    Curious if anyone has experienced any issues with their external hard drive for the Xbox One since the newest dashboard update (not sure if it's related or just coincidence).

    So I have about 250 combined games and apps stored on the ex drive. Previously the console would recognize the drive almost immediately, allowing access to everything at start-up. Now every time I turn my console on, the Games and Apps folder on the console are empty and the Ready to install is populated by everything on the external drive. It then takes several minutes for each game and app to one-by-one show up in the Games and Apps sections, and even then I'll have a handful of games and apps leftover (5 to 10) that won't install. I've contacted support but they've been little to no help.

    I've tried a hard reset on the console, unplugging and reconnecting everything, you know the drill, but still no luck in correcting this. Interested if anyone else is experiencing the same issue.

    I've not had any problems with my external drive (2TB Samsung) - sorry :-(

    Edit: I use Instant On - dunno if that makes a difference.
