    My Xbox hard drive broke


    So I was playing Xbox 360 one day and I was gonna update the software. Exactly as I pressed ok I accidentally turned my Xbox off. I turn it back on in a panic and my account and games were gone but the hard drive still said it had the memory on there. Yet
    if I open the hard drive everything is empty. I've tried formatting and clearing the cache but it still says there is memory on the drive. I can not download anything because it says the memory is not formatted. Any advice would be helpful because I can't
    use my thumb drives for everything.

    :)

    Hard drive on XBox says "Unformatted"; this has worked in the past

    Hi. My Xbox broke yesterday so I took the hard drive out from the broken xbox and put it into another xbox console. The error message said "Unformatted Hard drive". What can I do to recover the data?

    The Game Downloaded won't play on other profiles.

    Would this be true even if using the same hard drive and a different console? As I'm having the same problem but with mine craft as my boys xbox is broke and they're currently using my xbox but their hard drive.

    Right but if it broke while playing a game one would say the game broke the Xbox. The code is a general hard drive failure regardless.
