Xbox 360 Forums

My hard drive that came with my premium xbox 360 is only 12 gigs not 20.

Double post... it's all gravy! Your harddrive comes w/ a bunch of demos and stuff pre installed. Go to your settings all delete all that stuff if you need the memory space...

OH!, I was wondering why mine was only 12 GBs also, Where do i go to delete them?

mine was 13gb when i got it!

when on the 360 dash board, hit the right button until your at the last options menu... I believe you go to "settings" and then "memory"... you'll see a bunch of things (like demo games and videos) that you can erase. I'll double check exactly how to do it when I get home from work cuz' i've only had a 360 for two days, lol!

ok thanks!

About 7 gigs of it can't be used it's for system files etc.

ok kool thanks!

how does the core system work then if it is system files on the HD?
i have the hd and don't think i will exceed the 12 gb....but who knows...maybe

Thanks. i probably wont be using over 12 gigs anytime soon

Good point......How does the core work wihtout it?

I was thinking about this too. You probaly can only play the game and nothing else.

yeh not sure on that but the 7gb missing on the hard drive must be system files?

what else would it be?

Yup. On my 2gb mem for my psp it only comes with 1989mb available. I think it has to be something to do with the system files.

What did you pay for the 2 gig?
