Well from what i remember they are just laptop hard drives in a custom enclosure with a custom file system, so if you open the enclosure and remove the drive and format it to NTFS it should work fine.. Not that you get any extra benefits from a normal HDD..

Arch Linux on Samsung 840 EVO 120GB: Startup finished in 1.334s (kernel) + 224ms (userspace) = 1.559s | U mad windoze..?

Yeah like lutzee said, because I know you can stick regular HDD in 360s as well

Yes its possible, you just plug it in, nothing else to it really. If you want to continue to use the custom file system there are applications for that.

It will be compatible. Just format it to NTFS and your good to go.
