I didn't realise you could edit the titles now as you couldn't before lol, so I'd still like to know about both questions.
Looking on the shop there's a 4tb maxtor m3 for £110 or £70 for a 2tb version which if I sell my computer to get the money sooner would be ideal, however I chose my seagate 1tb for my Xbox over a similar priced maxtor months ago as I've had their old drives and were okay, but not a popular brand in my eyes, which questions whether that is a good unit & price for a big drive(never had more than a single 1t before) or just a keen price for sales?
Original question if nobody saw was about if it's possibly to get a drive like abover and partition part of it to cover the Xbox games? I don't know how Xbox works other than 3.0 gives option for game drive if you select it.
Basicially I'm thinking of ditching my pc in favour of a laptop due to work prospects changing so won't have time for pc/console gaming as much, but unless I get an external drive I will always need a computer for storage only setup and so..
With my current 2.5tb over 3 drives setup using nearly 2tb I am going to need at least a 3tb external, however I have a 1tb external for my Xbox one and my missus has a 500gb X1 like myself, but no extra storage and was thinking rather than buying 2 drives I could get a 4tb if not higher and partition 1.5-2tb for my Xbox and the rest for my computer/personal/back up stuff I have and will add to it then give her the 1tb, but I haven't a clue if this will work so I'm asking if anyone has tried this already and is working for them???
