    Hi, I've spent so many years building up my games to where I am now and my Harddrive has stopped working, it says its unformatted and I really dont want to format it because I've got years of work on there and loads of DLC's is there anyway I could get it
    to work without formatting it?

    Xbox One S = NOT FAIR FOR DAY ONE BUYERS

    Original Xbox was supported during (only) 4 years.

    Xbox 360 Elite brought HDMI outpout.

    Xbox 360 S brought internal hard drive.(and external hard drive support).

    ....

    And you're only upset,today.

    Have you tried re-formatting your HDD, yet? If not, it sounds like your HDD is failing, possibly from age (not always). And I know if you format it, you will lose your save data, unless you have used the cloud for them. But all your purchased games, Avatar
    Items, Themes, etc are tied to your account so you can re-download them at a later date. If your Console is still under warranty, you can probably get a replacement part. If not, you may have to buy a new HDD, prices rage from 25-250 USD.

    Good luck, and Happy gaming!

    xbox 360 hard drive not working

    For Original Xbox games to be playable on an Xbox 360, it needs to be an official Microsoft Hard Drive.

    However, there is no official 120GB hard drive for the Slim, only 250GB and 320GB.

    There is a 120GB for the original-style Xbox 360 and the later Elite, but not Slim.

    If you are using a Slim, the hard drive itself will be the problem and you will need an official one.

    Cannot play original Xbox games with my Xbox Slim

    To play Original Xbox games, you need an official Microsoft hard drive.

    There is no official 120GB hard drive for the Slim. For the Slim, the hard drives are 250GB and 320GB (and one with 4GB internal flash memory); there is a 120GB hard drive for the first iteration Xbox 360 and later Elite console.

    So if you're sure yours is the Slim variant, the hard drive itself will be the problem.

    How do I identify my Xbox 360 model?

    From the sound of it, it is either an xbox 360 Elite or Super Elite. To find out, check how big the hard drive is 120GB (Elite)or 250GB (Super Elite). Either way it is an Elite, but with a bigger hard drive. Also you can tell by the usb sockets on the back,
    if it's just one, you have an Elite/Super Elite.

    Why does my Xbox buzz while playing select games and buzz when installing games?

    You're absolutely right. That's the problem with buzzing sounds. I had an Xbox 360 elite that had a continuing buzzing sound from the disc drive. However it could be a hard drive or even a fan. It's difficult to diagnose.
