Misleading Storage Capacity
PROS:
- Owning a HDD allows you to download patches from Xbox Live to play original xboox games.
- Download game demos from Xbox Live Marketplace
- More storage than a memory card
CONS
- 20 GB* is actually 13GB. For some reason, MS has 7 GBs reserved on the HDD.
- 13 GB isnt very much when you consider game demos average about .5 GB to 1GB in size. If you're going to be downloading patches and add-ons for your games, as well as demos, that 13GB of storage is going to fill up sooner than you think.
Must-Have for XBox 360 Systems
If you've got a base XBox 360 core unit, you really need to find yourself a hard drive. The hard drive lets you save music, store games, download content, and even play old XBox games.
In the original XBox, every XBox unit had a built in hard drive. This was inconvenient for several reasons. First, there were people who never used it, but who had to pay for it anyway. Next, if your XBox died, it was a royal pain because the hard drive wasn't removable.
You could try to move items off your hard drive onto memory units, but many save games were simply too large to fit on a memory unit.
The XBox 360 has a great improvement - you can buy the XBox 360 with or without the hard drive. You can even buy the hard drive separate if you want to upgrade your XBox 360 later on. If your hard drive fries, you don't have to get an entire new XBox 360, you just buy a new hard drive. If your XBox 360 fries, you don't lose your information, you simply pop out the hard drive and plug it into a new XBox 360 unit.
The XBox 360 hard drive lets you download content from XBox Live onto it - this can include new maps for games, new levels, even songs and videos. You can store your own CDs on the unit, which is fantastic for playing your own soundtracks during games.
It even comes with a free copy of Hexic HD - a tetris-like game that is really quite addictive. You find it under the 'Xbox Live Arcade' menu choice. You don't need XBox Live to play it - it's fully playable when you are off line.
This really is a must-have for any XBox 360 gamer - highly recommended!
way too expensive
This thing works fine, is small, convenient, detachable. There are 3 problems I have:
1) too little memory and the 360 OS/dashboard takes up a ton of space.
2) overpriced for the amount of storage you get. you can find a 250GB+ external USB hard drive for this price or less. the price simply doesn't make sense.
3) I would have appreciated a USB port (as on an external USB hard drive) so I could hook it up to my PC to transfer files.
Price: $95.99
