USING THIS METHOD YOU CAN UPGRADE YOUR CONSOLE TO 500GB, 1TB AND 2TB SSDs. 960Gb SSDs will be recognized as 500Gb drive and after installing Xbox OS you have to connect that SSD to your PC and manually extend "User Content" partition to maximum available space. You can use software like Acronis, Mini tool Partition Wizard etc.
Can I upgrade to 2tb on the original Xbox one ?
@@NickKokkinos sure! 2Tb is a maximum supported capacity.
@1misanthropist most likely the official tool will format your 4Tb SSD as a 2Tb drive. Then you have to connect that SSD drive to a PC and extend "user content" partition to maximum size.
Does doing this make ur xbox one s faster or some think with a ssd
@@dustyfarm5r577 It will faster: boot, install games, load games and it will load your missions and saves faster than with HDD.
This makes the Xbox One X feel how it was designed to run! They should have just included an SSD from the getgo.
They also had a plan for NVMe SSD but for some reason they ditched that idea. You can check out my last video about Xbox disassembly where I was showing unpopulated pads for M.2 slot.
Price rise s
@@ElectronicsComputers They wanted to save it for the Series X and S
At the time to expensive
It would too expensive to do that. 1tb or 2tb ssd cost a lot, which will make the One X price even higher.
This tutorial got straight to the point and stayed there - you can pause and then follow steps, nice and easy. While I was swapping out the 1TB drive for a 2TB SSD I figured it was worth getting the fan out and giving that a clean, which wasn't too difficult. And then much to my surprise, when I put everything back together and reinstalled, all was well! No scripts required. Thank you.
Thank you for the comment! I'm glad I could help you!
@@ElectronicsComputers What's also impressive is that you've replied to nearly every comment as well. That takes some serious dedication 👏
@@ElectronicsComputers what if I want to transfer all my games to a ssd. and then install that ssd?
Did the XBOX recognize that the drive has 2TBs instead of 1TB?
And you didn’t need to partition your new drive?
I’m looking to swap from 500GB to 1TB SSD -which I’m hoping it will recognise without partitioning..(don’t have a windows pc..)!
It's been almost two months now and I thought I'd come back to thank you once again for such a clear, to the point tutorial. As a Games Pass user, I'm constantly installing and uninstalling the various games on offer to try and the still hasn't been a single issue.
I'm glad I could help!
What size storage was your old hard drive? And what size SSD did you install in it? I have a 500gig one S and don’t know which sized SSD would be recognized as a 500gig model. I’m guessing 500gigs should work but eh don’t know
@@EastDallasKicks Xbox supports 500Gb, 1Tb and 2Tb SSDs or HDDs. I installed 1Tb SSD into my console.
@@ElectronicsComputers Thanks
@@EastDallasKicks mine is an Xbox One X, originally with a 500GB HDD. The replacement drive is a Samsung EVO 860 1TB. And it's still running smooth as butter.
Hands down one of the best tutorials on TH-cam. Worked 100% the first time. I have been wanting to make my main HDD on my XB1X a SSD for a while, and this did it without all the crazy scripts and crazy files. Thank you!
Glad I could help

After the Xbox One X Update today. I got my Xbox start up Animation back!!!! This by far this is the best Video out there on the 2TB SSD Upgrade!!!! I installed the SSD 3 weeks ago.
Thank you for the comment! I'm happy to help!
One of the greatest improvements with internal SSD is *swap Page file & partitions* for os and games,Much faster than slow mechanical drive.
How can one do this
Just upgraded my Xbox One X to a 1TB WD SSD. This tutorial was so well done, I had zero issues and it works great! Thank you kindly! Subscribed!

