    External Hard Drive Troubles!!!!


    Hey Guys I need your Help!! I bought a Seagate Expansion 5TB Desktop External Hard Drive USB 3.0 (STEB5000100) and was doing really well recently until today where it just up and stopped working. Ive tried unplugging it and back in again (Even the console)
    and it has still yet to work. It starts up for a brief second, the blue light on the External Drive flashes after awhile then turns back off. I dont know what else to do. My last resort will to be to buy another USB 3.0

    :)

    External Hard Drive Troubles!!!!

    Have you tried plugging the device into the computer? That might help determine if there is an issue with the device itself. I have a similar issue now where my xbox will not detect my device at all but the power light is solid for me and my computer says
    that it is working fine.

    Game Won’t Download

    It's possible that the file on your external hard drive is corrupted which means that you may have trouble moving it. You may need to reformat the external hard drive in this case.

    Restarted xbox screen went black and never restarted so I unplugged...

    Are you using an external drive? Have you tried unplugging it and re-plugging it in? maybe is a trouble with the hard drives, inside or external.
