I just bought my son a new Xbox 4Gb cuz our Arcade is seriously overworked, anyway, we have a 60GB hard drive in it and I was wondering if it could be adapted for the 4 GB or should I just buy a proper hard drive for it?
We are both heavy gamers.

    The 4gb slims take a different hard drive than the older systems do. If you guys are heavy gamers, you're going to want to buy the 250 or 320 gb hard drive for the system.

    Yeah I figured I'd have to...
    I just stumbled upon a video on YouTube regarding how to adapt the old drive.

    I just bought the Xbox 360 4GB Console. He's doing ok with a 60gb hard drive but I hear they're gonna do a major update and I always figure to be safe with more memory. I'd of bought the 250 but my damn budget...

    buy the HD on Ebay....and just put it in the xbox. it will save you a lot of money and it works like a charm...i know when playing you will have the option of which HD to choose from.

    this is the cheaper way and frankly the cash-savvy way imo.