Great tutorial! I upgraded my One X 1tb to a 2tb SSD and did the offline update. It worked perfectly... no scripts necessary 👍
Great job 👍 I'm happy to help!
For those of you who followed this video and wonder what happened to the Xbox One X processor explosion animation when booting it has to be installed seperately or you can wait for an Xbox update and they install it free when they update. This video was great and made it easy to do. 2013Electronics&Computers you might want to make a video on how to install the Xbox One S and X boot animation for those that want it on their consoles as this procedure does not include it. It is not needed, but some people may want it. For those that do not want to wait on an update:P
Just wait for a few days maybe a week and boot-up animation will be back.
The HDD on my old Xbox One X just died, so thank you for this very easy to follow guide. Now I don't have to buy a new Xbox and it runs much better than before 👍
Great job! I'm happy to help!
I was in e101 & e106 Loop on my Xbox one x after doing all the steps. New SSD didn’t work... but now it works again! It was a developer / insider build after all. Had to wait for new OSU to come out a few days ago to fix the insider build corrupt files. I Plugged in new OSU1 with flash stick and it updated great. Then I joined insider hub on the console and went to -> settings -> manage devices -> unenroll Xbox one x from developer program -> restart -> reset to factory. Now I’m back to release build with no issues and a new SSD. Woo hoo!
Good job!
Pretty straightforward just open, clean (if you want) your Xbox, pop the new ssd, apply update and enjoy! I change from a 1tb mechanical to a 2tb ssd and the system runs flawlessly 1.6tb free
Great job!
Thank for the wonderful tutorial. I installed a 500gb ssd and I also applied the cryonaut grizzly. I did not change thermal pads because my xbox one x was quiet already but I saw that 4 of the original pads were half stepping on the chips so I cut the remaining pads and placed it where it was missing. I did this upgrade because after I bought a 2k gaming monitor my xbox was so slow and laggy. Now it is so responsive.. Thank you so much 🙏
Nice work!
Just wanted to say thank you. Your instructions were spot on, and the whole thing was all done, and back up and running again in about half an hour.
I'm so glad I could help you! Good job!
How did u clone ur stuff to another drive?
@@lilx1652 I didn't, I copied the games I wanted to keep to an external drive, then copied them back to the internal (now much faster) drive after.
@@kyorin6526 do u have any videos on how I can do that
@@lilx1652 Attach a USB drive with enough space to your Xbox, then transfer the games to it. You do this on the xbox itself, you don't need to hook the drives up to a PC.
Thanks for this guide, I upgraded my xbox with a 2TB SSD and its working just fine. Thanks again for this video!
I'm glad I could help you!
@Kieran Rice games loaded 4 seconds faster
Damn bro that drive is probably worth more then the console
@Kieran Rice None so far. Then again its only been a week
@@christopherchoate154 lol! the drive in the xbox was busted anyway. I went with SSD because it has less moving parts so less chance of breaking again

I got my series x too and I’m currently swapping my Xbox one x hard drive to a Samsung 870 evo ssd 1Tb 🤘🏽
@@FxzzyXVII I hope everything went smoothly!?
I accidentally unplugged my Xbox One X during an update and bricked the hard drive. I had an unused SSD laying around and decided to try this. I had just bought a new screwdriver set a few months ago and it happened to have the right torx head included.
What an upgrade from the old HDD! Little did I know that ruining the old hard drive would allow me to fix the Xbox One X and make it a beast!! Thanks for this video! It took me about an hour to do everything right. So worth it over sending it in for repairs or trading it in for a Series S!
Great job! I'm happy to help!
Thank you man!!!! I really wish I watched this video before buying a sata to usb cable and thinking I needed to do a whole bunch of crap to fix my Xbox all I needed was a usb flash drive and a hard drive and it took only 5 minutes to do thanks!!!

