Xbox One external plugging advice needed.

[kenzibit]

Hello everyone, need your advice. Do you recommend plugging an external in 24/7 even when not using or plug and unplug when needed in xbox one.

Thing is, I got an external and wish to use it for storing my 100% base games since I don't like uninstalling and also the possibility of getting a dlc for that game one day (See what happened to Ryse). With that said, I want to just push all those games on the external (leaving current played games on console), unplug and store in a drawer till I need a game on it.

Now it's this method advisable and good or I should just push the games all right, leave it plugged even though I won't be needing it or playing any game on it?

Thanks.

I have my USB powered external plugged in permanently, it's safe to leave it.

I keep a 3tb plugged in 24/7.
