360 says to download game again when starting disk

i bought a 20gb hard drive on ebay that shipped from hong kong a while ago which works fine for 360 games. for some reason when i put in any retail xbox 1 games that are on the compatibility lists that are supposed to work it says something about "the game could not start, please download the game again". i thought this was really weird because it's on a disk, not downloaded, so when i swapped in a different 20gb hard drive into my system the game plays no problem. so it's definitely something with my hong kong hard drive, is there any way to fix this? i formated, and cleared the cache on the hard drive but it still didn't help.
