So whos got what and what do people recommend?
The xbox one has very small hard drives considering you have to install every single game before playing, so going to need a lot more storage space quickly, 1TB at least and last for years

I have a Western Digital 1TB which is portable and does the job well. Was £49 iirc

Samsung M3 Slimline 1 or 2tb. I've had both and they have both been very good.

Also had a 2tb Western Digital Elements but if the cable was moved slightly it would disconnect

Why not just fit a bigger hard drive?

If you buy an external one, make sure its USB 3.

The Western Digitals are pretty good value for money.

Same one I have but black. Password protected is a good feature.

No case with it though, the U.S. had a case in the box. Not for UK tho

Seems like too much of a ball ache, also don't want to lose any game data, just be easier to add another hard drive, anyone have any experience with SSD hard drives? Rather more expensive I know but they are looking rather more reliable, had an external hard drive that lasted ages then out of nowhere just stopped working and couldn't get anything off of it since so looking for something abit more reliable