Any tips for getting it back on?
@@NightingaleSong I rested mine on its back, where the usb ports are so the power button is pointing up in the air, i worked the left side in first then the right, this was quite easy on a table so i could crouch and see the grooves on the side. For me anyways. Good luck
Great movie. Perfect light, perfect voice and ofc perfect description. Thx.
Thank you for the comment!
Great video ... You guys do know if you don't feel comfortable opening your system you can plug in external SSD And just install games you want to load fast .. cheers
os will run faster with ssd
Ryan Kallenbach I understand.. But that's for if you want to boot up faster when you power on correct ??
It will load everything faster. Ssd is faster than a mechanical drive. No moving parts.
Ryan Kallenbach 😒 dude if someone doesn’t care about fast boot up they could always go with external SsD and install games on that and load alittle bit faster
That's no fun. Just like my pc. I have 1 ssd to run my OS, and 5 more ssd's for games, music, movies, pics, and programs/apps. Everything runs a lot faster with ssd's I put a 250gb ssd for my os and apps on the Xbox one x. Then I have 2 4tb ssd's. Made a big difference when I put a ssd inside the xbox
Did this a couple months back. Best thing i could have done to it.
Given how the HDD bottleneck isn't with the drive as much as the controller MS chose to use, what kind of speed improvement did you expect and what did you end up actually getting?
@@zybch you have done It? If not...shut up.
Whats so cool about it
Mikey C its a night and day difference. I mean I went from a 5200 RPM HDD to a 1TB SSD. Games load like a PC. Texture pop in seems to have gone away to.
I did this over a year ago with the wd blue 1tb. It almost halved my load and fast travel times. External SSD loads are comparable. Internal SSD makes the dashboard snappy too. I repurposed the old drive as an external. Was worth every penny.
1:07 I got stuck trying to open that clip, but I just remove the circuit board attached to it and successfully installed a 1TB SSD into my Xbox One X. Great guide. Thanks!
Nice work!
Clear and concise tutorial, which skipped the irrelevant bits. Great stuff. Many thanks.
Thank you for the comment!
Awesome guide man, no bullshit just a straight tutorial 👌
Thank You!
I loved listening to your speaking voice, great video!
Thank you for the comment!
I just wanted to say thank you! I did this whole thing (clean drive install- I had moved my games to a USB drive to copy back) in about 20 minutes and it went perfectly!
I'm glad I could help you!
My xbox was loading the dashboard so slowly... when I looked for a solution it recommended and hard drive change. Found your video, and I'm here to say this worked wonderfully and sped up my console.
Thanks
Great job! Glad I could help.
Followed this and went super smooth. The most difficult part was putting it back together..
I'm glad I could help you!
Thank you for this tutorial! It was very easy to follow and I really was happy with all of the links you included in the description to help with locating the resources you referenced.
For any one wondering, I used a Samsung - 870 QVO 2TB Internal SATA III SSD in my Xbox One X and had zero issues. It feels like it cut the initial load times for Red Dead Redemption 2 at least in half.
Good job 👏. I'm happy to help!
Any extra steps you had to do since the original drive was only 1 TB?
Nope! The new drive needed to be set up with the Xbox formatting either way, so the size before and after do not make a difference.
@@jimmycalzone Good to know, thanks! Now I can't wait to put a SSD in my XBox One X.
Thanks for the video, you have the most simplest instructions out all the videos out there. I just upgraded my XBox One X to a Samsung 2TB SSD. I did ran into issues installing OSU1, but I successful in the end maybe from a combination of doing a system erase and shut down on the XBox, and by doing a full NTFS format in the thumb drive (I did not use the "quick format").
I'm glad I could help you!
Quesrion. You put a 2tb in directly and then used osu1 and it read as 2tb or 1tb? I want to do this but am afraid it will only read as 1tb unless u install scripts etc which I don't want to do lol
@@MarcoS-yd9pf After installing a clean Osu1, my XBox One X read 2TB. After all the format process, it showed 1.7 TB of useable space. I was actually going install a 1TB, cause this was the original size that it came with. However I read multiple posts from the interweb saying that Xbox 1 One X supports a maximum 2TB HDD, so I took a leap of fate. I had trouble installing osu1 at first, but I was able to fix this by using the onboard format and reset options within the Xbox's trouble shooter. Also, my Xbox loss the animation that appears after turning it on, and just goes straight into the Home Screen menu.
@@DaBudaa1 oh weird. I like that boot up logo lol. Hmm. Not sure what to do then. When you say clean install, u mean the one right off Microsoft website right? On the USB flash drive or whatever?
@@MarcoS-yd9pf I installed Osu1 from a USB flash drive, that I downloaded from Microsoft.
Thanks for the great video -- couldn't spring for a Series X, but your steps did the job to install Samsung 1Tb 870 EVO SSD -- haven't seen boot times much faster, but game save loads much faster -- appreciate your making it so simple!
Glad it helped

This video was right on I did buy another SSD and installed it into my One X. I tried to clone it via PC, but ran into some issues so I downloaded the Op system and started from scratch. If you plan on doing a Clone it is probably best to use a cloning dock station. I ordered a cheap plastic case to put the old Sata Drive in and will use it as an external drive for extra storage. Upgrade went very smooth and the One X was easy to take a part. I went ahead and cleaned out the dust while I had it taken a part. Thanks 2013Electronics&Computers!

So how much does doing this improve load times? I just sold my Series S and went back to a One X, and I'm considering doing this seeing as your instructions are so clear and easy to follow.
with internal MX500 or 860EVO one x is very fast.
SSD on any console the fuckin best choice
My error says "There is a problem with save games .." Then reboot and i get E105. Can i format my HDD deleting partitions and updating offline would fix it? OR i need to buy a new HDD?
at this point better if you go with new SSD.

