How to Install the Xbox 360 Slim Hard Drive (1080p HD)

gamexcess.net
Maniac shows you how to open up the Hard Drive bay in a new Xbox 360 Slim (it's REALLY hard to find if you don't know where it is) and what to expect if you have either a 4gb or a 250gb model.

[@gladoshatesyoursafespace2653]

"If you have a 4GB system, it's going to be absolutely empty." Thank you VERY much for clearing my mind.

[@Gorex_Real]

XD

[@FarmYardGaming]

That had me confused for a while until I saw this lol

[@tico1999]

Who would have thought 11 years later and this video would come in clutch lol thanks

[@KKnarleyxx]

[@PotassiumBromide]

Does your intro really need to be like 40 seconds long?

[@Shadohz75]

ikr. AND a 30 sec outro.

[@maxjr.3717]

***** "Faze, do you really have to be an a hole?" Is what you meant to say.

Thanks dude! You explain things really well and I appreciate your help! Keep up the good work!

[@daderpiest4581]

You have no clue how helpful this was. Thank you so much!

[@RoadeeArnoldChannel]

Thanks for this video man! Thanks to you, you made upgrading my Xbox Slim an absolute breeze! Thanks again for your help!

[@Docluck]

I really appreciate this! Thought my new 320 GB wasn't working, but I wasn't pushing it in until it "clicked", as you mentioned. Once I heard that, I pushed it a bit harder, now it works! Thanks again!

[@DomiNathanSports]

Thank you maniac because of you I got my Xbox 360 320 GB hard drive at ease and you saved me 10 minutes of figuring out how to open my Xbox 360 Slim and put in my hard drive.

[@mistermeedioker]

Thank you, very helpful video. You made it clear and easy.

[@solitarywanderersw7394]

Very helpful! Thank you. A very good tutorial. The beginning was a bit you know... But a good tutorial overall.

[@user-ec2yx9kw2g]

I bought slim hard drive from china or somewhere, i had no idea how to use it. None. I don´t have any manuals for my xbix360 either. I was raging almost at the point i was nearly crushing my xbox. I looked for the internet for instructions, only text and this and that. Then i was listening to music and thought that maybe there would be EASY INSTRTCTION VIDEO OF HOW TO INSTALLING THE HARD DRIVE FOR SLIM MODEL and found THIS video. It made my day!! It made my next day and so on felt happy! Thanks man! Definetly worth watching, take care etc.

[@jesse113553]

Thanks alot for posting this. I was actually baffled by all these crazy Xbox confusion. I looked everywhere for that slot but I coudnt find where it is. I was pretty pissed. You are my hero.

[@daytona2134]

[@zakiyajohnson4104]

[@danielcontemprato7150]

[@zakiyajohnson4104]

[@lcoop266]

Just tried again I had to push mine in harder as if it went right in and its working now. Thanks for video

[@theminecastgames8756]

Maniac thank you for showing me where to put the flash drive i bought, thank god you made this video.

[@Ravenous1369]

I am about to purchase a Halo Reach edition Xbox 360 off of Ebay and according to the seller the system works but has its hard drive removed for the moment, however they also state that if the drive is installed the system will work just fine. Your video was very helpful and well commentated, i hope that I'm not wasting my money on the system.

[@meathismeathy]

OMG YOU ARE AMAZING I had no idea where the hard drive slot was, and now I know everything!

[@Viigilantee]

Thanks for makin this video, i was kinda lost on why my xbox didn't pick up my harddrive..it didn't click. i was afraid to strong-arm it so, i came here for an answer.
Thanks man.

[@lightsaber7863]

THIS WAS SOOOO HELPFUL

[@JTJacker]

Wow, thanks guys I never would have found that I've had to delete old data in the past...this has helped A LOT!

[@thedarknessfighter]

Thanks man, I am finally putting away my stubborn ass and buying a console from this generation, and this video was exactly what I needed.

[@Jerko5000]

Thanks so much. I bought myself one but didn't know what to do with it and this video helped a lot.

[@danielgrvff]

thanks dude, I would have never found it without your video

[@DerekFietz]

Thanks bro! It helped a lot, I was going to open the actual xbox up!

[@Matt92Machine]

Thank you sir, this tutorial helped me a lot. I am very new to the Xbox 360.

[@EnforcerIsaac]

Thank you so much, I have wanted to play some of my old original Xbox games. Thanks for showing how to install/insert the hard drive!

[@Ivan3152]

I was not pushing until the click. A brazilian appreciat for your help.

[@thedarknessfighter]

Thanks man, I am finally putting away my stubborn ass and buying a console from this generation, and this video is exactly what I was looking for.

[@farcastk0]

thanks, just got a 60gb delivered and this helped

[@rydermarieonyt]

Amazing and simple how-to. Also, you would make a great radio voice, maniac.

[@RageOnAStick]

Thanks for the info. I bought the 4gb because I was on a budget at the time but I looking to upgrade it in the new year with the 320gb harddrive. I was just staring at my XBox and wondering how the heck you put in the harddrive. Not exactly obvious to those of us who aren't as experienced at gaming. Thanks again.

[@myxxnamexxis13]

Thanks for the video. You'd think finding out where this hard drive goes would be simple to find out considering it's only about opening a tab on the bottom (which I didn't know was there) but it isn't easy. I looked in a few places with bad information. Thanks!

[@Zigmods223]

Thanks man! You really helped me out! I honestly didn't know that there was actually a flap on the side/bottom of the console. I thought you had to screw something out or something. Anyways, thank you very much! :)

[@yummyxvenomzirlvideos4254]

thank you man I new about that compartment but I didn't know what you need for it

[@nickraymond2071]

I got battlefield 4 and I was furious but I bought one off of amazon but I didn't know how to install it this helped so much thank you

[@MrShawnMelton]

wow thanks man. I had no idea that compartment was there. luckily I kept the hard drive from my old 360 for over a year lol thanks a lot

[@pickleboy443]

Thank you!! You really saved me here because I only have the 4 GB 360 and i was running out of space to download war games off of Halo 4.

[@s1gnex]

Thanks for this video, just bought 320gb HD for my 4gb slim.

[@question.everything.alltime]

Thank you so much man, couldn't figure it out until I saw this video.

[@traceycrosss]

Thank you so much for this. I only bought my 10 year old a 4gb model. He just got halo 4. The multiplayer disc needs 8gb of space. Now I know what to do. CZcams can be so helpful sometimes.

[@mackenzievincentini9809]

Thank you helped out so much I was so clueless at first thanks a lot man

[@Merchantic]

[@ThestealthyFridge123]

very helpful, thanks man!

[@tomromer3]

Thanks man you really helped us

[@dragutradu6744]

Thx man it was really useful

[@PixelBrainMush]

Thanks for the info. Also, I discovered through Amazon reviews that ONLY MICROSOFT makes the hard drive that works with original Xbox games, installing games to the hard drive makes it run better, and there is a 320gb HDD available now.
I bought the official 320gb even though I'm probably never going to use the whole thing. I like the idea of not needing to upgrade.
