Is this fast enough for use with the Xbox 360? I "configured" this USB Flash Drive through the Xbox 360, and when the process finished, it told me that it didn't meet specifications and would not perform as well as a device that did. Is that something...

this usb does not meet performance requirements, ive tested it, and it doesnt work, if you are planning on running installed xbox games from the usb

Yes, it works fine in USB 2.0 ports, usually faster than a 2.0 flash drive in the same port. You won't get the screaming speeds of a 3.0 flash drive in a 3.0 port, but it's definitely an improvement over the 2.0 flash drive.

In short, your answer is yes. While formatting the drive, the console may display a statement about perfomance issues. Most probably pertaining to the USB drive's read/write speeds. In my personal experience, writing to the drive is average, albeit a little slow. Reading from the drive, I have yet to see any issues in using this exact USB drive.

Anyone who owns the XBOX360 Sandisk could post reading and writing speed (use h2testw or similar) so that it's easy to compare with other USB disks and know if M$ + Sandisk are cheating us...

Yes, it will work with USB 2.0, just at 2.0 speeds. And I'm currently using one of these as external storage for my 360, can't tell you for sure how the XBone works though.

I had ordered the 500gb and it did not work with 4GB Xbox 360. I'm not sure if I received a defective one. But I ended up returning it.

I use it in a USB 2.0 port. It is slower than if it was in a USB 3.0 port. However, it is considerably faster than my older Kingston 32GB flash drive. It's a good device.

I put this USB drive thru a lot of abuses. I use it mainly for game and profile saves for my son's 2 Xbox 360. It is plugged and unplugged often. we haven't had a problem yet

I will test it tonight and see. Last time I checked though it performed at good speeds. But I am only using a 4700rpm drive so I may be maxing out the read/write on it anyways. But from my experience it performs a lot better then 2.0. Also another note is that if you plug this into a 3.0 port you don't need to use the extra USB cable for power. The 3.0 port can put out enough juice to power the whole thing. I didn't know this before I bought and honestly wasn't a big deal, but helpful to know now.

Sorry, can't answer that one. I would think so, but would verify first. I formatted mine with exFAT, because it showed 250 gb but filled up after 33gb. Might need to find out exactly what the xbox usb supports first.

that is generally depicted by the quality of the flash device you are using. i have used a patriot usb that shows no serious speed improvement over usb2.0, and i have a Kingston that is faster than any usb flash ive seen. this card has been stable, reliable, and quite fast during my usage. (use at work in IT environment daily)

you could, but it would be a waste I think the xbox 360 has usb 2.0 ports, so you will not see any increase in speed over using a cheaper usb 2.0 thumb drive also, the maximum usable size that an xbox will use is much smaller, maybe 16gb, so the extra space will never be used edit: I just looked it up, in 2012 they increased the size limit to 32gb, it was 16gb before that you should be able to get a 16gb usb2.0 thumb drive for around $8 I just got a lexar 32gb usb 2.0 for 12.48 in a boxing week sale

regretfully I am not familiar with the Xbox as such. But I would offer that if the Xbox is USB (either 2 or 3) it ought to plug into the hub. The only question is whether the USB powers any part of the Xbox system. I have to admit that I have since changed my 4 port USM for a seven port hub made by Plugable. I had no problems with the four port other than I needed three more ports.

The 360 will take any two external USB storage media up to 16 Gigs (for a total of 32 Gigs). If you tried to use this, your 360 would likely only read 16 GB of its total capacity. You're better off buying some cheap thumb drives or networking your 360 with whatever computer you have the hard drive plugged into so you can stream your media.

You can use a real USB thumb drive with the Xbox 360 (it will format it so it's only used on the Xbox). A counterfeit drive will lose all your data and game saves. Please read the reviews and don't buy this!

Here is a post I found that seems very useful:Go here to make your flash drive work on Xbox 360:http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2777 Note: I have not personally tried this. Basically it explains that the 2010 online update makes it so things should work properly.

Hi Bandi, Technically, your drive is capable of making disk-to-host transfers of up to 110 MB/s, and USB 2.0 maxes out at 60 MB/s, where USB 3.0 maxes at around 125 MB/s. Your drive will probably never reach 110 MB/s, but I would suggest using a USB 3.0 enclosure so that your drive can run as fast as it pleases. Besides, at some point you'll probably upgrade even your "backup drive", and you'll want the speed. On a personal note, I love this enclosure. You'll need to buy some little rubber feet from the hardware store to keep it from sliding around, but other than that, it's great! Jack
