The last Inside Xbox left us a new detail about Xbox Series X: you can use your external Xbox One hard drive without extra facilities.
The Xbox ecosystem takes a new step for the future. On the occasion of the last Inside Xbox, Jason Ronald, director of program management of the new console, assured that we can use our external hard drive full of Xbox One games without any extra installation.
As simple as plug and play. This has several peculiarities for the practical use of Xbox Series X. In this way we can store all backward compatible games in this type of space, which frees up the terabyte of internal SSD storage for exclusive use in new generation games.
You can continue storing games designed for Xbox Series X on a traditional external hard drive, but when playing you must transfer it to internal storage or the expanded SSD, if you have a memory. The reading speed that new projects will require make their use exclusive in these spaces.
