals.

The Xbox Series X and Series S have the same basic graphics capabilities, including support for variable rate shading and ray-traced visuals, a more advanced and realistic way to create lighting and visual effects. The Xbox Series X features a 12.1-teraflop GPU and 16 GB of RAM, while the Xbox Series S features a 4-teraflop GPU and 10 GB of RAM. Microsoft claims this power differential will largely bear out in resolution differences. But some games have already omitted ray tracing if you’re playing on a Series S.

The Xbox Series X includes a 1 TB storage drive, which offers about 800 GB of usable space. The Xbox Series S has a 512 GB drive with about 360 GB of usable space.
