So I have a 2TB External Hard Drive that I use for my xbox one, and I am getting a xbox 360 from my mate but its only the 4GB Slim Model, if I was to plug my my external hard drive into the 360 would I have to format it? Would I lose all my xbox one games on there? I have alot of digital games for my 360 but dont want to screw up the games for my xbox one on the hardrive?

+Rep for any help.

You'd have to get a separate one for your 360

I personally wouldn't risk it, have a look on eBay or Amazon for a cheap HDD for the 360.

It says it on the official xbox site, xbox 360 can only use a external hard drive up to 2TB, I have heard of peopleusing a 5TB on the xbox one.
