    Need help with hard drives

    For some reason a lot of people seem to be encountering this problem when trying to transfer from a 20GB hard drive.

    -

    My advice would be to grab a compatible USB stick and use that to transfer over your profile and saves, any DLC can be downloaded again from your purchase history.

    As ngocphi says, third party methods involving the PC aren't allowed and can even increase the chances of you losing your data.

    I needing help with expansion hard drive

    Hi,

    The drive you've bought is not an expansion card, it's an external hard drive. Hard discs are slow mechanical drives and are not supported to run Series X games. You can only achive your Series X|S games to these.

    You need either one these or one of these
