As the title asks " can I use an external HDD with my xbox?"

Bit behind this question is.... I have an old fat xbox 360 elite 120HDD and have the new kinect dash. But I installed RAGE and all my DLC and now I only have 20GB to cover BF3, Forza 4 and CoD:MW3 so what I am asking is can I use a 1TB extrenal HDD to use as external memory?

Any serious help will be +Repped!

you can use any external or usb memory sotrage device(I beleive the format must be FAT32)

All you have to do is plug it in to your usb slot, go to memory, select your drive and click y configure device.... and your ready to go it will act same as any genuine microsoft hard disk.

if you ever choose to use it for something else you can unconfigure it or partition a certain amount of memory for other uses,like pc and still have your xbox files aswell.

Thanks, this was the idea I had but just wasn't sure If you could use a 1TB HDD cause they are too big and that they have an external power source?

+repped anyways

As for the rest of you, you guys I'll be Repped too, cause you give good info too!
