I have a Xbox and I would like to know how much memory is on the internal HD of it, all I can find is 50,000 blocks but I went way past that I'm now at 53,777 I think. But if anyone knows the answer please let me know.

It must be, because I have over 15 different game saves on it and over 25 Music CD's. I'm trying to turn it into a Music system

^^ no thats not really alot, alot for a game console, but not a lot for a pc harddrive. my pc has a 180gb harddrive and i have used all of that up all ready.

Did you know that there are Hardidsks out there of 250 GB? Whats wrong with people today?

Did you also know that a couple of years ago the biggest Harddisk around was 6 MB? Yes, i said MB. I that time it was huge, 3 games on a floppy disk! Now a days we have game that are 6 GB easy, and then you haven't even installed it fully yet, the most part is on the DVD.

Esentially, at the time of introduction, the Box was the only console with a harddrive, so yeeeaaah,

Well, I now have 70 CD's on it and yet no sign of the blocks going down yet.