Hi there. I successfully installed my EV 860 SSD and now trying to do the OSU updating but I am getting error codes 101 and 106. I have done some research and many people say that the new drive needs to be properly partitioned before putting inside the console. I just put a fresh (brand new) SATA SSD in as per your video but its failing to update using the offline method. It gets to 4% then error codes on me. Any advice please?
There's no need to format it, the console will do it itself. Did you participate in Xbox insider program? If so you have to unenroll from it.
@@ElectronicsComputers understood. Thank you.

Great job!
Thank you for the video. Just wanted to clarify with everyone, I'm using a MAC OS plus an Android smartphone. I was able to download the Xbox offline update file, unzip it with WinZip app on Mac, or extract the files on my Android, then copy the file to my flash drive. So far everything works with performing the update on xbox offline after replacing my Xbox One X HDD to the SDD.
Happy to help! I just wonder how you can run Mac OS on an Android smartphone? And you did you copy files to NTFS USB drive from Mac OS/Android which doesn't support that file system?
Awesome video! Definitely easy to follow along with. As soon as I heard the offline update file was 5GB... I knew I'd have to go with the cloning option because my internet is atrocious and downloading those games again or that update file would be quite the process for me.
I always recommend "clean" OS installation but if it's not the option for you then just simply clone your drive. If you're cloning to a larger drive then you have to clone all partitions as is without automatically resizing them! And when the cloning is done resize manually the "user content" partition to maximum available space.

Your channel is no doubt one of the best if not the most straight up for XBOX tutorials - nice work!
Q. if I have an XBOX One X (scorpio edition) with a factory 1TB drive, is it possible to upgrade to a 2TB without scripts/using the exact same method above? You mention at the end of this video that there is no need for scripts when using the same capacity drive, so I'm little unsure.
Thank you for your comment! Xbox officially supports 500Gb, 1TB and 2TB HDD/SSD drives. So you can easily upgrade it without any problems. Never use those scripts because it may get you into some issues with the official updates and you may be unable to perform a hard reset. Moreover, I don't recommend using unknown third-party software.
Thanks, works well.

IMPORTANT NOTE: if you do not clone your drive, your Minecraft worlds will be lost. Those are NOT backed up to the cloud.
Alternatively, you can have a second Xbox One (any kind) on the same home network. On that second Xbox, use the "network transfer" option to copy Minecraft from your first Xbox. This will copy any saved worlds. Then after replacing the HDD in your first Xbox, you can network transfer Minecraft back.
Thanks for the tip!
Very nice guide! Do I still need to mess with the OSU files if I clone the original drive?
If you simply clone the drive there's no need for any extra movements. Simply replace it and you're good to go. But I always recommend performing clean OS installation for a number of reasons. if it doesn't work for you then simply clone the drive.
Damn, your video makes it really easy to do. In terms of SDD, can I use any brand that is SATA drive that matches the capacity of the original HDD?
Yes 500/1tb/2tb
It's really easy, just follow my instructions. You can use any 500Gb, 1Tb, 2Tb SATA HDD/SSD.
@@ElectronicsComputers Will microsoft brick your xbox when going from an 1TB HDD to an 2TB SSD and using all the space. 1TB HDD is just a joke when there is only 700GB left.
@@rallyscoot Xbox officially support 2Tb drives. So no worries! But if you install larger drive then you may experience some problems (e.g. you have to use some software to partition new drive, you cannot hard reset your console, issues with updates etc).
Thanks a lot bro this tutorial is an absolute life changer for Xbox One X users.
Glad it helped! I agree, the console upgrade makes a night and day difference compared to the hard drive. Additionally, the Xbox One X can be easily repaired, whereas if the Series S or X has a faulty SSD, it’s almost impossible to fix. I have dozens of these consoles in my repair shop that I bought for $50 each to use for donor parts.
Thank you so much, I wanted to let you know that this worked like a charm. I only installed the offline updates on my USB and then I installed that into the Xbox One X and it automatically installed the operating system and the updates.

