I think most people will be fine with a 3TB 2.5inch external HDD. Those can be found for less than $100
Total of 4TB is kinda decent for a normal libary
Can you move games back, and forth between the internal/external drive?
Yep. I have a 5tb one, works well.

I have 2 4TB WD My Passport connected to my Xbox One S. Should be sufficient for some time.
They have 3 advantages:
- small
- USB bus powered
- extremely silent

There, there...
that looks bigger than the X lol
Good. I'll be using my spare 2TB. Hope that's enough for a while.

2?
I need the usb ports.
I have kinect, external hdd, controller charging stand and a fan at the back of my low board to get the heat out of the shelf

I totally missed on the big part in this announcement:
That is the time I today have decided to change my pre-order to a regular Xbox One X.

I was misleading:
I have 2 drives but only 1 is connected because I have around 50% storage left. But I have the 2nd rear USB3.0 unused anyway. Kinect isn't used anymore.
I have a powered USB 3.0 hub that has my externals running through and that works really well. The Kinect has it's on USB 3 port just to make sure it actually works.

i was always unsure if that would work without any issues.
so maybe i have to try. the charging stand and fan does only need power anyway and no data, so it should be no problem
any cheap small one you can suggest me?

Was not sure if that works because of necessary drivers you can't install on the console! Can you post the model you use?
Xbox One X Scorpio Edition officially sold out!
Guess there'll be a fair few going back on sale when folks switch to the standard
I'll be sticking with my SE though - really love that gradient look!

Its probably not certain if you get one btw. Because MS netherlands didnt give the stores a list yet with how many they get.

Ah i see. Ah well, you know...honestly...if MM doesn't have the PS edition for me it's all good, not the end of the world. I'll stick with that preorder there and we'll see. Also, if Nedgame and GameMania do turn out to be offering trade-in programs for the normal edition and i still get 120 euros for my fat Xbox One.....i might just go for that instead.

There's two 3.5" WD Red 10TB drives in RAID 0/1 in there. It's 18cm*10cm*16cm (H*W*D).
Where I live the drives alone already cost as much as that thing does.
Bol.com is also still accepting pre-orders for the PS edition.Intertoys.nl is still accepting preorders for the PS edition. Just so the fellow Dutch folks know
That's strange, why wouldn't they want to share allocation with stores?

Also, Best Buy has an 8 terabyte external drive on their deal of the day today in the U.S. If anything me is looking to increase storage space.
Scalper prices just went through the roof.Xbox One X Scorpio Edition officially sold out!
Glad I got mine. Really like the pattern, and gradient.
Managed to get the "VG20OFF150" code applied retrospectively to my Xbox One X Scorpio pre-order with Amazon UK, so have £20 off it if I decide to keep it. Makes it £429. If you've pre-ordered with Amazon, it's worth trying your luck with someone on chat.
How did you manage that? Cancel and redo?

I can't believe I didn't even notice the gradient until you guys pointed it out.
Still on the fence on this until I see the regular version. Something about the monster energy green puts me off.

thanks so much for this. I wasn't able to apply it, but the Amaz(ing)on rep will issue me a $20 refund back to my card after it ships AND gave me a $20 gift card on the spot! I said WOW
