Re: usb stick

Ive seen it done for the xbox but not for the 360. With the xbox, you could just plug it in and it would format it. And please read the sections before you post. This is the xbox section. Not the 360 section. Read before you post next time.

Re: usb stick

You would need to be able to reformat it to FATX or whatever the 360 uses. I know the xbox uses FATX and you can format by just plugging it into your xbox. But the 360 recognizes it as media and not a drive to be formatted.

Re: usb stick

The 360 won't use USB devices to save game data. That Datel is just a microdrive stuffed in a slick case for storing media.
