RE: Xbox (classic) HDD upgrade
I did this myself over the Christmas period. Replaced the 8Gig hard
drive in the living room XBox (softmodded) with a 60gig 2.5" laptop
harddrive. The reason for using a laptop drive was that I have a few lying
around spare, and also it should generate less heat which means the fan
won't have to work as hard. Used a little program called
"chimp2.6" which you simply ftp onto the Xbox before you start.
Didn't use a PC just a "Y" splitter to power both hard drives and
the DVD drive at the same time, and hot swapped the DVD IDE cable to the
new hard drive after booting. All in all took about 10mins and I will be
doing my other 3 XBoxes when I get a spare half hour or so.

Subject: [ukha_d] Xbox (classic) HDD upgrade
I guess there must be a few of you who have xboxes with XBMC installed.
Is it possible to upgrade the hard drive and is it an easy process?
I've tried a google but basically get a load of Xbox 360 stuff which
is of no use :(
