Need more internal storage on your Xbox One? Internal drive failure keeping the console from booting up? Or maybe you just want to install a SSD in there for fun? Regardless the reason, this guide will show you how to take a 2.5" SATA drive and set it up for your Xbox One, Xbox One S, or Xbox One X internally! This exact tutorial will be using the Xbox One X as a demonstration, however the original Xbox One and the Xbox One S have the same software steps as shown here. This will also only walk through setup and initialization like a brand new console, so retaining any data from an old drive will be up to you if you choose to adapt this tutorial to your situation.
