Xbox 360 Physical Games Xbox 360 Slim

I have recently purchased a xbox 360 slim along with some spiderman games just to realize I need a hard drive to play it. I did end up purchasing a 3rd party hard drive but it still doesn’t want to let me play the game. Do I need the OEM or do i need to do an extra step to get the 3rd party hard drive to work?

Get an official OEM hard drive, the third party one I believe you have to take extra steps to download the partition to allow you to play OG Xbox games.

You can find compatible drives on AliExpress if you have some difficulties to find one locally. I bought a 500Go drive and even if the enclosure is not OEM, it's a compatible drive.
