Xbox 360 slim users have been wondering if they can use an external hard drive with their new console. The answer is yes, but there are some caveats. First, the Xbox 360 slim does not have a built-in hard drive. So if you want to use an external hard drive, you’ll need to purchase one separately. Second, the Xbox 360 slim supports USB 3.0 ports, which means that your external hard drive will need to be USB 3.0 compatible. Finally, the Xbox 360 slim does not come with a built-in optical drive, so you’ll need to purchase one separately if you want to install games or movies onto your external hard drive using the console’s optical disc slot. ..
