There is no way to solve this from the Xbox One only.

Connect it to a mac or pc and run. It again shows up as 128gb.

On the drive there is an app called Samsung Portable SSD. Run it.

Select any name (name will be erased later), and click no on encryption.

Remove drive from computer and connect to Xbox One.

The Xbox will now recognize the drive and allow you to format it.
