Now that we have another program to help us out with the hard drive, can someone post what the directories used in the hard drive are? and preferably where useful things such as demos, games, saves and themes are located...

Does this update itself?  If it does, then M$ would be able to see what files are on your HDD simply by looking at one file!

No, it's not updated.

Although I suspect you've got the right idea.  It looks like the \Device\Harddisk0\Partition1\index file is a manifest of what is installed on the HDD at the factory.  There's also an ASCII format hash in the actual file which I didn't include in my 'file list' post.  I suspect it's part of the quality control system - a list (& hash) of what was actually written, for transmission to the QA server.  I've had feedback that this file no longer exists after updates, so it's probably cleaned up as garbage.

(But it's presence sure saved me a lot of typing )
