Engadget gets to peek at the Xbox 360 HD-DVD drive

Looks
like the folks at Engadget are in attendance at the E3. they were able to snag
some rough shots of the HD-DVD drive that is designed for the Xbox 360. They
leave us with about as many questions as answers though. They have more
information and a few more pictures you can check out by following this link.



Steel yourself
for a shock, but the HD DVD drive was actually looking like it was just
going to be a regular 5.25-inch HD DVD drive slapped in a 360-styled
external enclosure. Now that you've collected yourself after that bit of
hysteria, we can tell you the (non-functional) drive itself had only a
power plug (which looked to be of the variety that runs to the wall, no
adapter required), a mini USB host port for connecting to the 360, two
full USB ports for the device to otherwise act as a USB hub, and a spot
for your 360 WiFi adapter to latch on the back since it could possibly be
displaced by the use of the rear USB port to get this thing running on the
console.
