    Xbox Series X|S Storage


    I have an Xbox Series S, and when I got the Series S I figured I could use my old Seagate drive to help store more games that were X|S optimized. But as it turns out most of them have to be on my internal for me to actually play them.

    When I was playing Overwatch it didn't matter if it was on my internal but had that X|S logo.

    When playing Yakuza: Like A Dragon it had to be in my internal to even start.

    Can certain games fit into my Seagate drive rather than my internal, because I don't have enough room for all of these games, and as of the current moment I can fit only 4 games on my Internal.

    There's a newer version of the Seagate drive available for these next gen consoles, but seriously, $200 for just 1T?

    :)

    Optimized Games X|S

    Hi,

    Both Series X/S games and Xbox One games that been optimised (I'm British) for Series X/S must be installed on either the internal storage or the expansion card. They can not be run from a USB connected storage device. My optimised Series X/S Xbox One games
    were moved to my Expansion card during their update.

    Can you use external hard drives on xbox series s

    Hi,

    Series X|S optimised games can only run on either the internal storage or expansion card. You can 'store' Series X|S on a USB hard drive/SSD for later but you can't play them from these drives as they're not fast enough.

    Xbox One games that are not optimised for Series X|S can be run from USB Storage.
