You need a compatible drive (SATA) and an IDE to SATA bridge that actually works in an Xbox. Lots of them don't.

An Xbox may be picky about having 1TB of space in it. Considering they came with 8GB from the factory. I think you might be able to get 1TB working on an Xbox, but it would be split across a fuck ton of partitions. I think you can have 130GB per partition.

Doesn't VGA to HDMI require this?

A simple VGA to HDMI lead doesn't work AFAIK. :shrug:
