Google is great for finding the actual components, I have not seen such a device but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Also I would like to point out that the largest hard drive capacity supported by the xbox is 137GB (or more specifically 137,438,953,472 bytes) This limitation is enforced by the fact that the xbox IDE chipset uses 28 bit LBA (logical block addressing). Although Maxtor and a few other companies have recently released a new standard which utilizes 48 bit LBA, the LBA bitdepth used is a function of the CHIPSET, and Unfortunately, 137GB is all the xbox will ever support. No future BIOS update can change this fact. But as this project illustrates, there is a way of moving beyond the 137GB barrier on the xbox. Another thing to note is that there are no 137GB drives. If a drive larger than 137GB is used on a controller that only supports 28 bit LBA, the total drive size will be cut off at 137GB
