![How to increase Xbox Series Storage [All methods]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Kom10hjQyfQ/mqdefault.jpg)
These consoles should have come with at least 2tb storage. MADNESS. The previous gen seemed like they came with limited storage!!
Honestly im glad they made a 1tb ver but its still not much with the size of games now
It's actually criminal when you get home and realize you can only install 3-4 big games
"Big games" some would only be able to download 2 games.
I thought it should have been like 1.256 tb for the series s to start, and maybe 2.256 tb for the series x. The SSD storage could have been increased without too much of a loss of cost on microsoft's end
right? i recently purchased an XSS bc it was cheaper and I can only keep 1-2 games at a time. 150 for 1tb storage is wild.
@@JAMES_IS_COOL1227stop only playing crap live service games like Warzone that take up hundreds of GB and you’ll see that there are tons of other smaller amazing games that you can have installed at the same time
Most honest non biased reviewer on UA-cam by far!!! Thanks for always showing the pros and the cons!!
I appreciate that! Trying to make a rad gaming environment where playing video games is the focus
@@julienmelnick so basically the storage device that i have its 1Tb and only will allow old gen games to ge downloaded on it and wont allow new gen games to be downloaded on it, i want to buy a new one but dont want to waste my money if it wont work which one should i buy.
At this point Microsoft should've already make a 3TB series X and a 1.5TB series S
This dude has me actually considering a series S over the X.
It’s worth it. I bit on the holiday bundle and it’s so much better than my OG Xbox one. Yes, I have my PC… but it’s so nice to just kick something on and get straight to playing.
Only thing u lose is storage really, any game the series X can run so can the series S
The Series X is WAY more powerful, man. Trust me, I know. Especially, if you have a LG-C1 OLED with 2.1 ports and 1GB internet. SMH. I HATE leaving my flat. LoL.
@@xonnathagreat7644 I can imagine, but with my experience with the series S, it's great especially after I got Game pass
@@xonnathagreat7644 the only difference is FPS, and for most games the S keeps up with the X. So I mean is it really all that much powerful? I mean I’m sure it is but doesn’t seem like the extra money
This is exactly what I needed. I knew there were options and couldn’t decide which. Thank you for helping me to the route I thought I needed to with the 5TB 😊
Just upgraded my xbox one to the series s and was stuck on how my seagate 4T wouldn't play X|S games...then BOOM. Your vid showed and and explained it so perfectly I wasn't mad anymore. Thanks brother. Saved me a headache.
Anybody else just confused during this entire video
I’ll just summit up for you basically if you have the series S like I do and you have an external hard drive for it if it’s not optimized for the Xbox series S or X you can play on the external hard drive but if it is, optimize for the Xbox series, S and X it has to be on your Xbox itself
So ur telling me $200 is cheapest option for storage 💀
They were cheaper
@@TheChristianGamer Fr?
@@brayluvsuyt2552 yea the demand for them went up because people wanted them for there consoles and on top of that there was a shortage of them due to Covid and parts to manufacture hdd and ssd aren’t as plentiful since companies are trying to phase them out it is said that by the year 2028 there will no longer be any hdd your best bet is to buy off of Facebook market place or try to find used like new ones on Amazon
@@brayluvsuyt2552 now for 80-100$ you are only able to buy a 1tb hdd but I know a company that takes used hdd and refurbishes them called Avolusion 16tb for around 100$ or 3tb for 50-60$
he dont realize that he is rich enough to buy
I use an ssd and honestly yeah I feel like an external storage option is better than the expansion cards which are honestly really overpriced
I have an external one as well but my xbox says that it can only store like the xbox one games on it and that the series s games have to be stored on the internal storage
@@kvngodum4239 from what I’ve seen you can store the series s/x games on the external and just transfer it to the internal when you want to play, but they could have changed it since then
@@deletusthyfetus637 you can only store it
@@mehtalcypress but can you play from it or you need to transfer for the internal ssd?
@@BoliveiraNTPW you have to transfer it to the internal ssd
Well... I bought the series S 2 weeks ago, on a black friday deal for 199€... 2 days later I saw the seagate 1Tb expansion on sale for 90€!!! Since I would have to buy an external drive, didn't think twice and bought the expansion card! I think I made a preety good deal!✌️
you got a steal on that expansion card!!
