Part 1. Comparison among XBOX ONE, XBOX ONE S and XBOX ONE X

XBOX ONE, XBOX ONE S and XBOX ONE X are video game consoles introduced by Microsoft. Each one can get users enjoy all games on the platform and all accessories. However, differences exist in hardware configurations and functions of each XBOX ONE edition.

From the above table, we can see that the first console XBOX ONE only supports video game playing while XBOX ONE S and XBOX ONE X support 4K Blu-ray and 4K records. XBOX ONE X even processes quicker than the former two editions, over about 40% in speed. Certainly, users can get a better gaming experience.

However, the disk shipped in XBOX ONE X is merely a Seagate 2.5-inch hard disk (model ST1000LM035), with absolutely 5400rpm. Even the 140MB/s peak transfer rate listed in the disk’s data sheet is still bottlenecking the gamer that are accessed frequently. If you plan to uplift the accessing speed, adding an SSD to your XBOX ONE is a good choice.

Game Nexus researchers have ever played XBOX ONE games with the internal HDD and with the external SSD. The test shows the following data:

XBOX ONE x SSD vs HDD results:

Games	Accessing time of HDD	Accessing time of SSD
Assassin’s Creed Origins	35.1 seconds	23.8 seconds
Denisty 2	24.1 seconds	17.7 seconds
Final Fantasy XV	67.5 seconds	23.3 seconds
Monster Hunter	25.6 seconds	16.9 seconds

It is easy to find that the accessing time has been shortened when the XBOX is connected to the external SSD. Especially, Final Fantasy XV clearly has the most to gain from an SSD, with the accessing time reduction of 65%. These results say the necessity of upgrading XBOX ONE with SSD.

We recommend you upgrade your XBOX ONE with an external SSD because Microsoft has decided that upgrading the internal hard disk on your XBOX ONE will ultimately void your warranty. Meanwhile, connecting SSD as the external SSD is very simple. You can save all games in the external SSD to get a better game accessing performance in XBOX ONE.

1. Open the disk enclosure.

2. Insert 2.5-inch SSD.

3. Close the disk enclosure.

4. Connect the USB 3.0 cable to USB port of disk enclosure.

The next step is to connect this disk enclosure to XBOX ONE. Use the cable attached with the disk enclosure to plug in the XBOX ONE console. The console will automatically check the SSD. Then, follow the prompts to format the disk.

Note: all data on the external SSD will be erased.

1. Once the cable is plugged in, you will be greeted by the pop-up screen.

2. Select [Format Storage Device].

3. Rename the SSD.

4. Your Xbox One will ask you whether you’d like to [Install new things here] or [Keep current location]. We’d advise that you install new things onto the external drive.

5. Click the option [Format storage device] to begin formatting.

Now, you can transfer the games to the SSD. Since SSD can shorten the accessing time, you can put those commonly-used games and applications into the SSD.

The first step is going to plugging your drive into the PC, we’ve popped a quick video at the bottom of this blog from GGPC Instagram showing where the cables usually are for this 🙂

Once you’ve plugged your new SSD or HDD you’ll need to activate the drive and assign it a name or letter.

The good news is, it’s super easy to do!

With the new storage now installed, turn the PC on and let it boot into windows as normal. The new drive won’t be usable until we activate it.

This will make the ‘create and format hard disk partitions’ tool pop up.

The default number that appears here automatically is the max storage available (yep, 500GB becomes 476B when formatted..) so just go with what pops up and click next.

The same process can be used for all types of storage, HDD and regular SSD too.
