Has anyone used a xbox slim when in a car? Will the disk get messed up?

Yes, the Xbox wasn't designed with mobility in mind. unless you set up a custom suspension for everything the disk will get scratched hitting a bump on the road this happened to me.

Keep in mind that you will need a 110V power outlet or a capeable inverter in your car, first.

I'm having the same problem as Anthony - I have two of these, but one keeps reformatting itself whenever I turn off the XBOX. I tried formatting the drive into NTFS, but to no avail. Any other ideas?

No it can't out of the box. I was able to mod mine so that it will. There are some YouTube videos on how to make a 360 backwards compatible. If you're good with computers it's not hard.You need a SATA-to-USB cable (such as the Xbox transfer cable but MAKE SURE it's for the slim as the other one won't fit) to hook it up to your computer. You download a program called "Xplorer 360" that can read and write to the HDD, and you download the partition that allows for playing original Xbox games, then you use that .bin file to run a restore on partition 2.After I did that, I popped the HDD back in and it plays Halo 2. Before it gave me the error message. No it can't out of the box. I was able to mod mine so that it will. There are some YouTube videos on how to make a 360 backwards compatible.

i believe it will. i used a flash drive for the xbox to play grand theft auto 5. it's working well. just make sure the flash drive you buy is big enough for the game

As I recall, the 4 gig slim's flash memory doesn't keep the temporary files from Halo games, and you can't store much on it. But anything saved to the flash memory will still be there and can be copied or moved to the hard drive as well. And any achievements are saved to Xbox Live's servers, so you even have them if you log in on a different Xbox.

Hunter I do not have a Xbox 360 Slim so I cannot say for sure, but a quick search came up with this...http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20130423162256AABZtjGSo I am guessing it probably would work just fine, although that Xbox owner say it will only use 32GB of the drive.Hope this helps,Ken

I'm not sure how different the results would be compared to the slim, but with my 120GB slim it caused stuttering and freezing, so I no longer use it.

I don't know. You might want to do a bit more research on the External Drive and the xbox in regards to requirements of the xbox and the capabilities/specs of the drive.

I bought the PS3 like 2 years ago. I believe that the slim version is the most trustable PS3 models. I've run heavy games like skyrim and GTA5 and haven't had any issues. Proper cleaning and ventilation is required in order to keep the console in good conditions since over heating may be given.

It has worked without any problems for the PS3, XBOX 360 and XBOX one for me. It has been very transparent since I installed it as well.

It does damage the CD drive. It damaged mine's, and I drive a standard Honda Civic. Made my dashboard all warped looking. Avoid.

I would encourage anyone with an XBox slim to pick up this hard drive. I have had this HDD for over 2 months thus far without issue.

From my understanding it doesn't have the actual xbox partition and regular xbox games cannot be downloaded to it. I've had it for 6 months absolutely no issues and have many games saved to it. I don't think battlefield will be an issue because I've saved data for blackops on it.

Yes, we have the same Xbox. And my husband plays GTA all the time :) It works great, weve never had any problems!

I had the unit with my original 20gig and it worked fine. Then I upgraded the the Slim and it worked fine. Then I upgraded to the latest firmware and ..... wait for it..... it works just fine ;-) I dont know about everyone else, but mine works just fine. I find it ironic that I am controlling my PS3 Slim with my Xbox 360 Harmony remote ;-)

It does fit in a PS3 slim with a very slight modification to the HD caddy. I installed it about a month ago with no problems at all.

You need to return it. It's not a Microsoft HDD and sometimes the xbox wont reconize non-Microsoft branded products. Return and have them send you a replacement
