Hard drive problem with white xbox 360

My white xbox 360 just started acting really weird. It can't load up any games when it has a hard drive in it. I have two hard drives and neither work so it's the xbox itself that is the problem. It doesnt matter if the game is downloaded on my hard
drive or one of my usb's or on a disc. As long as a hard drive is inserted it won't load up games. It works without a hard drive but I want to know if there is anything I can do to fix it.

Some of my friends are having the same problem with the 20GB hard drive and an original XBOX 360 but my other friends with an original XBOX 360 with a 60GB hard drive and up do not have this problem... I assume it's the hard drive?

The console you have, is this the Xbox 360 Slim white edition with the 4GB internal flash memory with an official Xbox external hard drive attached to it?

 

Try to clean your console cache:

support.xbox.com/.../clear-system-cache

If that doesn't work format your hard drive

Important When you format a storage device, all of the information saved on that device is erased and cannot be recovered. Make sure that you either do not want the information stored on that device or have backed up the information to another device before
you continue.

To format a storage device

Press the Guide button on your controller, go to Settings, and select System Settings.

Select Storage or Memory.

Select the storage device that you want to format, and then press Y on your controller.

Select Format. You will see the following message:

This will delete all content on this device. Do you wish to continue?

Select Yes to format the storage device.

If you are asked to enter your console serial number, do so, and then select Done. This step helps to guard against accidental formatting.
