Seagate, manufacturer of the embedded 20GB HDD of the XBox360 will make available HDD upgrades of 40,60 and 80GB .

The 2.5 inches drives will be specialy crafted for silence and use verry little power to reduce temperature emission in the small xbox360 case.

seagate hard disks are well noisy, and slow, they need to be made quieter anyway

(slow except for the 15KRPM SCSI ones that is)

I like Seagate drives. Many manufacturers (even WD) don't make their hdd up to the spec they claim. Seagate always does. An example is security ATA mode doesn't work on a large percentage of drives that say it will, simply because fe people use it, the company doesn't bother to make sure it works right.
