Today I got my PS2 from freegamingsystems.com and Ultimate Matrix from freedvds.com Good day for me. I already had a friend lined up to buy the PS2 a month ago, so I bought a used xbox and modded it. I did a TSOP flash, 160 gig hard drive upgrade, Clear xbox case, custom jewel, jewel light and added a hard drive activity led.

New2Scene, where'd you get the HD? I need to buy an internal to put in a case for my Mac Mini, and that deal is pretty sweet.

They do, but I'm thinking of just getting one and putting it in an external case. Either that or getting MicroNet's MiniMate.

do you have to format the hd a certain way for the xbox to recognize it or does it know what the deal is regardless long as its pc formatted?
