i bought a seagate 1tb usb hdd a few months ago but unfortunately that and the internal hdd is now full. will i be able to use 2 x external hdds at the same time??? if so would i be better buying the same make/model or would a 2tb work finr with a 1tb hdd

yes you can use two at the same time, i can't see make and model being a problem, as long as they're 3.0

thnx for the reply, decided just to buy the same hdd but the 2tb version. im wondering if i should just move all the games from the full 1tb hard drive to the 2tb hard drive untill thats full or connect both at the same time??? im hoping that i dont fill the new one up too quickly tho as im running out of usb posrt now

USB3, around 7mins at theoretical speed. I'd say an hour or so, maybe less.

it took me over an hour to empty the hard drive off the xbox one and that was only about 320gb

Just leave it running in background overnight?

Also depends on your HDD RPM, 5400vs7200.
