Support for external hard drives over 16TB is coming soon to Xbox
The feature is currently rolling out to Xbox Insider members
It’s expected to become widely available in the coming weeks
Support for larger external hard drives is coming to Xbox, with the feature currently available as part of the latest Xbox Update Preview for Xbox Insider members.
As detailed in the Xbox Update Preview Release Notes, the company will soon be enabling support for external storage devices over the previous 16TB limit. Such drives will be formatted with multiple partitions, causing them to appear as multiple devices in the console’s storage device menu. If you’re already using a drive that’s above 16TB, just bear in mind that it will need to be reformatted in order to take advantage of the update.
