Title: harddrive
Post by: Dcofer on December 12, 2010, 01:44:21 PM: So I just fixed an xbox that I thought was an Arcade but when I try to recover my gamer tagor create a new one it says you must select a storage device but there is no storage device to select. Do I need to get a HDD or can I use an external drive or something? This box is currently only going to be used for netflix so space isnt really an issue. Thanks

I was hoping to bypass buying an xbox drive but I may be out of luck. I htink I have a random HDD that I might be able to hook up to the top SATA port. If I do that is there anything special I need to d oto allow me to save onto it?

That might be something I would be interested in, what might the terms of that be? if I take a while to respond its because I am gonna be visiting the parentals most of next week starting tomorrow and free time might be limited.
