NBC Is there even a spot for another hdd? like in the slim it had an internal and you could put one in. I don't think a usb will do the trick anymore


The clue is in the title...EXTERNAL and considering it uses USB 3.0 it'll be fast enough.

gtapro151 haha with microsoft over priced drives only watch...and its necessary with 2-19 gb updates not including dlc lol


What do you think external storage support is? Because I'm not sure you remotely understand. Their not going to force the use of Microsoft certified drives, that's the whole point in the update, to use your own.
