bigger xbox harddrive

could someone please tell me where i can buy a new xbox 80 gig harddrive from a uk website i have searched but found nothing. thanx in advance

 

you just need a lockable PC hdd, then you just have to put it in your xbox and let Evox format it. If you want to buy one pre-formatted then check out this link: http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=207866

He will ship you a drive in the UK.

how do i no if the harddrive is lockable or not and which drive shud i get

 

go to future shop best buy ware ever buy a hard driv and get slayer it dos every thin like locks ur hard drve

 

Would a 60gb maxtor 5400rpm work in my xbox as it only costs £35 and if so wot size must it be. thanx

 

as fare as i now all hard drives work but i sedgest segate or what eve its called but all hard drives should work

 

So are all pc hard drives unlockable and will they all fit into my xbox. thanx

 

im not sher
but as i said segate i think would be the best and i dont think they wold make diffrent sizes for diffrent gigs right ?

 

Mostly all new HDD are the same size now a days. I dont think it should be a problem.

 

maxtors work fine
wd work fine
seagate works fine
just get the biggest pc harddrive you can afford
ive got a max 120 and max 160 but... i would really like a 250. after 14 gigs of songs and 62 xbox games its almost full, and i dont play any of them.just want it all, kids like it

 

Check on this page - near the bottom there is a link to a page that lists all lockable drives and what was used to lock them, western digital seems to have always worked well for me

you only need a locked drive for xbox live

 

And if you run with the chip disabled - if you disable a chip with the drive not locked or attempt to run the MS dash to set the time you will end up with the return for service message.

Plus locking it is so easy you might as well do so - whether you use live or not.

 

why would you disable your chip?

 

why would people do a lot of things?? no idea - but people like to feel nostalgic and boot normal mode every now and again with their originals...

obviously if using Xbox live you have no choice you have to disable the chip.

 

okie dokie

 

well as he said people like the original but thats not relly why its becouse if u go on xbox live with that you will get banned and will nerver be able to go on xboxlive that xbox and i heard but dont know i heard it flashes your chip so thats why
