When you install a game with multiple disks does it eliminate the need to change disks? I always install my games and also install disk one of multiple disk games but wondered if i should install the rest?

I would recommend installing the others, as it still reduces noise and heat, however you will still need to swap the discs for the initial disc confirmation read. ;)

I believe so. Since each disc has unique content, I'd say install them all for best performance. Its alot of HD space, but you can always erase the intall when you finish the game.

Ensure you have an external hard drive with a USB 2.0 adapter. The type of drive is not important; it just needs the USB 2.0 to connect to the Xbox console

That's sort of interesting. When I installed Mass Effect 3 recently, it was kind of weird. The game seemed spread out in a nonlinear fashion over the two discs.
