You can plug one up but you can only use it to play music or view pictures off of. _________________________________________________________

How does the external HD have to be formatted, or does that matter sjohn?? I have an external HD that I wouldn't mind using for music and pictures as well, thanks. _________________________________________________________ Xbox V1.3

Yeah plug and play I think it works with either NTFS or FAT32, not quite sure on the ntfs but I would think it would be fine using that. And yeah it's plug and play just plug it up go to media and music and choose the external device.
EDIT: FAT32 ONLY, sorry guys found out it's FAT32 only. _________________________________________________________
