Dude, you might as well just get on 3TB for now. By the time you need it, another one will probably be much cheaper.

Yeah, that is true. Of course, I could always use a 3TB drive for my laptop. The two drives I have now, a 500GB that is almost completely full and a 2TB drive that is I think over half full, since I have most if not all of my PC and Steam games installed on it.Originally Posted by JBHuskers
Either way, I'm gonna keep that USB hub thought in mind. Unfortunately, I can't test it as the hub I have right now is only a USB 2.0 hub. I'd have to buy a new USB 3.0 hub sometime down the road to test it (if no one else has tested it first by that point).
Best rated one on Amazon....

Nice. I'll have to look into that.

I have a 2.0 one of the same brand from Amazon for my laptop and it's good.

Also from Joystiq:
On external storage support, Microsoft says Xbox One owners can choose which of their drives, including the internal 500GB drive, is the default location for new game installs and so on. Microsoft also notes players can install games to an external drive, plug that drive to another Xbox One, and sign in or insert a disc to start playing there.

The idea that you can easily take it to a friends house is definitely killer. Assuming no slowdown from reading from the USB 3.0, that's how I would prefer the PS4 handle it.
From what I gather USB 3.0 is the same as a SATA drive in terms of speed.

I'll probably never use that feature, but that is definitely neat. Bring a bunch of games with you? Nope, just brought this little mini hard drive that has my entire catalog of games and need only sign in to access them all from any Xbox One. Awesome.
I'm probably going to get a 1TB drive to start off with. I really have a hard time seeing myself having that many games installed at once, especially with how quickly I go through some of them. If need be, I could always upgrade later and have a second drive, although that seems a bit redundant. I don't need to right NOW, so I'll just wait for a really good sale. If I get filled up, I'll just start buying games on my PS4.
For me it's like $80 for 1TB or $100 for 3TB at the time, so I went with 3.

Yea! Still have no clue why that was not done in the first place.Finally, we’ve made it possible for you to choose an account for automatic sign-in on your Xbox One – another much-requested feature from fans like you.
Coming soon, these features will be available to members previewing Xbox One system updates as they help us work through final improvements. This system update will become available to the full Xbox One community in June. We look forward to hearing what you think and keep the feedback coming.
Just saw this...
UPDATE: A Microsoft spokesperson has confirmed to VideoGamer.com that the upper limit for external storage support is 16TB.
There you go Smooth, buy two 8TB's

Bought Wolfenstein tonight but have no need for the Doom Beta Code.
First come first serve.
Spoiler: show
I'm definitely interested. Thanks!

Fantastic game. I'm probably 3/4 of the way through it and I've loved every second of it.
Just some clarification from earlier in regards to external drives. Saw this while I was checking out Major Nelson's site.
So in that case, 3TB will definitely be the minimum size drive I'll consider buying. 1 or 2TB might work for a lot of people, but if you buy a lot of games every year, you'll probably run out of room on a 1 or 2TB drive within 1-2 years. I've had my One since it released in November and I only have around 50-70GB of free space left from the 500GB internal drive that came with it.FAQ: Xbox One external storage will support up to two USB 3.0 drives. You can also name your drives #AngryToast pic.twitter.com/BfuP4k5sg4

Still early into it but liking it so far. Plays almost the opposite of the old games, outside it being a FPS. Only complaint is having to click to pick up ammo. I really hate that. Health and Shield packs I can understand but you do have to pick them up often (at least I do) and special items, I got no problem with. Ammo?
It also appears the patch, which has yet to be released is optional.

When is the external drive coming , in the next patch I assume?
