Think you should first do some "Googling" if you think you can just swap out the hdd for any other.

Well, I never said you were retarded. But you mentioning that you may want to use a 200 gig hdd suggests that you didn't know you couldn't just swap.

It's possible you could get banned. That's because you have to use a legit key from an original 360 drive. Back when the first round of bannings hit, some believe they were banned because they were using their own hdd. You should be able to dig some of those threads up over in the xbox-scene forums.
