Xbox One 4TB Hard Drive Released

4.5
The Xbox One, thankfully, allows for its internal on board storage to be augmented with external hard drives- I say thankfully because all games must be installed on it before they can be played, and games are massive in file size- when patches alone can be nearly 20GB, the total space taken up by a single game can often be 60, even 70GB.

With this new hard drive for the Xbox One, released by Seagate, lack of storage space will never be a problem for you again- not unless you flat out crazy in terms of the number of games that you buy. This hard drive has 4TB of space, which means that, given an average file size of 50GB per game, you can store 80 games on it. The official page for the hard drive advertises a capacity of 100 games, which is probably closer to the truth, honestly. In any case, it’s absurdly more than you will ever need.

That's awesome, I have a 1TB from my new xbox and a 1TB External and even that is filling up quick, glad they're making bigger things.

Sage With all the new games coming out this is not a surprise at the least!


Damn right, I've already filled up my 500 GB on couple of games, will definitely need to get this
oh yeah mine is already filled up! I had to delete like 5 full games to make more space for other games

This is a good move, the storage space issues with the Xbox 1 were one of the things keeping me from purchasing it, I was always afraid of having to uninstall games and lose data just to make room for a game I may end up hating and never playing again. Now once I pick up an Xbox 1, I'll grab this HDD too.

Just a branded HDD, waste of money. You may as well buy a regular seagate 2TB HDD for £60 instead of £75 for the Xbox 2TB HDD

EarthbornPosted:

I will for sure pick this up, just means re installing all my games and DLC. Kind of a bummer, but definitely worth it.

JxssePosted:

Definitely going to need a hard drive soon, running out of space with all the games I am buying.

Mercedes_Benz Good move, I still have the 500 GB version and everytime I wanted a new game, I had to deinstall other games first.


Same. I was just looking at 1TB HDD but now i'll just wait for this
