  1. Can't access data on storage drive


    Have a 32GB Lexar flash drive and have loaded 16 GB of data on it. Had been working fine for weeks. When I turned on the XBOX 360 unit today all my data from that flash drive is missing. System is still telling me that the drive is half full but the file
    details don't show that the data is there. Have tried taking out the flash drive and putting it back in but that did not solve the problem. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    :)

  2. Save data not showing up on xbox360 after being moved from flash drive to my PC

    I originally had some save data, user data, and DLC content on a flash drive for my Xbox360. When trying to access data from the flash drive through the Xbox360 storage settings, though, it says that the flash drive is in write-only mode. I took the data
    off of that flash drive and put it onto my PC so that I could transfer it to a new flash drive. After formatting the new flash drive for the Xbox360 and moving the data onto there, the console showed that the flash drive had data on it but it was all hidden
    when I tried to open any of it. How would I be able to access this data again through my Xbox360?

    Can't access data on storage drive

    Unfortunately this can happen sometimes with flash drives. When this happens there is no way to retrieve the data.

    To prevent this from happening in the future please format the drive on your pc before using it on the console.

    Xbox One S keeps freezing

    Have you tried clearing games data?

    Deleting Saved Game Data

    Game saves, player profiles, and other game data is automatically saved to the Xbox One hard drive by default. If you suspect that data is corrupt, you can delete it from your hard drive.

    Please note: Deleting saved game data is permanent and cannot be undone. Therefore, it is highly recommended that you back up your saved game data to online storage or a USB storage device before deleting it.

    Follow these steps to access the System Storage and delete game data:

    From Xbox Home, go to Settings.

    Go to System and select Storage.

    Select Manage storage on the right-hand side of the screen, then select View contents.

    Highlight a game, press the Menu button, and select Manage game.

    Select Saved data on the left-hand side of the screen.

    Choose a game to access the game’s saved data.

    From here, use the Options Menu to delete files or to view more information about a specific file.

    Not enough cloud space?

    You can't increase the amount of cloud space. The cloud on the 360 is only for game save data, not game data. It sounds like you need more storage space for the game itself. You would either need an Xbox hard drive or you can use a flash drive or external
    USB hard drive.

    got a new xbox and my hdd had lost all my data????

    Try to make sure that it is the correct hard drive, if the hard drive is broken, being able to recover your data will be quite difficult, unless if you had used cloud storage, and if you used cloud storage, then you will be able to carry the data over to
    your new console/hard drive.
