    Someone please help!!! I bought a Slim external HDD so I can download games and info. from my laptop and take them with me. I don't know how to format it so when I download something it will download to the external hdd and not my laptop hdd. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance.

    Try this: Right click on My Computer/Manage. This opens up Computer Management. Scroll down to Storage/Disk Management. You should see the drive there. Right click on it and you can format, make it active, assign drive letter, etc.