@@CurryMonster24 yeah!😂 I was lucky! I was already going to buy an external, but at that price, I couldn't resist! But it wouldn't be an issue for me to move games from the internal to the external drive tbh
1TB Seagate Expansion for 90€!? Never, ever.
@@Fruchtpfote dude, I'm telling you... I think the store made a mistake on the price. They ran out of stock in 2 days, and it's a big company here, at least 50 stores in the country.
@@tweaksilva7253 you will never find that kind of sale in asian country mate. pity me :'
The 5tb you have posted in the link is on sale for 110 at this current moment in time. Huge steal you actually saved me.
I have a small and fast external SSD for back-compat games, *AND* a large (yet slow) HDD for storing games that I'm not currently playing (but don't want to delete). Like chocolate and peanut butter, they're two great things that work great together! The external SSD is about 4x faster, which isn't a small difference for me. And going for only a small SSD kept the price of the combination down.
There are some very large games that *have* been updated for the X|S, yet still can be run off an external drive. Two examples are State of Decay 2 and Halo: MCC, and there are many more. Halo: MCC is 106 GB, so I don't want to be running that big a game off a hard drive when I could be running it off of an SSD that's about 4x faster! A typical inexpensive external HDD (5400 RPM) isn't just slower for sustained transfer speeds, it's even slower still when you consider seek times. Yuck! So while the external hard drive might be only 3x slower for a sustained transfer (such as transferring games), it might be 5x (or even worse) to actually *load* a game off of an external drive due to those seek times. I can live with an external HDD being 3x slower than a decent SSD for storing games, as I can set it to transfer games when I go to sleep, or whatever. But 5x slower for playing a game, especially a large game, is tough when I don't always have a lot of time to play.
Why did you get an external ssd when you can’t play games off it that requires the internal ssd? And the transfer speeds armt much faster then a hdd
@@wardraven8755 I play a lot of games that can be loaded off an external SSD (Halo: MCC, State of Decay 2, and many more). I typically install once and leave it there, so the speeds to transfer back and forth aren't especially important to me. I find typical loading times significantly better on a good USB SSD significantly better than an external HDD.
I've got a 4tb external Seagate xbox specific drive. It's been my saviour, as I have 4 kids, and often their cousins and stepbrothers/sisters are often visiting and taking over my series x. So having a huge library of kid friendly and local cooperative/competitive games available without needing to stream at low speed is a massive bonus
Dude get em a series s
Yeah I have a 2TB mechanical hard drive hooked up to my Series X that is currently 97% full, so during Boxing Week I plan to go out and buy a 5TB drive and move the contents of the 2TB drive on to it and then use that 2TB drive on my Series S in the spare room. Both consoles will benefit!
Beautiful explained so I could understand exactly what the product does as when I brought it I was under the assumption that you could play all the games off the external storage this isn’t the case 10/10 for explaining this bro
I just bent over for Microsoft and took 2, 2 TB SeaGate expansion cards..... I don't truly agree with the price but seeing that it's a small and fast storage device for series X/S console I figured it'll be better on the long run. I still use my old external HD but those are for Xbox One or older Xbox games.
Suks to be you, glad you can afford it tho
Not rich but work 2 jobs, money is good but I do get exhausted.....
I have an 8TB branded XBox external drive and it is full. It is pretty quick for a spinning disk, but it is not as quite as fast as a USB3 SSD. The prices for SSDs are coming down, but the massive size of games these days still require quite a bit of space that would exponentially shoot up the cost. I am thinking of trying out a 4+ 3.5" USB3.1 Raid Enclosure to see how that pans out. Having 16TB with 4x enterprise 3.5" HDD's can get you about the same speed at least with sequential reads and writes. And faster for more drives. Maybe that can be a topic to explorer on the channel.
bro is answering all of my questions about the external storage! cheers!
Just came across this video not knowing the difference between all the storage option and this video just smashed my confusion out the window I now know exactly what I need🤣
Thanks bro👊🏽
So glad to help man!
