While the Xbox 360 does come with a 20GB hard drive, users aren't able to fully use every offered MB. They are in fact only able to use two third of the full disksize.
So where did the other 6-7GB go to? Is Bill storing his secrets on your Xbox 360? I certainly hope so, but that's not quite what's filling it. The lost diskspace is used for backwards compatibility with the older Xbox 1 games. The reason why they are doing this is because they need to emulate the Nvidia GPU they used in the Xbox 1 while they now use ATI GPU's. Nvidia didn't license the transistion, so Microsoft needs to emulate all this.
An other disk eating monster is the Xbox 360 Live options and MS is obviously thinking about the future. Calculating Virtual Memory into the entire picture makes it complete.
odium is correct

its like saying your 100gb C: drive isnt 100gb cause 2 gigs are being used for the windows install * :icon33: *
