I usualy use Weastern Digital hdds and have had no problems with them. Check out www.pricewatch.com they have some killer deals. Before you buy your hdd, take a look at the harddrive list and make sure its lockable --> http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/modules.php?name=Xbox_HardDrives . Since its a 1.6 i think you'll need to use xboxhdm 1.9 tutorial--> http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-tutorials-153.html . Theres a way to check your xbox version somewhere in the settings menu of xbmc.

If your going to buy a new one, I'd look at 300gig hdds. You wont end up paying too much for em and its nice to have the extra space. I have a box sitting at my house right now with a maxtor 300gig model #: 6L300R0 that works pretty good and runs super quiet.

You just have to format it in your dashboard. Make a F drive, and a G drive.
