I don't know much about Xbox hard drives, but couldn't those have been tested, formatted and sold?

Not much of a market for 8-10 gb HD's.

Not to mention you'd have to unlock em all. Wouldn't be worth the money.

I wonder if any place would take them for the stuff inside though, such as the magnets.

You don't need to unlock squat; you'd only need to do that if you wanted to use them in other XBOXs, which would need to be relocked to that certain new XBOX. For PC use all you have to do is format :p

Modding XBoxs is a lucrative business.

Imagine if he modded each box for at least 100. 1500 x 100 = 150,000.

:eek:

divded by 5 = 30,000/year. Nice, but not huge.

yea u need a lot more than 1500 xbox mods to buy a house like that.

if you streamline it enough, that could be a side gig. Less than 1 xbox per day average is highly doable.

That seems like more than 1500 HD's. Something about the cuts make me wonder if they finished 1 section, moved the HD's to another section, and continued shooting.
