usb hard drives are supported? but only 16gb max?
what if we make several partitions of 16gb? would that work?

That's why they recommend Flash Drives better lar. I guess overall, a brand X flash drive would have faster random access time than a brand X hard drive.

No, for each device only maximum 16GB can be used.

It seems like the 16GB will be like a different partition since they used the term format and prepare the storage unit. so I think it's like one of those protected partition thigns the thumbdrives usually come with.

Main thing is, the existing data on your thumbdrive would most likely be wiped out when it's preparing the storage area. Of course this is still speculative so... we'll know in about 2 weeks lar.

Finally can install more games

so, this mean YOU-HAVE-TO-INTALL-TO-PLAY generation will begin?

nah, I dont think the 360 will ever be you have to install to play. Cause DVD speeds are faster than BlueRay drives. For the 360 installing to the hard disk is optional, and mainly to... well.. make the unit more quiet since spinning the disc gets a bit noisy when the game is quiet.

and slow also... FM3 loading is slow i don have space since i only own 20GB only and i had FIFA10 on the disk already

So now you can just buy a 16GB drive, install to that, and SPEED UP!

haha no i'll buy portable harddisk if possible/supported...

no use if you buy harddisk, only 16GB can be used.

16GB only??? then more expensive than the HDD itself... i better buy 120 2nd hand

Errr.. 16GB thumbdrive is errr.. 80 bucks?

more than that around RM100 i think...
but if i use RM250 mod in HDD i have plenty of space but scare kena banned only... so i don want to take the risk... see how la... after that date i see how... at this moment my HDD not able to detact maybe power too low... so i might get a external 3.5" HDD with power cord see how...

bagus la xbox360 nih.... memudahkan gamers.... userfriendly

It's always good to see some companies adding stuff to their products as time goes on, unlike one which taking stuff off from their products time to time

what if u take a hard disk and make several 16GB partition? wud the xbox detect as several thumb drives?

I think they are limiting the addressing by the ports (or hubs), only 16gig per port.

Yup 16GB PER DEVICE. to a maximum of 2 devices can be used at a time. The maximum limit is probably to control any insufficient USB powre issues.

i know so bigger HDD cannot use if i buy a external HDD with own power supply then different already mah... haha

man why 16 gb . why cannot 1 tb

well they need to limit that mah for their HDD sales also...
