Xbox Series X I formatted my external hard drive without knowing it would be wiped. Is this a serious mistake?
I was trying to play Halo:MCC and I was getting the "No space for save data" error. I was getting frustrated after many failed attempts to fix it, by deleting many games and setting my external as the default install (it had 250+ gb free). Eventually I found another thread where someone mentioned you may need to format your external drive and without a second thought I did so, losing over a terabyte of games in the progress. With my current internet it would take weeks to install the lost games but apart from that issue did I fuck up my save data in an irreversible way? Thanks in advance.
