What’s the biggest size HD you guys have run on your boxes? I’m thinking about upgrading to a 400, 500, or possibly a 750 but I've read you can’t go past a certain size because you will have data corruption. I want to compile a list of who’s using what reliably. This way I can make a good decision on which way to go. I went to http://xboxdrives.x-pec.com/ but I want to compare it to the resaults you guys are having with big HD's

i have a 250 and thats all i feel you realy need. jus keep the games on it you play the mast and burn dvd's of all the others, and make emulator disc(since they can take up alot of memory).

it just depends on the cluster size you are using.... 16k clusters, your partitions start corrupting data ususally at 275ish, and 32k clusters, i dont remember where the limit is, but its pretty big.

As of right know they are making one drive. But most of the stores I've check have anywhere from two to five Segate 400gb IDE drives. I want to make sure I get the right one because I dont want to spend the money to then have problems later on.
