Yeah I have one of the original 12 gig hard drives and it gets filled up quick. Some of those expansions can be fairly large.

Iv'e got a 60GB hard drive for my Xbox and I have over 15 DLC's stored on that. If you want to, you can either get a memory card and save it there, save it on the MU in the console itself (if its not already taken up) or get a larger hard drive (60GB reccomended) if you don't have one already.

You need to get a bigger hard drive to fix your problem.  Unlike the PS3, in which you can buy a notebook HDD, you can't do the same with an XBox 360 HDD as they are proprietary.  Check Amazon for some deals, they've got a 320gig HDD for $99.

Think you can also use a standard usb drive,  the xbox will format it and use it.

Actually, you can replace the hard drive in the PS3.  It comes with instructions telling you how to do it.

This is correct, however they recomend using a 10gb usb drive or smaller.  Some larger flash drives work but many don't.

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

LOL!  For some reason I read it as attaching an external drive.  One of those "DOH!" moments.  Oy

Surprised Ack Ack did not jump all over that.  I would have. :)
