    Hard drive noise?


    I hear a noise besides the fan in the system that i can't hear once I put a game in and it will also kind of stop when I am on the dashboard moving the joysticks on the controller. I would assume it's te hard drive but is it normal to do that?

    :)

    Hard drive noise?

    No, that is not normal. My system made a loud noise like it was revving some RPMs like in a car during an installation. It only happened once and it stopped. I would suggest sending it in for a repair or advanced exchange. Do it while your console is
    under warranty. I have the extended warranty now, just to be safe.

    Hard Drive

    Hello DylanD82,

    From what I'm seeing today, the cheapest are 1TB USB 3.0 laptop size drives for approximately $60US. I have used Western Digital 1TB My Passport drives with my Xbox One and One S with no problems. However, the best price per byte right now is the My Passport
    Ultra Metal Edition 2TB Portable Hard Drive on sale at the
    Microsoft Store     and other online sites for about $100US.

    www.microsoftstore.com

    Good luck and good gaming,

    SA

    kinda sucks that they didn't make the slim hard drive space compatible with my original xbox 360 hard drive

    or is there a way? to still use my hard drive?

    so we can use our old xbox hard drives on the new slim if we strip away the exterior and then place it in the slims hard drive slot?

    Is there a message on the screen like E68? It sounds like a hdd failure. If your console came with the hard drive you have a one year warranty on both console and hdd. If it was bought after the fact, an oem ms hdd has a 90 day warranty. Bit sounds like
    that's the issue unfortunately. You can redownload all items bought and recover all accounts but gamesaves are gone, if it is indeed the issue. For a repair head to