I usually just transfer the optimize games to external to free up space and transfer whatever game back when I want to play it so I don't have to redownload them. It saves a lot of time and space on the internal drive.
Best option long term for me was buying the Seagate ssd 1tb which was on sale here in the UK last year at £140 and I use an old 4tb WD passport external USB iv had for many years to store the bulk of my games. I really like the Seagate "memory card" style coz it's really portable and doubles my storage. I also use two consoles between my own house and girlfriends house so it's really easy to take my games to both consoles and maintain the original hard drive space on each console.
can i put captured on the seagate one just ordered one wanna make sure i can use it for captures
Very concise and explanatory. Subscribed 💯
I found a wd 1tb external ssd for 90 then got the official 512gb seagate. All new games go to the seagate and everything else goes on the external. In my experience with hdd and ssd the ssd is easily worth the extra money for a bit less space. Only exception being if you really want tons of cold storage.
How does that ssd work
@@rubennn1 both work great, no issues. The external is closer to 50-60 now. Plug into back of xbox.
@@zachkirby4490 I’ve bought the ssd don’t like externals cus you have to download the games
I have the Seagate 8TB HDD USB Hub with the Green LED. It's awesome. For the capacity and the USB ports gained.
Got the Series S. Best decision ever! I got an 8TB external and I have tons of games saved on it. Transfer speeds aren’t that bad.
can i put xbox captured/clips onto it that’s what i’m looking into right now
I just love how you shake the hard drive.
In my opinion the best advice it will be the simplest:
Could not buy the series x either on launch either now in the 500-510 dollars/ euros: either you buy the series s and the external Seagate with the 1 terabytes capacity, so 530 dollars/ euros and you can manage your installed games or you stay with the series s only you install indie+ triple a games= 5-60 games ( depending the games) or you just download and play the three triple a titles like forza horizon 5+ c.o.d+ other games and when you beat the campaign you uninstall it and replace with the new game.
Personally, I see the Series S + the seagate card as a payment plan that doesn't need a credit check. Handy. My TV doesn't need the extra bells and whistles of an X, and my tiny room does not need more gameboxes fighting it out on my shelves. But with GamePass I know I'll download more than I would if I was strictly buying. So... Get the Series S this month, and then save up and pick up the Seagate once I have 100% certainty that I use the system enough to warrant it. Win win in my opinion. :)
6/11/2023 i used a 5 year old ssd that is pcie to usb 3.1 on a series s i bought today. It named it sabrent expansion card when i plugged it in. I am able to play games marked x/s off of an external hard drive with 0 lag
Two more things to consider when picking between an external SSD or HDD,
SSDs are going to be more durable. HDDs have gotten a lot more durable over time but there are still moving parts on the inside that can be jolted out of place from a bad drop or just moving it around with the console. SSDs have no moving parts so at least for me the piece of mind that I can throw my drive into my bag and not worry about it is really important.
Transfer speeds and consistency. The difference in speeds honestly won't be huge since they'll both be limited by the USB 3 port, but an SSD will have a higher speed much more consistently, and won't slow down as more games are stored on it. HDDs can slow down a lot as they get closer to full, with a 5TB though I doubt anyone will get there quickly, but that is still a factor that SSDs just don't have to worry about.
Honestly I didn't even know 5TB hard drives had gotten so cheap, that's about half the price from back when I built my computer originally and as I'm planning my next build now that info is extremely helpful. For an Xbox however, everyone will have different needs but personally I'd feel much better getting a 2TB or so external SSD and probably even velcro mounting it to the console. The 5TB drive would still be a great deal but I know I'd never use that much storage, so the benefits of an SSD just outweigh the bargain here lol.
Great video!
Facts!
I just got the new Xbox series with 1TB. It makes a difference
Best review so far , simple and complete.
May in few years they bring down price or ssd got cheaper as it should be
Great video. Very thorough and informative. Thanks. I just subscribed.
Thank you. This was very helpful!
Super helpful, answered my questions
Or you could buy the 1to 2 ssd memory card for the console and get that external hdd for games the don’t require the internal ssd. With that said i went the route you suggested on my ps5 and i only use the 6 tb external hdd for ps4 games. And i plan on getting a ssd to expand my internal storage
The names of all the items was confusing but by the end I knew what to get. Also you have a lot of charm witch makes you pop out and not blend in with the other videos.
