Hi everyone! I got a strange situation with seagate external hdd. A model is Seagate Expansion Desktop 2TB (STBV2000200) USB 3.0. I can't play games from it. When i try to start a game i got message: "The game could not start. Please download the game again. For more help, go to www.xbox.com/support.". I got the same model and everything is good (i can play games from it). I read a few posts about similar problem and this is what i've done to this moment: 1) hdd is formated to fat32 - i try a lot of programs (paragon partition manager, easeus, guiformater, formater32, gparted and others) and also try a hfs+ formating - still got the same problem. 2) i try a different cluster sizes (2-256) and when i set a cluster size from 2-32kb xbox original dash, fsd and aurora see a hdd in file manager - i can copy to hdd and from hdd. when i set a bigger cluster size i got message from xbox "new device connected. refreshing discs" but it cannot beeing seen with file manager. From original dash i can see a disc but i cannot do anything with this hdd becasue i got message it is wrong formatted. 3) when fsd see it in file manager i copy a game which works from other disc but when i start it i got mesage "game could not start". Game dont have an errors when was copying because i copy game from this feral disc to pendrive (in fsd file manager) and from pendrive it starts. 4) I try aurora, fsd i used from xboxhdd, new fsd from pendrive and still no luck. But all this dashes saw games (i got list of games, can download covers but can't play) 5) Game in GOD format launching, but in XEX and XBLA games don't. (But i don't like GOD, i got games in xex and i don't want to changing all stuff from xex to iso and from iso to god:/ ) 6) I got latest dash and kernel. Everything is updated (aurora, fsd, dash, kernel) The strangest thing is that i got the second hdd, the same model and it works perfect. Also my coleague buy the same model and his got the same problem. I buy this model because i got one and works good. It still works but can't play games from it. So maybe anybody have a clue or know the reason why that happens? Things i can do: I dont formatting it from original xbox dash because maximum size of partition is 32gb, but i do it later and try play games. I have also a third disc (the same model) which i used as my data bank for photos, movies etc. I buy it earlier when i buy this hdd to xbox (and works perfect). So if everything failed i can copy photos and other stuff to this feral disc and try with another. But still i'm curious why i can't play XEX games from this hdd...

Hi, I had Indie games working on my internal hard drive but to save space I want to put them on an external hard drive. I have put them on the drive under folder USB1:content0000000000000000584eo7d20000002 I have the game path pointing at USB1:content0000000000000000 and have retail as automatic and devkit as XBLA with a scan depth of 2. They are showing in the homebrew folder and launch but I get a message saying the file is corrupt. Also is there a way of using 360 content manager to upload your games to USB1 as the default is HDD1 and I can't seem to alter it. Thanks.
