Use a pendrive as a hard drive on the XBOX 360

The XBOX 360 is Microsoft's flagship console. The different features that it presents make it one of the most versatile devices of the moment. About a year ago, Microsoft released an update that allows you to connect a pendrive as if it were a hard drive . This feature is very important, as it can facilitate the process of saving games as well as allowing the installation of games on the same pendrive in models that do not come with your hard drive, such as the Arcade for example.
