    My XBox 360's 250 HDD is full. Want to use a second drive I can swap out. How do I set up profiles and such for both drives?

    Basically, I would like to be able to power down my 360, change the HDD which attaches to the top of the tower, and have my relevant data, profile stuff, and the like on the second drive. Naturally, saving data on one drive won't magically sync to another,
    but I have the spare drive, and I would prefer not having to use an external drive. Eh, just a personal preference really. Is this possible, and if so, how?

    You are my only hope.

    No, seriously, because the contact us thing is being glitchy, and I can't use it to contact them to tell them the contact us thing is busted so I can't contact them about the hard drive thing I originally contacted them about.

    They should get a 1800 number so we can contact them. A toll free number, for my xbox!

    :)

    Yes, you can copy. Information on how to do so can be found HERE.

    I have a spare drive which attaches on the top, which I would like to duplicate basic things. Can the 360 copy data, or only transfer it?

    I think they only came out with memory cards if I can remember correctly? Or was that the arcade model?

    Besides the internal hd is possible to connect external hd, I've used them and flows normally, it just needs to recognize and when saving a game or download it will ask where you want it to be stored.
    Just to add onto this a little, the 360 will support up to 2TB's of storage.

    "Larger external USB hard drives – Plug in any external USB hard drive up to 2 TB to store your Xbox 360 downloads, profile, saved games, and other data."
