Title: Difference in XBOX elite vs. Regular 360's?
Post by: Xak on December 30, 2013, 05:54:26 AM
The internal HD is only  4gb?? The weakest external is 20gb isnt it? Havent owned a 360 since 2011 I forget.

That is the only difference in the two correct?

Thats not the one,I guess I got the name wrong which is why I said INTERNAL HD system.


I guess its called the Slim? 4gb is NOT enough. Even though its an attractive system lookswise.

So the only difference is looks and GB memory?

Read everything on that page, genius; it lists every configuration sold currently or discontinued.  All systems sold in recent years are 'slims'.

* edit *

The newest revisions are the "E" versions, which I believe are functionally identical to the "S" versions but shaped more like an xbone (boxy but good, like a Volvo).

The XBOX Elite was one of the original Xbox 360 consoles, but it came in black and with a bigger HD.  What you want now, would be the new S models.  They come with several different HD options, so space shouldn't be an issue and also have the built in wireless, which the original did not have.  I wouldn't get a used one, as now the prices are coming down on new ones.

(I feel it's alright to go off on a tangent in this thread since that's all Xak's been doing in other threads lately...:D)

The 360 has always had a tard pack available with no hard drive, the newer slims have the 4 GB in there so that at least it has something to save to. I actually bought one of the tard packs anyway just because it has a matte finish instead of fingerprint magnet gloss, but I threw a 120 GB hard drive from an old system in it.

Read everything on that page, genius;

(http://dvdmedia.ign.com/dvd/image/article/722/722859/galaxy-high-school-volume-two-20060802000429418.jpg)

Galaxy High is an American science fiction animated series that premiered on September 13, 1986 on CBS and ran for 13 episodes until December 6, 1986. The series was created by movie director Chris Columbus and featured music and a theme song composed by Eagles member Don Felder.

Despite its short run, the show has since become a cult favorite.

Don't believe me?  Look it up!

You should consider the 360 slim...  they use less power.

Yes, you can...  But, you will not be able to play original XBOX games, and I do believe you will have to put the drive in a 360 casing.  The drives arent that expensive, may as well just spring for a unit with the bigger drive already in it.
