Chrissy Bee Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Can anyone tell me why my supposed 20gb 360 hard drive is actually more like a 14gb one ?? A bunch of the disk is reserved for the sake of backwards compatibility. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissy Bee Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 6gb out of 20gb seems a bit bloody servere though does it not Some of it is lost because a 20gb disk has 20,000,000,000 bytes, but in reality a gigabyte is 1,073,741,824 bytes, not 1,000,000,000 so the xbox (or any PC, etc. that you put a hard disk in) will only see 18.5gb or something anyway.
