Which drive is in my xbox 360 slim

I'm sorry to see any storage issues! It sounds kind of like the system hasn't updated to where it has the operating system that allows for this.

Could this be the case? If you're sure that the console is fully updated, try out the USB updates listed on our Xbox Updates support article. That will at least verify you've got the proper update. I would still lean towards a bad console if that doesn't work. The hard drives seem to be fine, based on the troubleshooting you've done by yourself. I suggest taking it back to the retailer to see if they can swap it out.

I have found some decently priced Xbox consoles online, but they come decently priced because they all have 4 GB hard drives, which creates a problem because I have a GB hard drive. I'm pretty sure the hard drive is not an issue with my old Xbox I took it out and attempted to power on the old Xbox with the same results , so I definitely want to preserve the old hard drive memory.

If I buy one of the Xbox consoles with a 4 GB hard drive, do I then need to purchase another GB hard drive to format to the new console, then transfer data from the old hard drive to the new hard drive? Was this reply helpful? Yes No. Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. The S and E models have an internal hard drive bay. You can but your old drive in the replacement console.

The drives work on S and E. I would advise against purchasing a old 4GB model, because if the on-board 4GB flash memory fails it's not a hard drive , you won't be able to update the console anymore.
