I bought my 360 system on monday and was checking it out and notice that i only had like 11 gigs available. don't understand why is it that they advertise 20 when you realy only get half of that. Any explanations?
i delated some vids, but still not a dent. maybe if i delete all the music in it? what else could i get rid of that is truly unecessary?ocdodger
Delete all demos, music, pictures ect... that come pre-installed. That should free up about 2 gigs. You'll still only see about 13 or 14G out of the 20. MS reserves the the rest for future updates or what ever. It's stupid to have a 20g HDD and only have a little more than half available.
If you keep deleting games that you don't care for anymore (Or sell back to a store) then 12/11 GB is a lot. I have 11.7 GB and I've had it for over a year. Around 2 GB in games saves (mainly because of downloadable content like Gears and R6V map packs). Â

yup, kinda shady when they advertise the 20 gb hdd, when you're only able to use less than 75% of it. i wish their HDD's weren't propietary. i want to get the 120 gb as i DL alot, but damn... so expensive... guess i have to sacrifice and move some of my data. *sigh* i'm already out of room due to DLing both the Bioshock and Stranglehold demo's (2.5 gb for just the two demo's). not complaining about the size, jus' wish i had a cheaper option to gain access to more space. don't flame me cuz i know i'm not alone. and don't tell me to purchase the hdd for 2 bills.
