Bullshit. I have countless friends who have done it, and none of them have been banned as of yet. That HDD is the EXACT SAME ONE they use on their conveyor belts. There is no way to tell unless they pick it up and see that the "Microsoft" sticker has been removed.

There have been countless people that have fried something due to the build up of static electricity...because they did not know how to ground themselves properly before handling the hardware. |
As stated before, in the edit and in the thread, you can still get a pre-made one for cheap. It is physically impossible for the HDD to short-circuit the console anyway... only fry the HDD if you maybe yank out the cables...
