ok i have started downloading the games the groups have been realeasing and was wondering seeing as i dont have a dvd writer ..i want to play the xbox games through the harddrive, well my problem is if i run out of space when i am downlaoding games, what should i do ?
just keep buying harddrives and transfer the games that way..also any good sites for cheap harddrives :)

Thanks

well a dvd burner will cost you around 2x more than 1 80 gig drive, so do the math that way......

or think about it this way.

dvd-rw costs around $2 some people $1...anycase that's $2 for 4 gigs storage so a ratio of 1:2

hd 80gig from pricewatch is $79 dollars. that's a 1:1

although the cost of the dvd-rw is more...the storage medium is a little less. and right now for about $250 you can get one. that was the same price for a cd-rw a few years ago when the psx scene started...so just a thought..
