    is it the new hdd or the old one? the newer one (for the slim xbox) will not auto attach/insert to the old arcade xbox machine. i'll get links now to show the difference

    does it look like this or the new one which is this?

    the first one is the one to go one the old (non-slim) xboxes.

    yep, you bought the wrong one, thats an internal HDD where the old xbox 360s have an external HDD that just simply clips onto the side of the console(or top of console if you have it standing up). Some game stores should still have the old version in stock or get yourself onto ebay, amazon, etc, the usual online retailers.

    second hand harddrives may be a more cost effictive option as well, keep an eye on adverts.ie
