If it does, I'm definately getting one

Wow...... that's actually not too bad. Still overpriced but way less then I expected.

That won't work...it's the reason why everyone hasn't installed a 500GB HDD of their own in their Xboxes
The Xbox won't read other HDD's

Those covers are just to replace broken old covers.

It does actually work. You buy the drive cover, then buy a 250GB hard drive that the 360 will recognize for dirt cheap, save yourself like R500.

Let me google that for you!

It won't recognize it automatically, you need to hack it first. Still need to find time to try this out. But first I need to try and backup what's on my drive ATM.

Correct yes, you need to flash the firmware on the hard drive with the correct security code, that's why I put the "Let me google that for you!" link at the bottom, some very good tutorials on how to do it. If you aren't that clued up with your PC it can be tricky, if you are, it will take you all of 5 minutes. It definitely works, my current 360 HD is a 250GB sitting in the 120GB case that came with my 360.

Yeah, I know there are ways to hack it, its like saying why buy expensive games when u can just copy your friends game on a blank disc and save money...
It can be done but then you need to "hack" your machine.

Ok maybe that comparison is a bit wayward, but my point is someone can't just buy a standard HHD and expect it to work

EDIT: On that note...can MS detect your HDD and ban you from LIVE if they see its been tampered with?

Thanks so much for posting Xenophone, I will definitely be getting this, that's half the price of an official 120 gig HDD.

totally bought if it comes out.
