  1. Transferring files from one External hdd for Xbox 360 onto pc?


    So recently when i turned on my Xbox 360 Slim, it gets stuck (not frozen) on the screen that shows the Xbox 360 symbol with the start up music, BEFORE i get to the dash board. I took out my HDD and it worked, but i have no data since all my data is on
    my external HDD. I listened when i turned on the Xbox and i heard some feint clicking noises, and i assume that my HDD is broken or the reader is broken. Is there anyway to tell whats wrong, or is there anyway to transfer files from my HDD to my PC.
    *My HDD does not use a USB port, it slides into the side of my Xbox 360 Slim.

    :)

  2. Xbox unable to read media files beyond 2TB in 4TB external HDD

    I have a 4TB external HDD plugged onto my xbox one (1TB with 80GB space left). My external HDD is filled up with approx 2TB data. Now the new video files that i add on the external hdd is not being detected by any of the video players in xbox but they are
    readable from my PC. The existing video files work fine in the xbox. How to fix the issue?

    Very strange external HDD Problem

    Hi everyone

    I have a problem that's only just started on an external HDD... I have an external 5TB drive that is used to store MKV files I have made from my dvd collection. Basically i made the MKV's with makemkv saved to my laptop then transferred to the external HDD. These are then played via connecting the external HDD to the xbox one

    Everything has been working fine (some 400 films), then I decided to save the output from makemkv directly to the external HDD connected to the laptop (rather than copy them over from the laptop). I did this for about 20 films, but now none of the new films will play in either media player or VLC on the xbox (all other films prior to this work fine). Ive even tried making an mkv file the way i did it previously and copy the film to the external hdd but these don play either. If the drive is connected to the laptop all films play fine. Its also worth noting that the films that dont play in media player on the xbox one also dont show a thumbnail tile (just the play symbol)


    This is driving me nuts. Any help appreciated

    Transferring files from one External hdd for Xbox 360 onto pc?

    Unfortunately it sounds like the hard drive is going bad. It happens sometimes. You would have to try using a data transfer cable to see if it will transfer your files from the old one to a new one, but if it's broken that may not work.

    Xbox files are not meant to be seen on the PC. So it is a violation of the terms of service to transfer files to a PC and vice versa.

  6. I got my system to work with the HDD inside, and it shows that the HDD is there, but all my data is gone and its asking me to format it. I have tried to format the HDD but it does not let me, it says that there is an error and it can not format. What can
    i do, i have made peace with the fact that everything is gone, but i still wish to use my 250 GB hard drive.

    Unfortunately if the hard drive has gone bad there's really nothing you can do to save it.
