hey i was gonna get the HDD (FFXI).My mom won't let me get it because it's $100.00. So what does the disk drive do and how do you install it? I hope i might be able to convince her with your help.

So far the HDD really does nothing. It only makes loading times faster. You could install games on it and save games on it. But only games that support the HDD will allow you to do that. Older games will not detect the HDD so you will still need a memory card for you to load and save games.

FFXI sucks first of all. first month is free but you still need a credit card. then you have to go thru about 2 hours (no kidding) of updates. as for the HDD the only thing I have found it good for so far is to copy my save files onto. but like mentiuoned above games don;'t detect the HDD unless there compatible so to use the save you would have to copy it back onto your memory card. it does make HDD compatible games such as resident evil outbreak load faster but only if you install it onto the HDD. which takes about 12 minutes... as of right now the HDD is pretty much useless. you can;t save songs to it and there is no browser. best bet is to wait until more HDD compatible games come out. socom 2 is also HDD compatible. although nothing available to download yet... wait for the price to come down and for it to be released w/ a better game or something.
