Is anyone else dissapointed in the 14 gig hard drive? When i got my 360 i went through the system memory part of the dashboard and said there was 13.7 gigs remaining. I heard from someone that its 107 on the elite.
Just delete stuff man....... oh and if you really need stuff then delete your music (if you have it) and buy an mp3 player or connect you PC to 360 and play your music that way.
I have plenty of space.. i delete my demos every now and then and same with the videos plus i just started deleting game content. Hell once Halo 3 comes out i'm not playing Halo 2 so why do i need the map packs? I've also stopped downloading themes because while they arn't very big i don't use any of them. I haven't changed my theme of Halo since i bought my 360. They just waste space and if i keep getting them they will eventually take up quite a bit of space and they are a hassle to delete.
Who knows i may buy a 120 HDD eventually, but thats only once they are cheaper. For the most part i never go under 10 gigs so why bother getting something bigger (oh and also having OXM helps a lot to keepings demos and trailers down).

if you download alot of demos videos and arcade stuff, then you probably want the 120, but if you just play games and download demos before you buy the game then you'll be fine for quite a while, i only have 7.5 left on mine but i have about 6 demos saved on it.
Go to the system dash. Press memory. Then harddrive. Then press "X" These are the biggest files on your HDD...Just know that "Making of 360" vid is around 500 MB.
When I got my premium (a week ago) I ran out of space with in a few days. I was pretty pissed to find out its only a 13.9 GB hard drive.
I know you can delete stuff but I don't want to have to be re-downloading all the time, plus I want lots of music and videos and even the dlc for games.
I had about 13 demos (is that a lot? lol idk) and some arcade games (about 5), after that I was totally out of space. What I did (or am in the process of doing I should say) is return the premium and for another $50 buy the elite which has 100 GB more HD space. Plus I found out the elites in a nearby store are from a new shipment (only elites btw.) that all have the new chips in them which are cooler and quieter 8) so its definitely worth the extra $50 IMO.
I've had my 360 since it launched and still have about 11-12 gigs remaining. It's called maintanance. Unless you download all those shows from marketplace, you're good.
