Geoff and Burnie's hand try out a series of USB flash drives to see which one works best with the new Xbox 360 Dashboard Update! They chose to install Borderlands, because of the 3.3 gig file size (which would have fit on the 4 gig card had it worked). Join FIRST to watch episodes early: bit.ly/2wf5zPJ

I love how Burnie's hand gets progressively more detailed as the video goes and also this was very informative.

@TacoWrath95 11 лет назад

They don't recommend external hard drives because they are cheaper than the original Xbox hard drives.

@Otto_von_Chesterfield 10 лет назад

Theoretically flash based storage should have better non-sequential read times in all scenarios. So a hard drive might hang while trying to load the last little tid-bit of data but flash storage won't.

@Xavieus 10 лет назад

Doesn't matter that it's cheaper, you could have the biggest hard drive in the world and only use 32 gigs of it

@fhm4 9 лет назад

Diego Alzaga Flagship phones still charge you $100 to go from 16 GB to 32 GB.

@hipster_tacos 9 лет назад

Th3Fizzle If you mean Apple, then that's because they suck. But you can upgrade an Android phone's memory with any micro sd. Which means I went from 9gb to 32 for $20

@fhm4 9 лет назад

Diego Alzaga Android is an operating system, not a phone. And iPhones go from 16 GB to 64 GB for $100. Samsung Galaxy S6 does not have micro SD support. It also goes from 32 GB to 64 GB for $100

@TEKNO640 9 лет назад

Jody Schweigman less PC master race for me and more (i did my fuckingr easerch befor buying anothe rocnsole [had 360, deciding between one or pc)... pc has more then payed itself off with various sales and never needing to replace parts in a set time with a vast purchasing of games... even counting waiting for them to get cheaper i counted in what repairs and new games would cost on the one and it would never pay itself off. plus theres PC games that aren't available on consoles and that's a one way streak. helps when you go to college and uni to make wise decisions, but i guess you gotta think fast when you're trying to get that last work placement in mcdonalds.

@EchoMerrill 10 лет назад

If you want speed, I suggest looking into the Kingston DTHX30. It's a USB 3.0, sizes vary from 64gb, 128gb and 256gb. Mine benchmarks at 275MB/s read, 150MB/s write. *Probably* one of the fastest benchmarked USBs out there at the moment. I highly recommend it.

@schmintendont 10 лет назад

The thing is though, the Xbox 360 doesn't have USB 3.0, so it won't be able to write as fast as your specifications you listed.

@VyperEye89 12 лет назад

You can also use your old 20gig xbox hard drives if you have them laying around. You just rip it out of its original enclosure and put it inside a cheap external usb enclosure and you're good to go. Those drives are pretty much useless for anything else since they're locked, but the xbox still recognizes them through usb and formats them to 16gb just like any other drive!

@fsociety6983 12 лет назад

True, but I've never thought of the disc spinning as being particularly loud, certainly not much louder than the Xbox itself. Although, I suppose it would mean less scratches to the disc and less chance of damaging it.

@bobo888bobo 12 лет назад

I haver read elsewhere that the size limit is 16gb. You could plug in something larger, but only be able to use 16gb of it. there are 2 front usb slots, so that makes 32gb, and if you wanted more, you could have multiple thumb drives and swap them in. the best price now seems to be around 0.50 per gb

@RadarMunn 7 лет назад

I remember when I wanted to get the Seagate external hard drive for Christmas and seeing it was over 70 dollars. Now I can get a 2tb drive for just about the same price. Eight times more storage at the around the same price in about 5-6 years. Oh how electronic ingenuity has changed.

@hayzeus666 12 лет назад

@TheLivinCarefree 11 лет назад

The reason to install the game is to improve gameplay, it allows loading screens to load faster, etc. The reason you still need the disc is to verify you still own the game.

@thebrentsharp 12 лет назад

For games you buy on discs, very little. Cuts down on load times and can increase draw distance slightly depending on the game. The primary focus for using a flash drive, in my opinion, is for DLC storage and digitally purchased games.

@nossarian 12 лет назад

Compared to the recent rapid advance of technology, I've lived through at least 15 iterations of data storage in digital format. Prior to the 1900's we had two ways of storing data: paper and vocal.
