X-Box 360 Hard Drive memory usage

Post » Fri Oct 30, 2009 8:05 am

I'm trying to figure out how much memory usage the 360 takes to store and run all the game and plug ins... and I'm finding different numbers online. So, is there anyone who can verify these numbers for me.

Oblivion main game: 6 GB (this one's a guess based on my package)
Shivering Isles: 944 MB
Knights of the Nine: 155 MB

Total primary game: 7.099 GB

Plug-ins
Fighter's Stronghold: 10.3 MB
Vile Lair: 6.5 MB
Thieve's Den: 4.5 MB
Wizard's Tower: 17.6 MB
Horse Armor: 6.2 MB
Mehrune's Razor: 2.8 MB
Orrery: 18 MB
Spell Tomes: 2.4 MB

Total for plug-ins: 68.3 MB


Total game with all plug-ins: 7.1673 GB


So, I'm wondering how accurate my numbers are, so I can figure out total memory usage. On xbox live there's also 6.908 MB of console media available, and I'm wondering how much save data uses. Is there an overall save amount, or does it multiply by how many save files?



Thank you for assistance, I've been trying to do this math for awhile now, and I'm hoping for accurate numbers before I upload everything to my console. I have an old used 20 GB that I know is enough for the job, but I'd like to be accurate.

Each save file takes up more space, the amount grows the longer you play. On the PC version my saves start at just under a meg and grow by roughly 100KB per hour of play time. your mileage may vary though since I am running a few mods.

On the PC Oblivion, SI and KOTN works out at around 5.45GB. KOTN and SI are both within 10MB of your figures

Hmm. My setup for know should function fine for what I currently have... Game + GOTY upgrades, but methinks I'll wait for a better drive before I get more plug-ins.
