Thank you brother! I’ve been searching for a quick and easy solution
Thank you for explaining the whole transfer concept I didn't it all know about that and I thought I had somehow just gotten a bad storage device that could only play the previous generation games
Super helpful video, thanks for the explanation
You can get an external crucial 2TB external ssd for 120-130. The Xbox USB ports limit the download speeds from 400-500 but the drive is capable of 1000 download on a laptop or anything with usb type c
Glad i found your channel bro ...keep going!
I have the seagate expansion card and two SSD drives on my series S. I play so many optimized games I am considering getting another seagate, especially for a future series X. I’m a professional photographer so I look at it like lenses. My camera is my series S (the “inexpensive” part) and the storage is like lenses (goodbye Wallet). Maybe I should just stick to playing my Nintendo switch, where the games cost $60 for a postage stamp. Gaming is expensive as hell. Worth it.
That is an interesting and great way to look at it
Good for you N'wah!, good for you
I NEED extra storage for the X/S optimized games for my Series X. 1 TB storage isn't nearly enough by itself. I HAVE a 3TB HDD from WD but I can't play basically ANY new game that comes out for Series X on it. So is the Seagate expansion card my ONLY option if I want more storage for Series X enhanced games?
That 2tb expansion card ss so worth it for me.
I got the 1TB proprietary storage for the Series X, works great. On the Series S (my travel console) I use an external SSD, trouble of transferring back and forward is really minimal… super easy. Barely an inconvenience.
Can you play optimized games from an external SSD? I wanna get something I can play optimized games from but don’t really want the memory card
@@chriskunkle4127 only the expansion card allows to run optimized games :(
Ooh that's tight
@@chriskunkle4127 just keep an eye out for an Seagate Expansion Card on marketplace/offerup for a decent price then offer even less. I thank God that I found someone that was hard up for cash and had a 2tb Seagate Expansion Card IOB listed for $180 and he eventually said he would take $100. Thought it was too good to be true but when we met up I took it out of the 2tb box and was happy to see the card had the “2tb” on the end! Ended up paying a total of $115 to get him to drive 35 minutes. lol Ive bought 3 of the 1tb Expansions cards for less than $100 in box, sealed on marketplace. And one of them thats I got for $75, I took to best buy and returned it for a $238 gift card to get the 2tb WD Black SN850 for my PS5 expansion port. Both were $220 before tax at the time, so technically I got the 2tb NMvD for $75 lol. Its all about not being in a rush to buy something!
good info, thanks
You helped me so much man! thanks!
Glad I could help!
But what about an old 360 game that gets an FPS or resolution boost on the series X? Will those lose their upgrades if you play them from external drive? Or is it all good
I cant believe you only have 30k ish subscribers 🤯 you deserve way more brother !! Keep on ✊🏼🔥
One day my friend.
Okay I know im late to this video but heres my take.... I bought the Series S first and a brand new gaming monitor thatll do 4k 60 or 1440p 120 with hdr the whole shabang. If you are still on 1080p you wont notice a difference between the Xbox One or Series X/S optimized games and you can use any storage you want in that case
M.2 in a enclosure is what I rock for X|S storage, for Xbox one and under I use a 5TB WD black
I rock a 500GB M.2 NVMe in an enclosure and a 500GB 2.5 inch SATA SSD in an enclosure too to total 1TB extra which is fine for me
Very helpful
Would it help a game play better if stored on an external SSD on my SX
Thank you! Well explained.
Glad I could help
I use a 2tb Samsung 870 QVO SSD with a adapter. If you use a internal SSD or hard drive with a $13 adapter, you can save some money. You can play all your backwards compatible games and some Series optimized games on it. IF you need to transfer a game from or to the internal storage it is extremely fast since it is ssd to ssd. 100 gb game takes just a couple of minutes.
Which adapter do you use
@@Rycoda I use a Samsung Evo 870 in an Orico 2.5 inch enclosure I got from Amazon
Wait, which is the 5TB card that you said you have? Can you give the name plz I’m down to buy it rn 😭
Thanks man, I've been struggling choose one👍.
Glad I could help
How many games it hold 2tb Xbox series x especially games range 100gb or more please.
Literally my exact situation. Debating over it now.
I've been wanting a PS5 since launch but refuse to over pay. I put in a joke bid on a series S on StockX for $200 and someone accepted it so I'll be going back to Xbox for awhile. Going to try my best to only play a few games at a time and also use my PS4 for some games so hopefully I can skip storage expansion on my S. I know it might be difficult but my goal is to keep it to only 3-4 games on the hard drive at a time and that's it.
I own both a PS5 and a Series S. You're gonna LOVE that Series S dude especially since you got it for $200 that's borderline robbery
@@jigglynorris2559 yeah man I'm pretty excited about it. Such a steal.
You might end up considering on just upgrading to a Series X altogether in all honesty. The only thing really separating X/S from the PS5 is the Haptic Feedback and console exclusives IMO.
