Advantage of installing game to hard drive?

I know it will make the loading screens run faster, but are there any other benefits for doing this?

I read somewhere that it reduces the noise the 360 emits, is that true?

It saves the disc drive from failing in the future and is quieter.

yea it makes it quieter, i installed mw2 on my hdd and its actually louder when im on the dashboard than when im playing mw2, so yea it gets A LOT quieter

Thanks :D Downloading Dragon Age right now

I install all my games now because it used to sound like a rocket was taking off before.

I know that is very good to install games on the Xbox 360 hard drive for better performance & the disc won't have to spin constanstly, that mean it also reduce the chance for overheating & RROD, but my Xbox is an Elite, so 120GB & I have about 25 games. If I install all of these games, it will eat all the spaces on my hard drive, & I don't think 120GB is enough for all of these games, even 250GB. This is the disadvantage.

Yeah people say above me, softer disk sounds.

You do know that you can uninstall/delete games from your HDD?Just because you install it doesn't mean it can't be removed.I have a 120GB and usually have around 10 games installed at any given time.Anyone who says they need more than this installed at the same time obviously suffers from severe A.D.D:shock:

To the TC,the noise reduction is quite noticable and totally worth it for this reason alone.Slightly faster load times as well.

Question....say a disc get stratched an i get a new one and install the disc to the hard drive...can i put the old disc that got stratched into the Xbox 360 and would it be playible ?....LiNeSs33
