Xbox 360 Will Soon Support External USB-Memory Storage for Games
A leaked technical paper from a top Microsoft software development engineer is hinting a possible update for the Xbox 360 console that will enable it to support third-party USB external drives (flash drives). If it is true, this is a most important improvement and will make it at par with the Sony PlayStation console which has had USB drive storage support since 2006. The document stated that due to the advancement of high-capacity and high-throughput of USB mass storage devices, it is time for the Xbox 360 to be compatible with them.
