...Play CD-R's, RW's or any other copied media. I would have expected it to at least play CD-R's and RW's! This is proving to be a bit of a pain.

Also how big is the standard hard drive?

You will need it modded - Microsoft had to try and protect themselves from making pirate games easily

for info try

You dont necessarily need your Xbox modded to play CD-RW's, depends what DVD drive you have in your Xbox. I have the Phillips drive in mine which happily plays copied CD-RW's. The Samsung drive is the best one which'll play most things you can throw at it.

yeah my sammy drive reads just about everything i can throw at it.

What Dvd Drive Do I Have?

Mine also plays anything but it is chipped and according to the above link has a samsung drive.
I think the standard hd is about 8gb?

[james.miller]

yeah standard is 8gb. i also have the 10gb seagate that they used for a few xbox's, so i got lucky there too lol

Mod it, chuck in a bigger hard drive and then FTP stuff across. Doesn't matter what DVD drive you've got then

Yep sounds like a plan!
