I asked them if I could just get an external harddrive and download new game file and save data to there but they said I have to first download everything into system memory before moving it into the external harddrive. Is this true?

As long as the data in the system memory is not corrupted, you should be able to move everything to the HDD (including the game, DLCs, save data, everything).

You can also download and install the game directly to the HDD, there's absolutely no need to first download on the system memory and then move it. 

Sweet! I rather not have to pay money to play some free dlc but I don't want to miss out when they initially release! I I'll look for an external hard drive now and delay fixing the system memory later.

Thanks again everyone for all your help!

I know not everyone does but you should buy an external with it's own power cord rather than get one that is USB powered (if you can find one that also has a fan that is a big bonus).  Also I'll back up osed125.  I have tons of digital games and they seem to download straight to the harddrive (as indicated by the HDD access lights)
