Xbox One unlikely to support external storage at launch

Xbox Live director of programming Larry 'Major Nelson' Hyrb said on his latest podcast: "The Xbox One will ship with a 500GB hard drive, all of them have that. The future plan is definitely to support external storage, much like we do on the Xbox 360. My understanding is that feature will not be there at launch because the team's working on some other things, but it's definitely on the list, I don't know when it'll come in though."

Microsoft said last month that Xbox One's launch had been pushed backto 2014 in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Norway, Russia, Sweden and Switzerland. Penello said the delay was due to Kinect voice-control localisation rather than supply issues.
Xbox One will launch in 13 markets this November. The Xbox One pricehas been set at £430 / €500 / $500.
GAME is once again taking pre-orders for Xbox One Day One Edition consoles, having previously halted them.
Xbox One Day One Edition consoles come with a commemorative controller, a code to unlock an exclusive Achievement, and a free digital copy of FIFA 14.
