If you returned the HD you're buggered,you will not get your other HD back (i found this out to my cost when my first one failed,when the second one failed i asked the helpline and was told just the console was to be returned not the cables or HD).

formatting will erase everything! is it not possible that you only have 20gb left on the hard drive?

i only sent the console back not the hard drive , so i put my old hard drive on the new console and its come up with i only have a 20 gig hard drive , since ive been on xbox live i only have 5.7 gig free , when i go in to settings and press memory it says its only got about 20 gig ??????????? when in my old console i had 60 gig ?????????

Define "Got about 20 gig"


A 20gig drive only gives you about 13gig of space, even when new......


I dont know how anybody can manage with a 20gig drive anymore, i only have 60gig worth of space on my 120gig drive


My Graw2 folder is around 9.8gig in size
My mate has a 20gig drive and has to juggle his map packs and stuff as he is always running out of space

Is there anyway to copy your old stuff onto a bigger hd? my 20 gig drive has 500 megs left

Yes, you can get a transfer kit from MS

or you can usually pick them up on fleabay quite cheap, although they are free from MS

Mine took around 7 days, although i read some horror story's on here about it taking a month, so painstakingly transferred everything over 1 at a time via memory card, then re downloaded all the map packs, the very next day, the ****en ******* transfer kit arrived from MS
