Choosing an External Hard Drive for Xbox One

In this day and age, it is quite important that you purchase additional storage for your Xbox One. This is especially true if you plan to travel around and play on the go. So, which hard drive should you choose? Here are two recommendations for what we think is the best hard drive for Xbox One.

Toshiba HDTB420XK3AA Canvio Basics 2TB Portable External Hard Drive USB 3.0

First up, we would recommend the Toshiba HDTB420XK3AA Canvio Basics 2TB Portable External Hard Drive USB 3.0. Sure, it may look a bit bland and boring, but it is the perfect external hard drive for Xbox One. It can store and retrieve data lightening quick, thanks to the USB 3.0 technology.

This Canvio Basics hard drive lets you bring your gameplay on the go thanks to its sleek portability. It is able to offer high storage capacity and easy setup, with quick accessibility to your stored content for a cost-effective price.

With the 2TB of storage, it is possible to store up to fifty different gaming titles and their saved content. This means you have plenty of room for storing all your content! Even though the drive has USB 3.0 technology, it is still possible to use USB 2.0 if required, which is good to know.

Avolusion 1TB USB 3.0 Portable External XBOX One Hard Drive (XBOX One Pre-Formatted)

The second hard drive we would recommend is the Avolusion 1TB USB 3.0 Portable External XBOX One Hard Drive (XBOX One Pre-Formatted).

To ensure it is ready to use straight away, the Avolusion drive comes pre-formatted for XBOX Games Consoles. Comments from past buyers and users seem to suggest that it truly is plug and play, and is light weight making it easy to carry around.
