    Is it a USB powered HDD? Some USB powered HDD have issues when the USB port does not supply enough power. If that's the case it can usually be solved with a dual USB adapter.

    i have a dual usb addapter on the end but alas still nothing. When connected to my XBOX i scroll along to videos on the XBOX dashboard but the Portable Device tab is greyed out.

    Have you tried the USB port on the back of the machine? That might be powered as the transfer kit instructions insist that you must use the back port.
