I was told by someone that there was a program and cable that would allow you to use your computers hard drive as a hard drive for your xbox 360. Meaning you wouldn't need to buy a hard drive especially for your xbox 360. is this true?

In a sence, it's possible. But you can't just grab any old hdd and expect it to work.

Just read that. Didint' know each HDD had a ss sector also...

The HDD you need is $64 from Newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...ital-_-22136072
Looks like the reviews are filled with 360 stuff, much like THE VIA card.

A couple things...

I've always said before that making your own hdd may get you banned from LIVE. I say that because, like you've noticed BurningAs, each hdd needs a security sector. And to get a ss, it'd have to be from a legitimate drive. Now what's to say that MS can't detect that ss? What if they can... and what do you think they'd do if they detected the same ss coming from multiple consoles logged on to LIVE? They could ban those consoles.

I know... people are probally doing it and getting away with it for now... but it is something to consider.

Another thing, as far as I've read to date, only the WD Scorpio BEV LAT version works with the hddhack. There are 2 versions of that drive... the lat and the rst. Newegg doesn't specify which version is for sale. Some reviews do say it's working, so I'd assume it's the lat version. I guess if anyone plans on buying this drive they should contact the seller first and verify which version it is.

I have decided, after thinking it through, there really is no reason to have a 20GB HDD without LIVE.
