The age of the official Microsoft "MU" is finally over. Or, head to our Windows 10 Forums for more discussions and troubleshooting advice.This week's system update for the Xbox 360 saw the addition of support for USB drives on the console, allowing players - for the first time, officially - to use their own flash devices for extra storage. From there you can see how much space is used on a disk, view a disk’s content, and transfer items from one drive to another.Īre you an Xbox owner who’s increased storage space with an external drive? Let us know how it works for you in the comment section below.
In my case it was a new drive and formatting it took less than 10 seconds, but your mileage may vary.Īfter the drive has been successfully formatted, head to Settings > System > Storage to view and manage your new disk. For my purposes, I chose to use the original, but you can change it later in Settings.Īfter that, you’re ready to format the drive. You will be asked if you want all games to be installed on this drive moving forward or still use the original drive. Then you will be prompted to type in a name for the drive using the onscreen keyboard. After that, you’ll be prompted to select how you want to use the drive – either for music and videos storage or for apps and games. Since I’m going to use it for games, it needs to be formatted to the proprietary Xbox One format - select “Format storage device.” Add External Drive to Xbox One for More Storageįirst, fire up your Xbox One and plug in the drive you want to use into an available USB port on the console. For this example, I’m using an Xbox One S, but the process is the same whether you’re using the original Xbox One model or the newer Xbox One X. First, the drive you add needs to be USB 3.0 and a minimum size of 256 GB, but you will want to get the largest size you have. Note: There are few things to keep in mind before starting.
