kinda bull shit that they sell xbox's with only 4 gigs of memory. I play battlefield....and the latest multiplayer update took up 2 gigs. and I can't install the HD texture pack without a hard drive. Xbox just made another 100 bucks off of me because I have no other option. Thanks guys. Microsoft obviously doesn't care about money anymore. They've already made enough! *sarcasm*
Hey Dude. Thanks so much for posting this. I am about to buy a HD for this same unit and was wandering how it was installed. Your video answered all of my questions. Thanks so much.
what happens if you already have saved stuffs on the xbox and you want to change the hard drive. does the data that you have on the xbox will dissappear ?
Thanks for the video. I bought an Xbox 360 S that was supposed to have a 250GB drive in it. Booted it up and said it had no Storage device. Thinking I'd have to pick a drive up at the store for no cost, I looked up how to install a drive in the S, and your video was first. It helped me troubleshoot the issue (the drive *was* there but not seated properly). Pulled it out and plugged it in, and now the S could see the storage. Saved me a trip. Thanks!
Omg thank you sooo much, this video was perfect cuz i got the 4 gb and im gettin the 250 hardrive and i had no clue how to install it. This video reallly will help me and its simple to understand
Wow, this was easy and the Xbox 360 Slim is going to be $139.99 for this Holiday season/Black Friday so I recommend you get it but then when you run out of memory, just get this Internal Hard Drive with 250GB and problem solved. :D
thank you for showing this video man. It always seems so easy once you KNOW how to do it lol. My sis just bought me a 4gig xbox as a present so I'm a buy it some memory thank you for the video. :)
After installing the hard drive when you go into the settings and select hard drive where do you go from there to install it ? Or does it install all on it's own when after you select hard drive in the settings ?
@GameRunner123 Basically you can take a laptop hard drive and drop it in there. It won't line up perfectly because it doesn't have the outer shell but it'll still work. You can search for it and see how they do it.
@mkngrm hey mate nice vid, i bought a xbox 4gb few days ago and im going to buy the 250gb hard drive, the question is that does the 250gb console also have the 4gb extra space?
@Shimcomaru it says 227 gb in your xbox 360 memory settings, because the operating system consumes some of the space up, I know it sucks. It's like the same on my iPod Touch 4th gen 8gb version. It said 6.5 gb free space when I bought it.
@xXGetOwned57 he got it at amazon but they also have one thats 40 bucks but its made by western digital. not official but worth saving the 30-50 bucks
@TheLuuxoR make sure you hear a click when u put it in

After you put the harddrive in does it recognise it right away once it's in,or do you have to change the storage device?