I just got the series s. Downloaded hogwarts, wwe and madden and I’m at 72%. It’s not that bad imo because I usually don’t play more than 2-3 games.
Thank you so much for this video
I wish they would advertise the actual usable storage, or at least attempt to make the storage reach the advertised size even with the OS and system files. I do feel like in this day and age the Series S and X should've launched with base models of 1tb with options of 2tb internal storage.
i dont know why but i love this guy
i just got a 1TB ssd for my series s and i love it. the speed is very fast and 1TB is a lot more than some ppl think. but i am a pc player 1st so i don’t need the large amount on my series s. but i totally agree with the hard drive if u only use series s for all ur gaming. the more storage the better
Do you still have to transfer the games from SSD to internal to play the xs games
@@isaiahdiaz312 no that’s only with the external hard drive i think
@@_Tenka unless the games didnt have the X|S icon on it but if it have, he need to transfer it to internal.
They should give us the option to choose if we want to upgrade our games to internal storage instead of forcing us to upgrade it. Smart delivery is actually really stupid for that reason.
I have a 2tb external HDD that I used on my ps4 for cold storage and playing previous gen games the 500gb expansion card that I picked up for 85 UK pounds in a sale.
Really helpful, thank you ❤

Do you know what really bothered me how the Xbox series X has more storage than the series S, which is a completely digital Consol. You would think that since you need to download pretty much everything on that system you would have more storage.
Very helpful information.
Great video and advice. Thanks
Sadly the best way to do it is to get a series X, Buy a 2TB internal storage SSD, along with a 12tb external.
Yeah that's my thought too. It does'nt make sense to me to buy a series S because I will need more storage at some point and so at the end I will pay almost the same price. So it's a better idea to buy a series X directly I think.
Prices on ssd expansion cards is coming down. Seagate anounced a 25 percent price cut and western digital has a product coming out any day now.
Don't forget that most games can still run off non ssd external storage drives.
Samsung T7 500gb 3.2 Gen 2 usb SSD you can't go wrong with this little marvel.
So far it plays almost all of my stored games in it, except WARZONE 2.0 for some reason.
Bf V, BF 1, BF 2042, BF 4, BF hardline, insurgency:sandstorm, GRiD Legends, DiRT 5, DiRT 2, warface, Forza 5 run like a charm on the series S through samsung T7 SSD. Plus a 3.2 Gen 2 usb protocol ensures study data transfer speeds without flactuations even if the usb 3.0 port of the series S is slower...
Bigger failure than transfer speed is mechanical failure. There are 3rd party options to the memory stick. Runs about $50 for the 512GB SSD and $100 for the 1TB, + $10 for the adapter itself.
They honestly should just advertise the storage as how much you can actually use
My download speed is around 450-500 mbps. I literally have to delete and download every day it's such a pain. I only have enough storage for 2 or 3 games anyways. Nba 2k23 takes up 175 gbs for me and cod takes up like 110gb.
I think we need to be specific the difference in transfer speeds between spinning drives and SSD's. I have a 512GB WD SN530 SSD in one of the cheapest USB enclosures I could find on Amazon and I have an older 1TB WD Passport with USB 3.0 transfer speeds and a spinning drive. These were not intentional selections for Xbox S storage, they're merely what I had laying around not being used for anything else and why buy what you already own?
Copying Far Cry 6 (61.38GB) from internal storage to the spinner had speeds all over the place and took 29:04.
Copying from internal storage to the SSD sustained 1.12 Gbps and took 14:46.
Copying from the spinner to internal storage seemed to average around 820Mbps and took 10:18
Copying from the SSD to internal storage sustained 2.52 Gbps and took 3:45
Backing up your stuff to a spinner is painfully slow. That said, it shouldn't really matter if you have enough storage to hold your stuff to where you're only writing to it once. If you've got a small 2.5" spinner in a slim enclosure then you've got something reasonably portable. Writing from a spinner isn't terrible. Most full size modern titles are going to take 20-30 minutes to copy and while that sucks, it could be worse and hopefully people can just do a little planning ahead. Main point with a spinner, buy as big as you can afford with the plan to store your stuff on there forever.
