Tianken 500G Hard Drive External HDD for Xbox 360, Gray

Hard drive box was damage. I’m yet to see if it still works. Product inside looks to be intact and good condition.

Everything works 100% right out of the box

If i could give this negative stars I would. I bought this back in January of 2021. Just recently got around to actually digging my old Xbox out of storage a few days ago and hooked the new HDD to the Xbox 360 and come to find out this thing came with some parental blocks on it so I cant play any games, download anything, etc. Total waste of money and time. BUYER BEWARE!!!

As described

Being a Founding Member of Xbox Live I have Over a Decade Invested in My Xbox’s. I Have an Xbox 360 Elite with the Jasper Chipset that solved the RROD. It had a 120 Gig HDD. With this Years Influx of Free Games Every Two Weeks for Gold Members I was Rapidly Hitting an HDD that was Way Too Full. So I began My Search for a Larger HDD for My Overloaded Machine. Right Here is where I Found the Largest HDD Ever Made by M$ for the Xbox 360. Not Only was this a Great Find as it is Prime Eligible as well as an Incredible Low Price for the Maximum Sized HDD ever Available for the Xbox 360. I would also like to note that the Item is as Stated. It is Brand New, Unformatted, Sealed, and Arrived on Time. My Xbox 360 Elite is Black and the New HDD is Gray which is a Non Issue. Snapped Right on, the Writing is in Chinese which I’m sure is there origin. Formatting went smooth as Silk I Already Owned a Transfer Cable so after Moving all Content from the 120 Gig HDD to the 320 Gig HDD I could Finally Breath a Sigh of Relief and had Made a Future for my Console. That’s My Story, and I’d Do it all Again………. P:eace

I have been reading these reviews that say it does not work and they are getting some sort of error message or its not formatted correctly, but I purchased this because Microsoft did not offer an official hard drive on Amazon. Despite all the bad reviews, mine is working just fine. No loud fan or speed up noises, formatted to 290gb which is expected as you lose some of the data when formatting hard drives. The only issue that everyone is guaranteed to come across is that original Xbox games will not function! Original Xbox backwards compatible games are only supported by official Microsoft hard drives. But, there is a very easy fix if you have a way of connecting the hard drive to your computer, like with a Microsoft Transfer Cable or a 3rd party cable of some kind.

Worked fine just not for my situation! Having this hard drive connected it would not allow me to play Original Xbox disc games that I owned, so this was not for me. But it was a killer value for the storage capacity if u r looking to play Xbox or 360 downloaded titles. I have an XB1 so did not need it.

Great job / Thank You

Price was good and the space is amazing. Anyone looking for a spare Hard Drive, this is definitely a good deal.

soon as I plugged it in problems started every time you did something with the dashboard or when playing online and someone joined your party or game it made the xbox freeze as well as when I was transferring my data over it took over a hour to move 1gig so I would never buy another one or recommend it is recommended going to gamestop and buying a 250 gig no Hasle or wait involved
