External hard drive option needed for Xbox 360

Metroid Meister · Jul 16, 2014

I know that I should of posted this in the Xbox feedback forums but there was no option to post. I have the 320 GB hard drive for the Xbox 360. That is way too small for me because I have many games downloaded on it. I would like to have the option to hook
up an external hard drive to the Xbox 360 for more storage space.

Xbox One hard drive question

I like the external option, the 360 hard drives were too expensive compared to a same size external hard drive.

Issues with installation

I'm gonna be more specific: the game doesn't accept installation on external storage. Whether it's flash drive or external hard drive, the game isn't meant to install on external storage connected through USB just like Need for Speed Rivals on Xbox 360.
You need to install it on an internal hard drive (media hard drive). The link I provided to you aren't external hard drives; they're internal hard drives for the Xbox 360:

You can but it's limited to 32GB partition per USB device. I have a 320GB Slim and I wish I could keep at all my content installed since you never know sometimes you just want to go back and play a game. I figure I need another 200GB to store everything.

I'm losing hope they we will ever patch for larger partitions or official external drives on the 360.

You can delete some games if not enough space.

All Games which you`ve downloaded, you can redownload via Download-qeue.

You can use a USB-Flash drive... like smiling cat suggest

or get a second XB360 HardDrive (Media Drive)..

The Leuter 10

No, the 500gb is a joke. you will 100% need either an external hard drive or to buy the larger 1tb hard drive. External hard drives are just the cheaper option.
