    Title says it:

    I am looking for a Western Digital Scorpio 120gb. I need to mod it to use with my xbox 360 slim (if you already modded it, then cool!).

    For trade for such an item, I have a sata 160gb Hitachi HTS545016B9A300.

    I have a WD1200BEVE. I could look up an xbox whatever that is but this is easier. Were you looking for PATA? New in sealed wrapper, labeled re-certified.

    Nope, gotta be SATA.

    Xbox? fer real, mi amigo? I'm totally NOT a gamer, but my wife insisted we get one last Chrismas (rather, I drop too much money on some "thing" that we use to watch netflix, and my kid plays a few games on).

    XBox is the microsoft game console. We also have the 'Kinect" for it. That's a webcam designed to track your body movements, and correlate them to acitons in the game(s) you are playing.

    Kinda cool.

    I want the drive, so we can just copy our games to it, and not have to load/unload/wearout/scratch the games for it (backups only, for real. if you get caught with pirated games on your xbox, it gets blacklisted from xbox live (xbox internet). NO THANKS,I DON"T WANT YOUR ADVICE ON HOW TO BYPASS ANYTHING)....

    I'm creepin up on you, Jeff.
    The older I get, the less I care about tv (even then, I mostly netflix old tv shows from 20 years ago)
    I don't watch the news.
    I can't stand Facebook.
    And I play video games about %5 less each year (it wasn't much to start with).