I love my series S so much! Question for you…I’m seriously considering getting a PS5 and leaning towards the digital edition. I would love to hear your thoughts. I have an Xbox that I play a lot of cross platform games (COD, etc) on, so I would only be using my PS5 for Sony exclusives and Sony exclusives only. How many Sony exclusive games would you say I could probably fit on the digital edition? Ten? Five? I know that’s a silly question but I’m just curious. I have a 1TB Seagate USB hard drive on my PS4 that I might just port over. I’m also a PS PLUS subscriber. Thanks for any input.
PS: I also have a series X and never use the disc drive. I use game pass and if I love a game, I buy the digital.
And I only have like 4 physical PS4 games. Most of my PS4 collection is digital.
Glad to see your channel is still cooking!
Ps5 has about 600gb usable space. But they have an extra nvme slot so can expand really easy and cheaper than the xbox.
Storage Card for Xbox Series Games (Quick Resume). External SSD for One , 360 and Original games - that I also use for phone and PC backup. Other people already said that the moving parts of HDD will limit the lifetime
Remember when you could literally just insert a disc lmao
With cloud gaming for many game pass games I don’t feel that the storage is that laughable.
That’s why I brought the sea gate soo I could play it on the drive
I currently use a USB 3.0 external with my One S to keep games for later so I don't have to download them again. If you are like me and have Comcast, they have a 1TB/month limit before they start charging you more, it's easy to hit if you load up a Xbox and a PC with new games on top of a month of streaming. Moving a game from a external is way faster also.
What? Cable companies are capping your downloads? I'm glad I got WOW internet for now. All this price gouging makes me wanna like in the wilderness.
Better a slot expansion for my series s. Thanks for the explanation 👍
No problem
The transferring process of games is such a pain in the ass though. Unless you have a large selection of digital Xbox, 360, or Xbox One games that haven't been optimized for Series S then I'd recommend the external HDD/SSD. I just said to hell with it and bought the proprietary memory card, definitely not cheap though.
yea it is pricey
I'm using 1 tb nvme ssd with enclosure, the build cost me around 50+ usd with 2-2.6 Gbps, transferring 100gb games only takes 4-6 minutes max.
I got a 2TB and let me tell you it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. My internet speeds are so slow that transferring a game is so much more efficient and faster. I got over 80 games installed and there’s room for more! Great review !
Is it an external hard drive? Does any usb external one work with the series s
2 options now Seagate, and now WD makes a 1TB NvMe drive for the XBox Series X/S and it's only $149 and games can be played right off of it. Plugs into the slot in the back just like the Seagate one.
You could also use a much larger internal 2230 m.2 SSD and a m.2 cloner to actually upgrade the main SSD
Thank you my friend your a life saver
I did this even on my xbox one I still use a 2tb hdd for my series s it saves a ton of time
so many games are available on the cloud now and with a good internet connection run amazingly well there are still loads of great Xbox one games also 360 and original box games that can be run straight off my external I may consider an internal card when the price comes down I'm sure in the future it will but I'm cool for now I love the Series S and it still looks amazing on my 4ktv
Got the Samsung T7 SSD for my Series S. I don't mind waiting for a few minutes to move games.
Thank you for information ❤. I did sub you.
I have a 4 tb hard drive for storing non Series X Games. I bought a Black 1 tb SSD because I don't want to use the Series X SSD because it can't be replaced when it dies. The Series X Games Play perfectly on the Plug in SSD.
Sorry if this was asked before, but how do you guys get around the HDD/SSD/USB port always being on?
You got a new subscriber family
welcome
I bought one that doesn’t let me play games from it I needed this video thank you
I was a sucker and bought the 512gb ssd memory card for my new series s. Got it for $89.99 which was a bit of a discount i guess. Apex and horizon 5 took up like 250gb themselves so i needed just a bit more
Playing through the cloud is the best thing they added to game pass, takes this issue away and 9/10 its flawless
it is interesting
I really was not able to build my schedule around transferring hard drives. It just takes forever to transfer games external.