@@jigglynorris2559 yeah I won't get an X. I love PS exclusives so I'll definitely still be getting a PS5 eventually but I'm pumped to get this little Xbox. Seems decent enough.
The Series S s dope. I honestly believe it is way better than a lot of people think. The PS5 is just nice for us legacy Playstation gamers
i see your playing on computer, i bought my seagate storage drive 3 TB, but here lately eevn my xbox xs, is not even letting me find the external storage.
Is it formatted for the series xs
I know I am a year late and rarely comment , due to recent news on xbox where at the start of 2024 any clips older than 90 days expires (or auto delete) , Which expansion card is the best to store my 400+ clips and the next upcoming games like tekken 8?
I am also looking to download forza motorsport 8 , mortal kombat 12 , and the crew motorfest but I only have less than 1 GB (have 80 games installed)
Tekken 8 is ps only. I would go with wd cards.
I can play s/x games on my hdd its a seagate 2t external kinda strange
Can I use both an expansion card and external drive on the Xbox Series X?
oh yes 😁 optimized games on expansion card or internal storage, the rest on your external drive
I got 8tb with led green light both hola hard dives 2tb and 5tb
All comes down to the speed you want/hiw important speed is to you...also if you wait a year or 2 the ssds will come down
Yea that is true. It's how much they have already
Iam still waiting for 2 years 😂
I got a 5tb from WD and it’s amazing
Be honest do you ever use that Nintendo that’s sitting there?
I'll go with an external ssd for now, I already have my Xbox one games on 2 hhds
Had a 1TB seagate and my series x died turned on 15 seconds and turned off didn’t connect to the tv and I had it for the Xbox one and never died so I wouldn’t know if it drained too much power or maybe I just got a bad Xbox
Did Microsoft get it replaced for you?
I just picked up the 4TB Western Digital Elements harddrive with my Series S. Couldn't justify $200+ for a memory card. At that point your better off getting the X honestly.
DANG what a setup
I have a expansion 1tb card and a 4tb hdd for series X
if there will be more memory cards in lesser price it will be the best. or if they let you be "letdown" by load speeds from an external hdd/ ssd. that will be a killer move from microsoft. got the series s because ps5 is WAY too expensive and the series x won't work best for me, besides the fact I find the diffrence very minimal in graphics etc.
Went ahead and just got the series X mainly for the extra memory. Having 800gb is a huge quality of life positive and i get a more powerful and a future proof system.
Damn if you woulda just waited a month you coulda got the carbon black series s with 1tb. Just bought it.
@@sethq3676 I didnt want to wait cause I'm a big madden player. I'm glad I got the series X though its a awesome console.

I downloaded everything from my Xbox One to my external hard drive and when I hooked up to my series X my games do not show
I'm not sure man
Well guess I just have to start over with everything on series x lol, thanks anyways man great video.
For the love of god ive been looking for almost 2 hours now!! How many external hard drives can I plug into a series x!?????????
Like 1 or 2 in the front and like 1 or 2 or 3 in the back?? Thats all I want to know! Like no videos or pages will tell me! Like dang ima have to buy the thing and see for myself I guess..
3 I believe. There should be a USB port in the back, 1 in the front & then the SSD card slot in the back
The comments were more helpful then the video itself
Saludos from Tijuana, Mexico 🇲🇽
hola amigo
The card ssd actually only has 920 gigs. It takes 80 to format.
I believe it's because computers uses gibibytes instead of gigabytes which is calculated a little differently, resulting in the different number of actual storage available
Quick the WD BLACK 50 and the Xbox 2TB expansion card both best now you don’t gotta watch cheers
Huh?
I play a lot of older games and my series s comes 2nd to my ps5. So i bough a 2tb W D storage for it. Wont play 90% of S/X optimised games it suits me fine and was way cheaper.
I have a 4tb memory upgrade for my ps5 too so i just wanted a w d one for my series s
I am about to install a 2tb in mine. My PS5 has quickly become more and more relevant
I bought a sea gate drive
Nice internel storage but anyway too expensive at rhe moment.
It is.
Ye
Adhd if I've ever seen it
Bro just waffling
Contribute better
Just bought a Seagate 4tb ext Harddrive for $100
I'm wanting to do the same thing (I have a series s) and I know that with that you're only supposed to have the games that are for last gen on the external storage and the current gen (series s and x exclusives) on you internal storage but would you really say it's worth it even with the size of the current gen games?
@@Itz_brandon yes 100% moving games over is incredibly quick and fees up a ton of storage
So no games can be played on a external ssd drive on a series x? Sx games are the ones I'm asking about.
I have a 2tb seagate hdd & stored x/s games on it & they played from it just fine. May not be as fast as the game being stored in the internal or an external ssd; but it works for me.
@@Vv20vV these are sx games that haven't been optimized or updated from a one version?
I love that I’m early
I do too
If have basic knowledge of Storage drives this video aint for you 😂
After redfall xbox sucks.
Love how you’re explaining it to like 6 year olds. Well, that’s pretty much the whole console gaming community.
