    If you do that your hard disk will be usable by the console.

    You will have all wins in history. The 7 GB partition is not only for backwards compatibility

    If you want more space then you need to change hard drive, by buying the (expensive) disk Official MS .. either tweak a bit

    I could delete that partition would be ideal for me.
    Are you sure that the partition 6 gigas used for anything other than the emulator for xbox 1. I understood that it was partition 1 which was used to profile and all that goes with it.
    For info, I already tried to delete the files in the partition 2, but no gain of space and especially the hard drive is still running on the box once these files deleted.

    The Xbox 360 system reserves approximately 6 GB of space for the following:

    • Approximately 4 GB is reserved for game title caching and for other hard drive-specific game elements for games that support the use of the Xbox Hard Drive.
    • Approximately 2 GB is reserved for use by the Xbox 360 backwards-compatibility software that allows you to play older Xbox titles on the Xbox 360 console.
