Q: QuestionHello, I'm looking for a external hard drive for my xbox s, in which I can play the games stored on the hard drive on my xbox, without needing to install it on my external storage. Any recommendations? Thank you.

Asked 11 months ago by Glen.

• A:Answer Glen: For playing games directly from an external drive on your Xbox Series S, you'll need a drive that supports the necessary speed and compatibility. Unfortunately, games optimized for Xbox Series X|S cannot be played directly from a standard external HDD or SSD due to speed limitations. These games need to be stored on the internal SSD or the official Seagate Storage Expansion Card. However, you can store and play Xbox One, Xbox 360, and original Xbox games directly from an external drive. For this purpose, the Samsung T7 Portable SSD is a great option. It offers fast read/write speeds and is compatible with Xbox console. - Samsung Memory
