Convert your Xbox into a NAS

Tom’s Networking has a very informative 3-part guide on how to transform your Xbox Sr. into a network-attached storage device (NAS) for your home network. This is an excellent idea for those that have upgraded to the Xbox 360 and would like to increase the digital storage capability on their home network without upgrading their main computer or buying a second one. Granted, the process involves soldering a chip onto your xbox’s motherboard and dropping in a new hard drive, so it’s not for the faint of heart. But at least you won’t be monkeying with your main PC and as for gaming, are you really going to go back to those Xbox games now that you have a 360?
