Specific XBOX Features
-----------------------------------------------------------
Dashboard
-----------------------------------------------------------
After becoming familiar with the Xbox GUI (graphical user interface), it is the most user-friendly console GUI ever created. What Microsoft calls the "dashboard", you use it to change various settings, manage your game saves, and to rip songs off of CDs and play them.
Memory:
This is where you can view all your data on the hard drive and memory cards. The first screen tells you the total amount of data, and how much is left. After you make your selection, it will show all your game saves and song tracks sorted alphabetically, and grouped by the game.
Music:
Go here to copy music off your CD collection onto the hard drive. After you rip the songs, you can also manage your playlists and listen to the music too.
Settings:
Change all the main settings for you Xbox here. Clock, language, audio, video, parental control, and the auto-off feature are all available to mess around with. You can also
view the system info here.

Hard Drive
-----------------------------------------------------------
The Xbox is the first game console to ever come with a built in hard drive. This is a great feature that they added, which allows many different possible uses. And unlike the PS2, since every Xbox has the hard drive, every game can utilize it somehow. A great feature built in, is where you can save games on the hard drive, which eliminates the need for a memory card. Load times for games can also be reduced by cacheing data on the hard drive, which is faster than loading data off the actual DVD itself. The hard drive is listed on the dashboard as having 50,000+ blocks. The actual amount of blocks available is a little over 300,000.
