Hey everybody! I'm still working on the project that would allow to install M.2 SSD (NGFF or NVMe) into Xbox One X. I wish I had more time to do that, but anyway I'm not gonna give up on that project and I'll finish that video real soon, hopefully.
LIkely not much of chance for a NVMe drive will work on a console based around a sata3 controller, but then again I have not checked the controller chips in details to see if there are an NVMe PCI controller present, but your right - it looks to be very few discrete off the shelf components that are missing in that area,. (kudos for digging into it..!!)
A question how many TB does Xbox One X support at once.?
Is it 26TB or is it 18TB?
I know Xbox One X is a pure pleasure to use with external SSD drives and the OS will accept at least 4 drives a once.. 3 external + 1internal.
but to my understanding does each of the external have a limit at 8TB (sadly don't have any 8TB SSD to validate) and the internal at 2TB max, so in theory it should equal 26TB of possible SSD the One X would be able to handle at once..?.
Are you trolling where's the video sir?
Did you ever get it to work?
@@unknownpopcorn6499 The last status was, that he complete everything, every hardware, but it doesn‘t work, and he say maybe he and his team must control the way of the platines again or they must create a software for it. How it‘s going now, I don’t know. He can tell us. (They can maybe the analize the software from Series X, maybe it can help.)
Did you ever got this to work. Awesome video by the way.
I've just witnessed greatness! To give such information under 4 minutes it requires some real talent. Bro, please make the video about installing the M.2 port even if it was unsuccessful. Maybe someone could also share some ideas about it and we all could make that upgrade possible. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for the comment!
Cant wait for video about instaling m.2 NVMe ssd... I am belive it can worked
@@ElectronicsComputers yes sir please do that video on adding that M.2 slot to the unpopulated area on the board. I need that video in my life explaining how to do it, if it works or doesn’t work, and possible reasons why it may not work. If it doesn’t work and enough people request Microsoft to add support for that slot to be utilized we may see an system update that allows it to work.
Sir, I wanted to thank you and who ever helps you in the making of these videos. They are very helpful for the right people. As for the M.2 ssd populated onto the Xbox One X motherboard, I for one am excited about this venture. Either way it turns out. Keep up the hard work. Stay motivated. Peace
Thank you for the comment!
Hi just wondered if you had any luck with the M.2. have had ago myself but not recognised on the system yet!
Have installed all components I could see comparing with XDK photo's. And now have 3.3v to M.2 slot. It now gets warm also!
Omg, finally!! This is what I was hoping to find, that NVMe port its used on DevKits so considering that the software its pretty similar, in theory can work 🤔🤔🤔
Correct, Microsoft didn't give the consumers that option for some reason.
@@ShadowLancer128 Cost I'm sure.
Your hard drive upgrade video was helpful, thanks replaced mine about a week ago with a 1TB SSD. An M.2 now that would be interesting upgrade if possible.....
I'm glad it helped!
You earned another subscriber my friend.
I'm happy to help and thank you for your support!
Thank you. I already have upgrade to sata ssd. I can't wait to see nvme too. I already have xbox series but want to playing around with this little machine. I hope you well sir
I'm happy to help! I'm working on NVMe project.
Anyone have any idea where I can get replacement screws for the internals and what to look for? I accidentally wore down some of the screws with an old dodgy torx driver I have :(
thanx sir for ur work its so helpful
Im so excited about that nvme slot can u make a video about it so soon im waiting it for a bit of time
Sorry if had some writing mistakes im not good in English
Yes, soon
@Electronics&Computers Did you ever manage to reverse engineer the NVME possibility? I understand it involves soldering and finding the right components.. but curious if it worked
The video about success or failure will be released soon.
So is there an option or not? Have you tested it out?
thanks for the video
You're welcome
@@ElectronicsComputers Did you ever manage to reverse engineer the NVME possibility?
I was told that the capacitors labeled with Cxxx and some resistors (Rxxx) are missing connecting the m.2 to the motherboard.
Sure, and also 3.3V voltage regulator for the SSD.
After months of waiting in vain for the Series X, I chanced upon your videos and just replaced my XB1X HDD with a SATA SSD - been working great so far.
And now I’m already salivating at the prospect of NVME! Can’t wait for your next video, hope that experiment goes well!
I really think that could be a game changer for people who are still waiting to get their hands on an Xbox Series X and might want to DIY an Xbox one X upgrade. Hope the NVME works, and please post performance comparisons to the SATA SSD.
Would it be faster than the m2 used via the sata adapter that you used in your previous video?
