Hi all, just bought a 4gb kinect bundle yesterday. My question is, apart from using a 16gb thumbdrive (or is it 32gb as some mentioned after the upgrade?), what are other available methods to increase the hard disk space? been browsing this forum & members mentioned about getting a bigger HDD. i wonder whether that refers to external HDD or just replacing the component inside the console? And i was learned that only MSoft HDD is compatible with the console. Can the experts here enlighten on this issue? Thanking you in advance for your explanations.

buy a 320gb or 500 gb WD and flash it ..will cost about 160++(microsoft offcial hdd is over RM 350+

there are ppl selling 3rd party 320gb hdd in lyn garagesales at RM210. It easily install with no complications.

Ahh, i see. But is it compatible with the unmodded console & won't void warranty? sorry for asking too much people...

theres no way your going to get the original hdd for anything cheaper than RM350, unless your in the states that you might able to get it less $100

personally, i feel that MS will not make this as a priority. They will mostlikely target pirates, modders or glitchers on xbl. Having the 3rd party HDD is low on the list, unless you decided to tweek the files inside.

If the HDD is done correctly, it is compatible with unmodded console & won't void warranty.

So far I used those China OEM HDD without a problem for few months dy.

As long as PS3 allows normal HDD, I don't think M$ is stupid enough to stop gamers on point blank for this

So,what you guys are saying is that I can use a external hard disk instead of getting a HD which must tweak and adjust the setting?

Nope, the xbox uses laptop hdd so you either buy a WD laptop hdd, flash it yourself or just buy a compatible xbox hdd. The former is cheaper if you know how to flash the hdd and the latter is more expensive but it's hassle free.

Couldn't find one of those compatible Xbox HDD yet. But I did ask a shop to help me to flash another HDD though. The price..I have no idea yet.

It's everywhere in Lowyat & Sg Wang the last time I surveyed...

I think I'll use this. This is the one right?

120GB je ke?

The price is not justifiable....

Same seller sell also this & this

Bought the HDD last night. Working marvelously, just slot in & play. Thank you all for your feedbacks & assistance

Just go ahead and do it. There is no way MS is gonna ban you for using unofficial HDD. Im using it foir 5 years now and no problem.
