you just need a lockable PC hdd, then you just have to put it in your xbox and let Evox format it. If you want to buy one pre-formatted then check out this link: http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=207866
He will ship you a drive in the UK.

Check on this page - near the bottom there is a link to a page that lists all lockable drives and what was used to lock them, western digital seems to have always worked well for me

And if you run with the chip disabled - if you disable a chip with the drive not locked or attempt to run the MS dash to set the time you will end up with the return for service message.
Plus locking it is so easy you might as well do so - whether you use live or not.

why would people do a lot of things?? no idea - but people like to feel nostalgic and boot normal mode every now and again with their originals...
obviously if using Xbox live you have no choice you have to disable the chip.
