Will pay to build: Xbox 360 Slim Laptop

Post by OopsHeadshot » Mon Jul 05, 2010 9:36 pm

I am looking for an Xbox 360 Laptop that runs off of the Xbox 360 Slim hard drive. I am hoping that the hard drive from the Xbox 360 Slim can taken in and out. Also it should have built-in wifi. Please include an Xbox Live Vision camera. The monitor should be 17 inches and should have built-in audio.

Is it possible to play the Xbox Laptop when it isn't plugged in?

The design should be be sleek and nice. It should be themed like the Xbox 360 Slim.

Email me at "OopsHeadshot@me.com" if interested. Once I find someone that can do it, I'll talk about price. You won't be disappointed with the price.

You should find someone to do the commission. And no one's going to use a Slim until Benheck most likely makes one. I don't think anyone would risk the new one.

Where can I find someone to commission? I would be fine with a normal xbox one but I just transferred all my files from my old Xbox to my new Slim and I want to be able to interchange the hard drive between the console and the laptop. I need someone willing to take that risk.

I'm pretty sure Ben made one with changeable harddrives. You'd just have to keep the harddrive connector shown. Just look around the Xbox 360 section and find someone who is willing to make you one. Just know they are not cheap. $1000+.

My budget is higher than that so I'm not worried. Thanks again.

Actually, I think Microsoft put a new connector on the new slim hard drives, so the only way to transfer files is the file transfer kit (can't think of name).
Double checking now, will edit with response.

Edit: A quick google run reveals they're not physically compatible, but doesn't say anthing about the actual connector being different.

Oh and batteries? People have looked into it but it will be either really heavy, expensive, or both.

Edit 2: AHA!

The support representative didn’t necessarily approve of it, BUT, it’s possible. He suggested to just wait for Microsoft to announce an official hard drive to avoid breaking the warranty.

I did transfer the content with the transfer cable. I just need to be able to take the hard drive from my 360 slim and be able to put it into the 360 laptop.

I think I found I have made a good choice for who I want to build this. zenl0c seems pretty good.

Don't offer to take a commission job with no proof of your work to back it up. It's just wrong.
