The XBox consoles handle this differently. So TL DR I think it is possible that as soon as you format a drive for use on an Xbox, that it reserves a chunk of it for stuff like install buffer and maybe other needed files this is why you often see comparisons of the "requirements" on the store or the back of the box where on xbox it will say 50GB required and on PS4 it will say 90GB required, even tho it's the same game and uses almost the same amount of space once installed they decompress in small chunks and immediately move the files over to the install folder. The PS4 and PS5 are way more extreme in that regard, they straight up require you to often have u to 100% of the install size of a game of free space in addition to the space the game already needs, because the PS4 first nearly completely decompresses the files before it moves them to the install folder, and will take up space that is marked as free while doing so.Ī 60GB game would then need 90GB or even more of free space just to install. ![]() that decompression needs a buffer on your drive where it temporarily places the files until they get copied over to the install folder of the game. Games you download get decompressed while downloading/installing. ![]() Do you use that 30GB SSD as a formatted XBox storage device? if yes then I would assume the Xbox needs a buffer on said SSD in order to install games on it.