I have the series s and I don't need external storage
Like prime examples Destiny 2 and Forza Horizon5. Destiny 2 was 108gb and Forza Horizon 5 is 154gb, boom and that’s all that’s on my internal hard drive in my Series S. So I went ahead and bought the Seagate 4tb external HDD with all of the Assassin’s Creed games (besides Odyssey and Valhalla), also Kingdom Hearts 3 (soon the Kingdom Hearts 1.5+2.5 games), then I have PGA 2k21, Monster Energy Supercross 4, and all of my apps and other things, and the HDD still has 3.6tb of storage able to be used
what a great video ty for uploading
no problem
With the new update I hope you included that the Seagate external SSD hard drive is your only option or Xbox x or s games Xbox One games will be able to be played through USB external storage but Manny Xbox s or x games will not be played on a USB external storage
Would ssd or hdd need a power source? I plan on doing van life, and i need to watch all power consumption.
My setup is as follows in a storage tier system
Xbox internal and WD Black 1 TB Memory Card are for the Series X/S games
External WD Black USB SSD 2 TB is used for Xbox One titles
External WD Black USB HDD 4 TB used for overflow and Xbox/Xbox 360 titles
Works good for me
And there all organized
So everything from the present is ready to rock if I take the console anywhere
And I just leave behind the the older titles for here
I bought the 520 gb ssd and it's great I have enough for my liking I have 700+ available storage , and that's more then I need all I play is cod or just on game pass
Something you wrote wrong makes your entire explanation feels off
The thing I don't get is what's the point of buying a series s over a series x if we have to expand the storage for undreds of euros anyway.
I refuse to pay the inflated Expansion Card prices, not when PS5-compatible NVMes are literally half the cost during sales, and have extra *utility* that you don't get with the Expansion Cards. For example, if you decide to sell your PS5, or to change to an even bigger NVMe later on, you can immediately repurpose that NVMe drive inside a PC, or put it into a cheap enclosure for use as an external drive. The expansion cards are pretty much useless outside of the Xbox Series consoles.
So I went with the "cold storage" solution on my Series X where I move games back and forth between internal and external storage. It's less convenient for sure, but I just time it to coincide with tasks that I'd do anyway, like preparing meals, folding laundry, showering, vacuuming, etc. Usually by the time I finish the task, the game-moving has concluded and I'm ready to play.
Meanwhile my PS5 has a 2TB NVMe for just $10 more than the 1TB expansion card.
I have the regular Xbox one...and with a 2 TB external hard drive, its now not reading the storage drive anymore :(
Thanks man...Im already using 2 2tb external drives anyway with no problems ..I have £100 Amazon gift card and very nearly just got caught out with the 'official xbox ' seagate 2tb 'game drive' £78 wich looks and reads like it's a cheaper alternative and the word 'expansion' is cleverly absent so I just had a look outta curiosity and thats no different from what Im doing anyway..! Very nearly ripped myself off there..
As a girlfriend getting this for my boyfriend for his birthday this was very useful and I can actually understand what he is talking about I love this and thanks for your help
No problem
this is helpful thank you
I got an extra 1TB for my PS5 , but for the series S I just got a 2TB and it wasn’t cheap but it needed to happen
The reality of modern video games is that they are too complicated that there's actually an acedemy specialized in offering video game classes :) So with that being said, a busy person like myself hardly has the time to learn and play more than one of these games at a time, if I can even get to do that but I mostly enjoy the older simpler games that don't take too much space, time and effort to learn so I think the Model S is still well worth it despite the disk space issue.
I do download delete...
Once a week, I clean up and just download over night anything I like to try.
Weed out the bleh and download a few more.
I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to be transferring my series s/x games back and forth because I’m not able to play it on an external hard drive. The company advertises it poorly and glad I got my refund back but don’t know which costveffective external drive is best for me
Got a Samsung 512gb 3.1 usb flash drive for 31 bucks put almost all my games on it and ran fortnight etc fine . Also transfer speed was about 2.5gbps to internal storage
Warzone is now about 95% of my internal storage. 1 more update and im going to have to buy the proprietary storage.
