Xbox original Hard Drive Upgrade!
Hi everyone! As some of you may know, the original Xbox came with 8 gb of Hard Drive space. Seeing that I've been in the Xbox Homebrew scene for a while, I decided to upgrade to 160 GB to allow me to save the games and other homebrew applications straight to the console. That means no more disc swapping all of the time. Below you will see some of the pictures I took from the process. Expect to see more Xbox Homebrew stuff to come, as I have suddenly re-gained interest in the console. Anyway. here are a few shots from the process:

Sucess! New hard drive installed
Screenshot of storage information, F and G drives have a combined 141 GB free. Sweet!

I didn't realize you could do things like this...
But I guess xbox is just a PC, so why shouldn't you be able to? xD

That's what makes the Xbox so awesome, it runs hardware so similar to the pc. That's also why we got a awesome port of halo to the pc.
Everyone should do this mod, the only problem is finding a compatible hard drive.
(A§H»rUnRiÕt and I do a lot of console modding, I did his softmod he did my hard drive upgrade. I think the next mod I will do is make the jewel logo on the top of the Xbox clear and light up and also change the color of the led on eject button.)
Have fun,
Brandon
