How Many Games...
« on: June 09, 2011, 06:30:00 PM »

Just curious how many games you all have loaded on your modded xboxes.  I'm always afraid of loading too many for fear of fragmentation and slowing the hard drive down smile.gif

I have a 160GB HDD as well and about 130GB of games if I added right.  So I shouldnt have to worry about any lag with that may loaded on the HDD?

I cant see how the files would get so fragmented that it would cause issues..
so i wouldnt worry about it personally.
Never noticed any issues with my boxes...

One thing I have noticed switching from a 200GB hard drive to a 500GB hard drive is the load times. It is actually a little bit slower, but most people won't notice. Right now I have about 100 games on my 500 GB hard, but its only half full

303 games installed in 1tb 7200rpm hd sata + sata to ide converter....i notice a small speed difference in loading games in comparison with  my old 160gb 7200rpm ide  hdd but but is still much more faster than loading games from dvd and there's no problems in gameplay.

I've just counted, I have 104 games installed, including ports (DoomX, Odamex, XDuke, XShadow , etc) and commercial games. This doesn't include emulators, of course, as they are in a different directory (I use Evo-X).

I *love* how the XBox 1 can play anything from hard drive, and I'm very grateful for the people who put so much time and effort into making it all possible. Without their skill, intelligence, and dedication, the XBox would still have so many great commercial games of course, but would still be far less brilliant as it is now, as there'd be no homebrew, no way to run things from the hard drive, and no game ports.

So many, many thanks to everyone concerned!
