Hey guys sorry if this question has been asked before. I just wasnt able to find it anywhere! I had an old laptop that crapped the bed a few months back. I was planning on putting the hard drive in an enclosure. Now if i did that and hooked up to the 360 via usb. Would i be able to play music and videos on the xbox? and be able to put the music in a playlist? Streaming the music from my current laptop is annoying cause im not able to create a playlist. I currently have a 20gb but just purchased an elite. It should be here sometime early next week. Any help would be great

I used to have a 120GB external HDD attached to my launch 360 and played media files and such from it. However, my Jasper (which later broke) didn't recognize such the same drive. I've not tried doing so with my new Arcade because I don't find that I play much media from my Xbox anyway. If I did, I'd probably just stream it wirelessly instead :)
