connect portable hard drive to xbox 360 image
Stormie Ly
I have a Startech eSATA to USB dock, and it works quite well. I use it as an external hard drive (because it is 500GB and my computer only has 250GB (I have a lot of movies/music so that doesn't last long, haha). I tried connecting my dock to my Xbox 360 (It's the original one, if that helps any) to use as a portable device to watch the movies on my external, but it doesn't register it at all. I have to move the movies from my external, to my internal, and then stream it through Windows Media Center, which is extremely irritating. Why isn't my xbox reading my dock?

I'm pretty sure that Microsoft made it so you couldn't watch movies straight from a portable device because of how long it would load, but all the potential risk of a possible virus being in the files of the device.

I'm gonna buy a 4GB xbox 360 and a 250GB portable hard drive to put into it

will this work the same as just having a normal xbox 360 250GB????
Answer
No, it won't work the same.
You can't put a standard hard drive into it. Even though it has a standard SATA outlet, it only recognizes Microsoft hard drives. (you should get the original Microsoft XBOX 360 250 GB hard drive for the 4 GB slim... then it will work the way it should)
You can use portable hard drives as external hard drives (connect them via USB), but this isn't as great as an internal one, because:
- Even though you can use the entire hard drive for storing movies etc that you copy to it from your computer so you can watch them on your XBOX 360
- XBOX 360 will not be able to write to this (read only). If you would like to download purchased games, demos etc from the Marketplace, you can create an XBOX Strorage on it, but as it is an external strorage, it is limited in 16 GB of size. Additional space (if any), can be only used as regular computer strorage.
Solution: get the original Microsoft 250 GB hard drive for XBOX 360 Slim... That's what I will do.
