Microsoft Blocking Unauthorised Storage Devices

That Datel memory card of yours is about to be rendered unusable.

A post appeared over at Major Nelson’s site recently, announcing that the next dashboard update will prevent unauthorised storage devices from being used with the Xbox 360.  So if your memory card isn’t licensed, then you’d better get one that is, and fast.  Here’s the full lowdown from Mr Nelson himself.

“When Preview Program members start receiving the Xbox 360 system update next week, one of the changes is that unauthorized Memory Units will no longer work with the Xbox 360. If you’ve moved your profile or saved games onto one to “back it up,” you’d better move it back onto an authorized Xbox 360 storage device prior to taking the update. If you continue to use an unauthorized Memory Unit after the update, you will not be able to access your stored profile or saved games.

If you need help identifying officially licensed Xbox 360 storage devices or accessories you can read more about the licensed accessories program on Xbox.com“
