Just want to add a tip to get the most space

go to the system blade and then go to your hard drive. You are probably going to find a lot of things that have a "!" for the picture. These things are incomplete and you cant see them from ant other area. I cleared over 5 gig's :)

I have 11 gb left on mine. I really don't understand how people take up so much room on their hard drive. I delete a demo after I am done with it, what is the point in keeping the demo?

Music, movies, & pictures can also take up lots of space

They do, but if you have a computer (which you obviously do because you are on this posting board) you can just stream all of that off of your computer and therefore save the space on your 360 hard drive. At least that is what I do.

encodi, MS now makes a 120 gig HD that you can find just about everywhere. It's pricey though, it costs $180.

I have 5GB of videos on my Harddrive, I bought them so I don't want to delete them. :lol:

I usually delete the demoes for games I don't like or when I finish them, I keep the demoes for games I like or demoes I haven't completed yet.

I think there is sample music and video, maybe pictures. Maybe some demos that you don't know about... I had like 3 demos that I never downloaded on my harddrive the other day, I don't know when or how they got on there. I remember hearing there's like 3gb of stuff you don't need when you buy a 360.

but some people prefer to not bother with having both machines on to stream. its more convienent if its directly stored on the harddrive;)

This is true, however I never turn my computer off and so it is easier for me to just stream and much cheaper.
