The loading of games ontot he HD is a big thing for me. I had one game get ruined somehow in the drive. SOme games seem to be noisier than others too. I would only load whatever my most used game(s) were as I only have the 20GB drive.

Im leaving for a week tomorrow so I wont get to really look it over for a bit.

yeah i have a 20gb as well. really tempted in buying the 120gb

it's not necessary, but i have a shit ton of burned games that take FOREVER to load

there's a link i was looking at earlier that'll let you mod a 120gb western digital hdd to work on the 360

you install the games to the HD...you STILL need original disc in the xbox tray to even play the game. This is to prevent dumbasses from going to friend's houses and "installing" the game to their hard drive

no more overheating and disc read errors FTMFW!!

Really that's lame. I assume the point of this was more so that you wouldn't have to get up to switch discs. I really wanted to put RB1 and RB2 on there and leave GoW2 in the tray since those are the only games I play. I've heard that the HD performance isn't better so if you need the disc in the tray the ONLY other benefit than heat I can think of is that the xbox would be quieter.

Never got a disc read error yet.

Best feature of NXE to me is the upgraded "party" system which allows you to essentially have an up-to 8-person "private chat".

It's a relief for those of us who are tired of listening to weirdos singing in the lobbies and in-game during COD4/5! LOL!
