System update seems to have tanked my HDD, NOOOOO!!!

Downloaded latest system update today (member of preview beta) and after the console rebooted, it said that my HDD needed to be reformatted, and it appears Ive lost everything on the HDD. Console is a 250gb Elite please help!!!!!

:)

 

2 consoles causing update loop

EDIT: i've just logged on at work and the system update seems to have stuck? i havn't changed anything, infact the only thing i did since going home and updating my home console with the update (again) was install Lollipop Chainsaw to my HDD.

.

Anyway it seems to have resolved itself.... *insert smiley face of choice*

 

My xbox 360 Phat Hard drive is not working.

Contact xbox support, your hard drive may need to be replaced. You seem to be stuck in an update loop, the console will work fine with another HDD, but there seems to be a corruption in the HDD you are currently using that does not allow the system update
to install correctly.

 

Hello BCRICHwarlock.

Have you attempted in rolling back the system update?

Sorry you have not had any response by now, and hopefully you have resolved the issue, but if you haven't, please try these steps below and let me know how you get in with a follow-up

On the dashboard, navigate to the far right and select Settings > Then System > Then storage > Then highlight the hard drive and with your controller press these buttons in order> " Left Bumper, Right Bumper, X, left Bumper, Right Bumper, X " And it will
prompt you to roll back the system update.

If this does not work out for you, please let me know.

Regards,

Dan

 

Ive tried this repeatedly, as well as powercycling, and nothing has worked. I finally gave up hope and tried to reformat the HDD, but every time I try, it fails to format, so Im left with an unformatable HDD and a console that takes 5 minutes to load a game.......I
think its time to buy a One lol