Thanks! I'm happy to help!
This was a great video! Thanks to you, I had no issues with my upgrade
You're welcome!
Just changed my Xbox One X hdd to MX500 2TB due to HDD failure, thx for your video...
I'm glad I could help you!
William, I suspect I may have hard drives failure. How did you determine that your issue was hard drive related?
@@brentpurcell271 You have to connect your HDD to a computer and using some software check the SMART of your drive.
Didn't spect a tech tutorial by Leonard Cohen from heaven
I love his songs especially By the rivers dark.
SSD Drive = Solid State Drive Drive
For some reason, most IT technicians say "SSD drives" and I'm among them.
This is one Area where the PS4 Pro Shines. One Screw that is it. This is way too much work to swap out a Drive..
Agree! Microsoft hided the HDD deep in the guts.
Thank you this was very helpful not sure if i am brave enough to open my Xbox but with this walk through i will go for it
It's a very easy process just follow my instructions.
Even in 2024 this guide helps to install the OSU1 without waiting one month until MS updates the file with newer version so it would install. The trick is to take out the power cord after it has shut down (FAN has stopped) when you press reset the console. At least for me it worked after partitioning script. Before that I was going crazy, fighting 3 days with the 101 and 106 Errors.
Happy to help!
SUCCESS !!!!!!!
That was it , Microsoft updated the osu1 file that’s why it wasn’t working
Future note to self always download the osu1 file right before you format 😂🤣.!!!!!!
So did you download the files a couple weeks out then when you went to install them, it wouldn't work? I'm running into that same problem and was wondering if it's the install files. I've opened the Xbox again and made sure it's all hooked up properly and it seems to be good, but my install files aren't working. I'll try downloading the osu1 again.
MetalxXxMayhem yes and when I did that it gave an error ......so what I did after that , I downloaded the files from the Microsoft site at that moment , re ran the process and it worked
@@ewilson1979 That is reassuring. Thanks for the reply.
Just a follow up. It worked!!
@@MetalxXxMayhem that’s great 😃 and yes it’s still going strong with the animation and everything, can’t wait to play cyberpunk on it when it releases
I would definitely do this if the hard drive failed.
Probably best to do it BEFORE the drive fails, at least if you're planning to clone the drive.
For best performance all round use 850/860 EVO(not qvo) and crucial MX500 (not bx500)😋😋😋😎😏😏
I got a 860 evo 500gb and the installation fails do you know why?
@@bradenbramhall3036 what console do you use?

I use an xbox one s I went to best buy a bit ago bought a Samsung 860 evo it says 500gb on the box put it straight in the xbox then created the USB with the folder in the root then inserted usb into xbox clicked offline update and after I clicked it 1 second later failed error 101
@@bradenbramhall3036 its a common error lately.... I dont know why. SSD must be unformatted, with all partition deleted and use OSU1
It’s a headache. I did the whole process and the disassembling is just ridiculous. The worst part is the harddrive. I got a new SSD 1Tb and the offline updating system has stopped 3 times at 63% during the last step “applying update” for endless hours. I left it 24 hours the first time, 16 hours the second time and 4 hours the last time. The hardrive health in “crystaldiskinfo” is 100% healthy and it works great on PC (samsung 870 evo SSD). I have disassembled it 3 times, first time with new ssd, second time to put back the old hardrive, third time retrying the new ssd. I’m currently cloning the working disk onto the new ssd. So, one last assembling or disassembling before I give up. I guess 4th time was the charm, the ssd was still not recognized as a clone and the system went i to error e105, picked reset to factory, and then when restarted to error e102 and picked offline update but it still went ahead and downloaded something online, did an installation of something and then it worked. Finally fixed with new SSD.
Great job anyway! Usually this process is very smooth but there's lots of things that can go wrong.
Best Buy has Crucial 1 Terabyte SSD drives for $84 bucks. They are made by Micron which is known to make good products. The reviews are great. I added one to my PC and it is running perfectly. I may have to buy another one for my One X and use my PNY 500GB SSD in my PS4S.
mx500
Hat alles bestens geklappt, musste nur eine Werkseinstellungen danach durchführen.Super Anleitung
Happy to help!
I dont have a computer lol

2TB SSHD Model 🤷🏻♂️
Awesome video,waiting for 2tb drives to come down in price,usb is as fast as installing it internally,but you won't loose 200gb to OS.thanks for sharing
Happy to help!
@@ElectronicsComputers got a 1tb on usb at the moment,was gonna go straight to install it internally when i saw this video,only thing stopping me last minute was infact the loss of space,hence the wait for 2tb prices to drop
would it have it hurt to say what screws they were?
I can't afford to get the Xbox series one x. So I am going to do this upgrade tomorrow. Thank you so much for the very easy to follow tutorial.
Glad I could help
