Need more internal storage on your Xbox One X?
Console Wizard provides Xbox One X 2TB Hard Drive Upgrade from £154.99. We assess the reported fault before confirming the appropriate work. Where a dropdown offers different options, your selection determines the booked scope and final price.
Symptoms and suitability
• Existing internal drive is full
• More space wanted for installed games
• 2TB internal HDD installation
This page is for the Microsoft Xbox One X. Xbox One, Xbox One S and Xbox Series models have separate repair services.
Possible causes and what the symptoms mean
A storage upgrade is intended to provide more internal space for games and applications. It does not change the console graphics hardware, and increasing the capacity of a conventional HDD should not be treated as an SSD performance upgrade.
A working console that is running out of space is different from one with a failed drive. If there are boot errors, freezing or failed updates, tell us before booking so the fault can be distinguished from a straightforward capacity upgrade.
Diagnosis before the work
We establish the console model and selected drive capacity, and discuss the condition of the existing storage. The old drive must be readable for any accessible data transfer; a failed drive may make that impossible.
Back up or synchronise accessible saves before sending a working console. Confirm what needs retaining before work starts, because replacement storage and system setup do not guarantee recovery of every local file.
Repair method and work carried out
We replace the existing internal drive with a 2TB hard disk to provide more storage for installed games. This is a conventional HDD upgrade; choose the separate SSD service if you want solid-state storage. Installed games may need downloading again. Cloud saves depend on successful synchronisation with your Xbox account, so connect a working console to Xbox services and allow saves to sync before sending it.
Repair checks and service limits
The selected larger internal hard drive is installed and prepared with the system software required for this console. The completed installation is checked for normal startup and recognition of the replacement storage.
The advertised capacity is the drive specification; system storage reduces the space available for games. Where there is a capacity selector, the final total depends on that selection. Separate SSD services offer a different storage technology.
What is included?
• Installation of a larger 2TB hard drive
• Xbox system setup on the replacement drive
• Boot and storage checks
Price and diagnostic fee
The displayed price is £154.99. The fault is assessed before work; any additional repair is discussed first. A £20 diagnostic fee is deducted from the actual repair fee if the repair proceeds. It is retained if the repair is unsuccessful, not possible or declined. Any additional work is discussed before proceeding. Postage is separate.
Data and preparation
Describe the symptoms and any previous repair or liquid exposure. Remove game discs and detachable accessories unless relevant to the fault. Back up or synchronise important saves before sending a working console. Data recovery is not guaranteed; system reinstallation or drive replacement can erase local data, and a failed drive may prevent recovery.
Previous repairs and damage
Let us know about previous drive swaps, software recovery or damage to the drive connection. Existing boot faults or unreadable storage can change the work required and are discussed before additional chargeable repairs.
Warranty and aftercare
Our standard three-month repair warranty covers the repaired original fault from the date of repair. It does not cover unrelated faults or new physical damage. If the original repaired fault returns, contact us. Free warranty return shipping applies when reported within seven days of receiving the item back; after that, a reduced return rate applies.

Frequently asked questions
Will all my saves automatically be recoverable?
No. Only saves successfully synchronised to your account can be restored from the cloud. Unsynchronised local data and failed drives may not be recoverable.
Does more storage mean better graphics?
No. The upgrade provides capacity for installations. It does not replace the processor or graphics hardware.
Can I book this if the console already will not start?
Describe the boot fault first. A faulty drive or another hardware problem needs assessment rather than assuming a capacity upgrade is sufficient.
Will everything transfer from my old drive?
Transfer depends on accessible data and the old drive remaining readable. Failed or corrupted storage can prevent recovery.
Is this a solid-state upgrade?
This service installs a conventional hard drive. Use the separate SSD service if you want solid-state storage.
What warranty covers the completed repair?
A successful repair includes three months covering the repaired original fault from the repair date. Unrelated faults and new physical damage are excluded.
