Real HD space vs. Advertised HD space

Just buy a aftermarket laptop hard drive and swap it in. Cheaper and more room. TheSylntChamber

I only have an arcade version, but when you install games to a hard drive, does it mean that you don't need the discs to play em anymore?Skr8THUG

I don't have my 360 anymore. That's why I asked about Elite vs. Premium 60gb because I am going to buy a new one.

yeah I love when people speak of which they know nothing about. Ready to eat some crow? u can't just buy any aftermarket hard drive laptop hard drive then swap it with the xbox 360 hard drive and expect it to work. it just won't work like that. Xbox 360 uses a hard dive locking key and recognition system. so it IS IMPOSSIBLE to swap out the drive for a larger one. end of story, anyone who says they can make it works has yet to prove anything.

there is a way to do it but requires a mod. u need a specific hard drive (western digital BEVS) and do some modifications to it (google it) to make the xbox 360 recognize it. so basically if u want to swap it with a larger hard drive, u need to do some modification. u can't just buy a larger hard drive, swap it and expect it to work.

Wow so you had no idea what you were talking about, got called out on it, and typed it into google and read the first page that came about. Welcome to 07 when that info was current. There are different hard drives you can use now. Read up on all the info before you spread misinformation.

like i said before, you cannot swap the xbox 360 hard drive with any laptop hard drive without modification. the only way to swap an xbox 360 hard drive with a non-official MS hard drive is by modifying it so the xbox 360 can recognize it.

So you'll have to read/flash in a exsisting hdd key to get it to work, even if you can fit a 400GB it'll still be 120GB!

TheSylnt, get your facts rigth before you spread missinformation! ;)
