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.

My iomega portable hard drive is not showing up on my 360 when I connect them through USB.
Anybody have any ideas as to why this is?
The power supply works just fine aswell.
Answer
External drives have to be FAT-32 or at least have a partition that is. Most flash drives are already in this format.
