    2TB SeaGate External Hard Drive not working after update.


    Ever since this dashboard update my Xbox has not been detecting my external hard drive. I have tried all troubleshooting suggestions from restarting, holding the power button for 10 seconds, and plugging it into a different port. I can feel the hard drive
    powering on when I plug it in, yet the light on top is not turning on like normal. Not sure what to do anymore but all of my games were on there and I'm hoping it's just a temporary problem with the update.

    :)

    Which external hard drive to use with Xbox 360 ?

    as per the other comments about the use of the external hard drive for the 360 I am in the update preview program which allows additional External hard drives to be used.I purchased the same Seagate 2tb external hard drive as per my xboxone but when I apply
    the format on the xbox360 as per the instructions it replies with unable to format. Would like to know what external hard drives are compatible? I no the hard drive works as tried it on the xboxone after it would not format for the 360

    thanks

    2TB SeaGate External Hard Drive not working after update.

    I found one workaround. I connected the drive to my PS4 and reformatted it to that. Disconnected it and hooked it back up to the xbox one and it was recognized and reformatted it for xbox one and now works fine. Note that doing this you will lose all your
    files. So you will have to reinstall everything over again. Hope this helps.
