But i'm going to ask anyway Razz Is it possible to hook up a self powered USB external HDD to the XBox?? I was thinking would it see it as a storage device or not??? As I said probably a daft question.

yes you can, and yes it can be formatted to be used for nomal storage and gamesaves, i'm not too sure you can run games from there, since you can't load .xbe from non-ide storages.

If you plan on using Linux you can use it like a regular HD as well.

So is it just a case of plugging it in and the xbox recognises it? If so can you play media from it i.e mp3s or divx?? Cheers for the response NKnave you truly are XBox ninja Very Happy
