    Harddrive failure and replacement


    I had my Xbox on the insider program, although I don’t think I was even in the Beta ring. I believe my Harddrive failed and I replaced it. Running SeaTools on the Harddrive it fails. When I installed the new hard drive it will not update. This all happened on Sept 12 and one month later the OSU still hasn’t allowed me to run the update. What can I do to get it to work without sending it in. By the time I get it back I will probably buy a series X.

    Hard drive failure?

    Seems like a harddrive failure to me. Try removing the harddrive from your system and reinstall it.

    You could also try to reformat it, but if it's broken, the error will return shortly.

    If all those options won't work, contact Xbox Support to get it replaced.

    console deleted everything and says no storage device

    Hi there,

    -

    The first thing to try is to remove the hard drive and add it again like mentioned here:

    support.xbox.com/.../add-remove-hard-drive
    to see if that helps. That does fix the problem sometimes.

    -

    If that still fails then you might have a hardware failure and it would be best to try the harddrive on a different console to determine if it is the harddrive or the console that is having the failure.

    If the failure is identified (console or harddrive) then you will be able to request a repair or replacement via

    Is my xbox dying? :(

    This is definitely a harddrive failure. You will have to replace it or get it repaired if possible.

    If you want to be safe (ie sure you have no problem with the console), use only your usb and try to do everything you had problems with.

    I hate dying consoles but I think your's is fine even if the harddrive is busted, hopefully.

    Harddrive Failure?

    It sounds to me that you are having hard drive issues. If everything is deleted off of your HDD without cause that would be a big indication that it is becoming faulty. As far as your saves if you didn't back them up or save them in the cloud then they are
    gone and I am sorry to hear about this. As far as everything else you may have had (anything you purchased from the marketplace.) That stuff is licensed to the gamertag that downloaded it and the console it was downloaded to. So you can simply just re download
    it.. Sorry about your saves. You can call customer support and let them know what happened and see if they think that the HDD needs repair. If anything happens again like things vanishing off of your HDD you may want to use a thumb drive and see if it happens
    and that will let you know if it is the HDD. Also save your game save files in the cloud from now on. You can always copy them to your HDD if you really want to but just in case this ever happens again all of your saves will be backed up and you will not lose
    them. Again sorry to hear this has happened to you