Via SATA adapter we can only use SATA-based NGFF M.2 SSDs while unpopulated port allows you to connect NVMe (PCIe) SSDs. The difference in performance between those M.2 SSDs is very noticeable, at least on PC.
What type of network card is that in the Xbox One X? I’m curious if upgrading that network card could give me more internet speed as we have a gigabit package through our isp. If you can provide more info on this I’d appreciate it. I’d love to get this thing working at gigabit speeds through my wired setup. All of the equipment used as well as the cabling all support gigabit speed and my Xbox One X draws up to 630 ish mbps.
Unfortunately, wireless cards are not upgradable, because Xbox consoles use non standard cards which were made specifically for their equipment.
well done great video
Thank you very much!
Did you ever add the M2 SSD port & circuit parts and try it on the current firmwares to see if it had support yet?
Check one of my recent community post about that video. The number one part of the video is done and I'll post it soon.
Hey, I have a dell inspiron 3000 with 4gb of ram, I wanna add more 4gb to it but I am confused which ram stick to purchase can you please suggest me a good but affordable ram stick I mean between the range of 15 to 20 dollars
Samsung 4GB, DDR3 PC3L-12800: amzn.to/3qV264Y
or Crucial 4GB, DDR3 PC3L-12800: amzn.to/2MvpYxs
will be the best option for you.
I hope the M.2 is possible!!!! That would be a game changer. Great work on the video 😃
If we could work it out, then maybe there's no sense of buying Xbox Series X.
@@ElectronicsComputers Will you try to solder an m.2 slot on xbox one x?
@@carmeloburgio7423 Sure! I'm working on it. And it's not just M.2 slot, there's a whole bunch of missing components.
I can’t wait for progress on this front
Have you made any more progress on this?
How big of a hard drive can you upgrade to? I'm thinking of doing and wonder if you can beyond like 4TB if that's possible.
Xbox officially supports 500Gb, 1TB and 2TB SSDs/HDDs. .
Under the heat sink are those ram chips if they are is there a way I can upgrade them
It's not gonna work. 12gb of RAM is more than enough for this console. All games come maximum optimized for the console and even if you could upgrade the RAM chips you wouldn't see any difference in performance. The best upgrade you can do is upgrade HDD to an SSD. I have a video on that too.
Hi :) Okay so I know this is now close to a year after you posted this, but did you ever find out anything about adding a NVMe port to the motherboard? I'm wondering as I have a question about the Series X. The prototype (leaked pictures) had a SPDIF port on the back while that port was removed for the retail version. But the motherboard has pinouts/pads for a SPDIF connector, and as you ponder here, unless it needs more parts than just the connector, would it work?
Image detailing the option (ignore the LED mod thing, that was just what got me to the SPDIF from the Prototype XSX):

Still working on that project.
@@ElectronicsComputers If you and your team make that happen, you are the heroes on the Xbox world.
You can share with us how it‘s going, everbody want to know the status :) we are so excited.
@@yorumustasi Pressure him and let him know that we want this on his latest videos!
Did you ever find out if you can fit an m.2 ssd to the xbox one x? I have searched far and wide and it seems no one wants to risk it or just simply doesnt know about it. There has been conversations about it but obviously no attempts recorded. Would you be willing to try it out? I think if you named it m.2 connector in xbox one x, or something close to that, your views would sky rocket to an already good channel.
Thanks, chris.
Did you figure out if it works or not yet? 👀 very excited about the outcome.. especially if it works 😃
Don't comment on here, comment on his newest video so he actually sees it.
Any updates on this?
Hello,, what's the name of this adapter for m2 slots ?? 3:19 ...working xbox with m2 slots ???
I have a video on how to upgrade Xbox to NGFF M.2 SSD. you can go watch that video and the link for that adapter is in the video description.
@@ElectronicsComputers yes i but but nwme m2 press sata adapter is faster ten classic ssd disk ?
This is probably not going to happen but have you tried taking apart one of those m.2 adapter cards to use there M.2 ports
I have a video with attempt to upgrade One X to m.2 slot.
heyo did you try an nvme ssd with sata adapter? In my country the samsung 980 is cheaper then sata ssds
There's no adapters that convert SATA interface to NVMe.
