thanks........so pretty much the only way to get more storage for my xbox would be to upgrade the hdd, what i mean by that is there no way to stream games from an external device such as a computer

you can't stream because the hdd is only unlocked when in the dashboard.

If your modded up then investigate samba, you can access roms and music and films from the /share folder on your pc, but not xbox games as far as I know because as soon as the game loads it cuts the connection.
