I bought an Elite a while back and I have heard of people hacking and putting pictures/ videos on there Hard drives. How do you do this?

Is it possible?

I just plug in my 500gb external drive to the usb post and listen/watch whatever I want, no hack needed.

you can also do it with a flash drive.

Share an external hard drive with your computer. If you have a PC or want to use the Zune software, you can link your 360 with your computer and play music straight from your computer with no hack, I think this works for movies and pictures as well. I think you can share stuff wirelessly if you have the wireless thing for your 360 as well, but I could be wrong, I haven't done any of this myself though.

802.11n ftw. My girlfriend's computer is faster wireless than mine is wired, plus her computer looks cooler and she has boobs, so she wins.

The 360's wireless system does not work on the "N" band though....or does it? :thinking:

There will be no real lag because of other people using the same connection, so it won't affect his gameplay or anything. I can't remember why I was recommending he use 802.11n anymore, I guess I was thinking for his laptop.
The 360 definitely does not use "N" band though, but it would benefit from the stronger signal. The website says that you can stream recorded video and movies from your computer, but as STILLANEON says, it may be slow.

Im not sure. I want to put the videos/pictures on the actual hard drive of the xbox. Im wondering if there is a way to do that. Im thinking I could plug the usb into my laptop and try to get Vista to recognize the xbox harddrive as a removable disk?

Hs anyone done this before?
