    hi i purchased a sata hdd under the direction of my dads advice. it didn fit my pc as i told him i thought it woudnt. but now i never got around 2 sellin it on and im presuimng 250gb hdds probly kinda lost there value now with the average size increasing on what seems a daily basis. so i was gonna out it in my xbox... no reason really just seems like a gd idea. 2 watch films from it mainly. but i opened it up n then membad it was a sata and the xb one wasnt. is there anyway around this....? any help will be apprecuated. sorry if this has been bought up elsewhere but i searched n found nothing

    you can buy some adapters, but they are quite unreliable, and I doubt it would work with xbox, I think you would have great success selling it, try ebay, you could probobly net at least $50 USD.

    lol in future im in the uk anyway would probly be a lot of hassle. i may even take it to a computer fair and ask if they would do a straight swap for an ide of similar size as sata is the more valuable isnt it??
