Both of my XBOX systems need new drives.
What is the largest total external drive size that each one can use?

On the XBOX forum, I was told that the 360 can address up to one 2TB drive and that the XBONE doesn't have a limit.

Anyone know for sure??

Thanks all!

I have a 5TB HDD set up with my Xbox One, but I don't know about anything bigger.  I don't see why not.
As for 360, 2TB was a cap for a long time.  IDK if theyve changed it, but about a year ago I tried my PC's 4TB HDD and it didnt work.

Sounds good, thanks.
I'll play "musical HDDs" then.
I'll get a 4 TB drive for XBONE,
move the 2 TB drive to the wiiu.
Use the wiiu 1TB drive on time capsule.

And everybody is happy!
