    I'm at my wits end here. I have a 1TB drive connected to my Xbox360. Thing is, the only way I can get the xbox to detect it is to pull the power on the Xbox. Works fine then. However, everytime I turn off the Xbox, I have to pull the power before it will detect it again.

    Any ideas?

    Is it formatted to fat32? Is it USB 3.0 some of these are known to cause issues.

    Whatever you do, don't format/configure it when it's plugged into the Xbox, the xbox can only recognise 32GB of space when plugged in to USB. Anything more will just be wasted.
