I doubt many of you have this problem but I'm going to make this anyway. Some people may not be able to upgrade their hdd in their xbox because they have a laptop and they can't put a 3.5" hdd in it. Instead of putting the interna; hdd inside your computer you could make it a external hdd by doing this: First get all the parts you need a SATA hdd or an IDE hdd. You can gwt a Seagate 200GB hdd for $50 from outpost.com and a 3.5" USB 2.0 externa; hdd case for $33 at xpcgear.com. IF your computer uses a slow USB 1.0 this probally isn't for you. First you have to make sure the drives' manual and check jumpers are set to the "master" position. then screw the hdd into the case. inside the case there is a power cable and a data cable. Connect them to the drive. Close the case and connect the power (if needed) and the USB. Now you FTP to your xbox and get your C and E drives and put them in the external hdd. Then once you've done everything you need to do take apart the external hdd and put it in your xbox.