@@ElectronicsComputers yea I know that now too. I researched hours about that... Thank you for your comment ^^
hello ik its weird but how do you make your headset mic work on a dell computer not laptop cause im suffering i cant find how to make it work my mic thats on the computer takes over the mic and i need it fast because i stream
If you need to switch between the built-in and headset mics then go to the Control panel-> Sound. In appeared windows click on the record tab and then right-click on your headset and select "Set as default communication device". If you want you can also disable your built-in mic here. Right-click on it and select disable.
thanks i got it working
Please make a part 2, I've been waiting on this conspiracy theory 🙏🏽
I'm working on it.
Have you been able to successfully upgrade to an internal NVMe SSD? If so, when will you upload the new video?
Check my recent community post.
Great video!
Just for curiosity, Have you tested that unpopulated m.2 SSD slot yet?
Do you still have a plan to make a video about it?
I would like to know the m.2 slot is working or not( As a data m.2 or NVME m.2).
*Finger crossed
I expect to finish that project by April, guys. I can't do it any faster but I'll do my best to make it work.
@@ElectronicsComputers Hi, Hope you doing very well. I was wondering if you have tried this m.2 slot thing on xbox one x
@@mamtili The video will be published soon.
Any update on the M.2 slot?
Yop still waiting.
Hey, can I replace the xbox one x motherboard into my xbox one s?
No, they are different.
i wish the developer mode app had options for the system because i highly doubt the empty slot would work. Someone would already said something.
I'm trying to reverse engineer schematics and figure out the specs of missing components. We'll see soon if it's gonna work. If the firmware supports that port then it should definitely work.
@@ElectronicsComputers how You think? How many time You need to heck it?
And?! How it works? Do you working on it? 😁
how to go standard to administrator please help me
Sorry, I didn't get your question.
Any update on the m.2 slot.
I'm waiting for some components to arrive.
So, what happened to that m2 port?
Watch my community posts.
Update on the SSD upgrade?
Read my recent community post.
Part 2?
Any updates on the process? Or you’re given up?
Check my community post. I made an update there several month ago.
@@ElectronicsComputers got it, thanks! Did you find a proper schematic for this console? I’ve found one on the web, so most likely you own it too, but for the case you don’t, I can send it to you, just let me know, of course if you’re still interested in this project.
It works? Merry Xmas!!
Merry Christmas! I'm happy to help!
When exit the next video of upgrade of xbox one x
Have found a solution for NVME slot yet ?
To make it work we need to find out how they planned to implement a 3.3V power rail and data line. I'm trying to reverse engineer schematics. And thanks to Xbox series X which has similar components we have chance to make it real.
@@ElectronicsComputers Are you planing in investigate this furthuer and share in a video? I will like very much to see some advancements in this particular mod. This week i've installed an SSD and saw some improvements in Xbox One X OS performance and offcourse games loading times, but i think the CPU is botlenecking the speed of ssd.
@@carlossaraiva8127 The CPU is fast enough to handle those speeds. The video will be somewhere in the spring.
@@ElectronicsComputers Curious if this ever worked out? I dug through comments and about a month ago you mentioned a possible video soon? Still cant get my hands on a Series X for my wife (I got lucky and snagged one at release) and I dont see the point in a Series S as a temporary solution, when the One X she has is native 4k. The nly thing holding it back is the standard drive/SSD (non nmve) options.
@@ElectronicsComputers any news on nvme?
I guess installing ssd didn't work?
Ehy but the sequel when exit ?
I take it you were not able to get the internal m.2 support to work.
That video is on the way. I'm not a full time youtuber here. I've got a lot of thing to do. And I barely survived my recent business trip. So guys, some patience please.
@@ElectronicsComputers thank you been patiently waiting
I'm guessing you have not been successful or followed up on the M.2 port ?
I've been commenting, no response, maybe after so many attempts and breaking his head he failed to make it work and gave up
On the component level the project was finished and I filmed the process. Unfortunately, the SSD didn't show up and we started to work on the firmware. At this point I'm not sure if the problem was in the firmware or I simply missed some data lines on the PCB. I'll finish that video real soon and share all my progress. I hope we'll make it work.
@@ElectronicsComputers I really appreciate you taking the time to respond! I look forward to the video!
@@ElectronicsComputers Thanks for the update!!
@@ElectronicsComputers You have a great Channel :) What is the currently status?
I'm here 2 yrs later wishing you experimented on the one x
I'll post upgrade to M.2 video in a couple of weeks.
@@ElectronicsComputers sweet. Would be waiting
Dude did all that disassembling and didn't even show if it worked. ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL those damn screws!! I'll just get a Series X, thank you.
I don't see why it wouldn't work.
@@ElectronicsComputers It might be a good idea but how would you affix the slot to the board?
I'll really hope that you succeed😎
