    Default External Hardrive?

    Well yeah,
    I only have a 4GB xbox, and I was wondering, Seeing as though you can use a normal memory stick to save game profiles on, can you use an external hardrive? All I really want it for is to save my gamer profiles on, and my Bonus disk of forza as thats like 3GB? Lol,

    Help would be appreciated. Cheer's.

    Sorry for the delayed response, I have been off work sick, so I haven't been on the PC.

    You can use an external hard drive for it, but the Xbox will only allow you to use 16gb of it (that is the USB stick limit). I don't know if you could trick the system and partition the hard drive into numerous 16gb partitions and use them all separately.

    I wouldn't try using an unofficial HDD inside the console. It could get disable by Microsoft during an update. The official one is only £64.99 at Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hard-Drive-3...8644232&sr=8-1) and this is the larger 320gb one and it comes with a free download code for Lego Star Wars III.

    If I get chance over the weekend, I'll partition my external HDD into numerous partitions, and I will see if my idea in my first post works.
