How to Replace Xbox One Hard Drive
Replacing an Xbox One hard drive can be a bit tricky, but it's doable! First, you'll need a compatible replacement drive (usually a 2.5 inch SATA). You'll also want to back up any data you don't want to lose. Then, open up the case (you might need a Torx screwdriver set), swap out the old drive for the new one, and reassemble everything. You'll need to reinstall the Xbox OS using a USB drive and the Offline System Update files from Microsoft's website. Good luck!
