Hi, i am a pc gamer with an xbox for occasional use, i bought the cheapest xbox and it only has like 450gb, i know i can buy an external drive but as money is tight as of the moment i was wondering if there was any way to partition off part of my 2tb computer HDD as a usb drive for my xbox then i would plug the xbox into the pc.

Not really. (at least not easily)

Maybe you could do something with network storage?

If this was between two PCs, it would be as simple as a network share, but I'm not aware of any way you could make this work with an xbox

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Besides the drive part of the issue, would Xbox even be able to connect to PC via USB? In other words, would Xbox even see PC as connected device and visa-versa (probably not).
