XBox storage extension
Another Xbox question ......
Son has an Xbox 1 and is having to delete old games every time he gets a new one and is getting to the point where extra storage is needed. Seems an external disk is the only option. There is an official Xbox think its 2TB disk available for £80, just wondered are there any cheaper options, would imagine even 1TB would be plenty as currently I think he has 500gb so doubling that on a new disk should give plenty of headroom. |

Any USB3 drive will be fine, you should be able to get a 1Tb for well under £50

Amazon have a Seagate 1TB for £45 and 2 TB for £68 and the Xbox Gaming 2 TB item for £75. See no reason to go for the actual gaming edition one and its a horrible bright green colour, thinking maybe 1 TB is loads but could be wrong.

1tb will be more than enough, I've set mine up so it sees the 2 drives as one, I've got about 10 games installed and not even 20% usage, some games are of course bigger than others.

is this easy to do? I had a memory stick in use on his old 360 & saves needed pointing in that direction each time.

Ordered the 1 TB thanks to all.
How do I set it up as one drive, that sounds handy or maybe it goes that way anyway. Seems to say the disk just needs plugged in and the Xbox will find it automatically. What happens then when installing a new game, does it automatically go to the new drive as it has space or does that need selected? |
