  1. Third party HDD


    Hi All,

    I'm brand spanking new to this forum,and don't know where my original posting of this question ended up, so can I ask again here - I've made a note this time - about using a third party drive in my 360 S?

    Thinking about buying the sonnics 500gb HDD for my 360 S console, but read some where that It will not work with the free games being obtainable through live gold, is this true and are there any other reasons why it won't work? This is the only negative
    thing that I have read about buying one. AND it's a fraction of the price.

    :)

  2. Third Party HDD

    Hey there Jawz! Can you clarify what you are asking here? Again, we do not support 3rd party Hard Drives with the console. If you want, you can use USB storage with the console (more info on that here:

    forums.xbox.com/.../153178.aspx
    ). Thanks!

    Third party HDD

    Using 3rd party hard drives can cause no end of problems with digital games,dlc,save data,etc.

    You're really better off paying a little bit more for an official hard drive.

    Also to add, that using non-authorized hardware does violate the terms of service and can put you at risk for being banned as well.

    Fable download on xbl problem. (Original xbox games Disc/Downloads)

    Are you using an Official Microsoft XBox HDD? Is it a third party HDD? Third party drives do not contain the necessary emulation software that is required for backwards compatibility.

    Third Party HDD

    inside your console No

    the console will not recognize it

    you can purchase offical hds from etailers

    this STICKY covers that issue

    forums.xbox.com/.../4558.aspx

    you can however get a USB enclosure which will let it be used as a 16gig usb drive

    HD required games will not function including original xbox games
