usb external hard drive?

is it possible to have a usb hdd for storage? ive looked and no one seems to have covered this.

 

yep as long as your xbox can format it, you can plug it up via usb adapter for your xbox and it will be listed as J: assuming you havent added a flash drive or anything, you will have to format it using the xbox console though

 

does xbmc do this for me?

 

unleashx can

 

Nice way to get a big memory card. That's why it hasn't been talked about much. Most people just use a usb stick.

 

If I installed a USB port on my modded xbox, could I just plug in like a Jump Drive, and use it to transfer files from other computers, or Xbox's. Also, could I just install this to my system, instead of doing a DIY USB connection.

Yes, I have the Xecuter 3 CE chip installed.

 

well i was thinking along the lines of needing more room for games. in that case, can you use symbolic links with xbmc?

 

if my xbox formats it, will it still be recognized by windows? read/write?

 

if you can unlock it or get something that can read the xbox fatx file format

 

ah yes, technically i should be able to leave it unlocked since it is just storage right?
