simply plan on backing up games on pc and loading to console
this is not possible at all, with the NXE update coming out on Nov 19th you can copy the games to HDD (legally) however you must have a 120GB HDD and you must also keep the game inside the console while playing that particular game (for verification purposes)

I have NXE running on 2 xbox360's and both run from 20GB harddisks. I just have less room for games (2 or 3 games fit on it). But I'm sure that 20GB will work for playing games from the harddisk. It's recommended to have a bigger harddrive (60GB or 120GB) so you wouldn't have to delete as many games from the harddrive in order to play another game from the harddrive. And still have room for downloaded content.
You can only play games of the haddrive from the originated xbox360(A) with the game disc in the dvdplayer of your xbox360(A).
So placing the haddrive on another xbox360(B) and play of the haddrive is not possible.
You then need to delete the game from the haddrive and re-backup the game to the haddrive in onder to play on the other xbox360(B) wtih ofcourse the game disc in the dvdplayer.
Playing games from the harddrive has advantages.
Older xbox360's dvdplayer make more noise while playing games then newer consoles but still make noise.
The xbox360's harddrive hardly makes any noise.
Loading time from the dvd player are slower then loading from the harddrive, so you can jump right into action (sort of).
But if this is not a problem to you then you can just be happy with a memorycard and play games from the dvdplayer of the xbox360. Lets say an xbox360 core system would do.
