  1. Is my external driver busted?


    Hey, I have a seagate 2tb external hard drive that I've been using for months to store and play games but recently I kept running into problems with it at first some games would work but some wouldn't, then I tried formatting it to see if that would help but now whenever I install games onto it nothing works, I get prompted with "this file is corrupted" is there any way to fix this problem or is the drive just busted?

    :)

    Is my external driver busted?

    Hi there,

    for Seagate I believe a tool called SeaTools exist which will scan your external hard drive for issues, the tool can be installed and run on a PC.

    After or during scanning the tool will provide information about the drive.

    Depending on the age of the drive you may still have warranty on it, this is can be different per country or region.

    Ok so on the xbox app I cannot change the driver installation and resetting and repairing doesn't work

    I'm having the same problem here, my driver (C:) is the standart, and recently i bought a seagate external HDD and it's assigned as driver (D:) in my pc and the app just doesn't change the instalation from (C:) to (D:)

    ?'s regarding the soflam

    If your teammates don't know your using it they won't just catch on and bust out javelins or guided shells. Its good for annoying tanks and confuse and disorientate. Kinda fun to use unless the driver is immune to jedi mind trick.

    is this the special xbox external driver or a normal seagate 2TB ?

    Going through different times in the one game would be interesting. If I can remember correctly, Driver: Parallel Lines started of in the 70s or something, then you disapeared (got busted I think) and returned to the present day. I thought that was interesting.
