Latest Xbox 360 system update is live, now supports 2TB hard drives

4.7
Xbox 360 now supports 2TB hard drives via the latest system update for the console.

Support for the drives was announced earlier this month and has been available for preview members.

“In addition we will also no longer reserve space in advance on your hard drive,” said the firm. “If you are using 16GB of hard drive space for games – we will only take 16GB of space. And just like today – you will be able to use two external drives at a time.”

Here’s some of the other features included with the update per Major Nelson:

Larger external USB hard drives – Plug in any external USB hard drive up to 2 TB to store your Xbox 360 downloads, profile, saved games, and other data.

Purchase history – To view your recent purchases, go to Settings > Account >Purchase History.

Password reset – You can now reset your password by selecting Forgot your password? at sign-in.

Network statistics – View download speed, upload speed, and signal strength, go to Settings> System > Network Settings. Select your network, and then choose Network Statistics.

See your money – Your Microsoft account balance now appears in the top-right corner of the Xbox Dashboard. To turn it off, go to Settings > Profile > Account Security.

GibbityTree Wow! I can't believe it took them this long to add a network statistics list to 360. I have been asking for this for years and it finally happened lmao!!! Seriously should have been implemented years ago though.


Living in Leeds, England - I'm disappointed that Microsoft has a latency of 160ms.

I expected better from Microsoft, like actually having a server in the UK.

Still only 2TB huh? I wonder if they'll bother going up to 4 or even 6TB drives.

This long for down and up speeds huh?

Grimlock love the 2tb they added. But I also thought you can already see your purchase history before.


Purchase history is just a shameless plug to download IE for Xbox, pointless.


Couldn't you just go to where you can license transfer to see purchase history?


You're thinking of download history..

They should have implemented this earlier but better late than never.

ChelseaFC4Lyfe Nice to see they are still bringing out big things to 360 but in fairness they could have brought it out early.


There seams to be a few nice things being released to the 360
