  • I Put A Disc Drive Into The Disc-Less Xbox One S All Digital - This version of Xbox has all of the connections for a disc drive, has an eject button and even has the cutout for the disc drive in the top metal plate. Obviously the only option I had was to put a disc drive into it to see if it would work!

      It's kind of a dilemma.
      I still own a 2014 Xbox One. Back in the old days most digital games were priced outragiously. They would even ask 50 bucks for a year old FIFA game. (Anyone going to Game Stop like stores and you can find old FIFA games for pretty much free!)
      Now most digital games are cheaper than the normal physical copies so I used the drive for..........less than 10 installs of physical games.
      So yes. There is kind of a market for it, but it was smarter if they added a Xbox One X model too.
      This is a passing house between a normal Xbox and one that supports 4K.

Physical copies of games can be found for most triple A games for $40 within a month or two of release, and $30 or less with a few months. The only real exception being games that are run in limited printings, which isn't an option for the Xbox market at the moment.

It would all be software to support it,which they've already got for USB drives I'm sure they could set it up in the same way.

    I've just stumbled onto your channel and subscribed. I love the format, no flash or gimmicks.
    Wondering if you'd be up for testing if you can add a secondary storage drive on the unused SATA port in the XB One SAD. I know the power connector on the board is wrong. I can't find anything online for a pre-made 11-pin power to SATA power adapter, but I'd think making one using a spare 11-pin power cable and a standard SATA power cable would be fairly easy using the public SATA power wiring diagrams and a multimeter to test the output and distribution on the 11-pin connector.
    I'm guessing that's a challenge you'd be up to, although it might be a lot of trouble for something that probably won't work, but if you're interested, I'd be down to make the power adapter if you could send the power output readings from the 11-pin port on the board, and mail it out to you. I'm assuming you're based out of the US or Canada, according to your accent.

      You still need the matching key. On 360 you could get it from the drive itself, but there's no drive in this disk-less console. You can also get it from the system, but you would need to hack it first and there are no hacks for Xbox One.
