Looks legit to me but I have no idea if that's a competitive price or not.

fergie666 · 2 Feb 2006 at 08:26

looks fine to me

seller has very good feedback

XPE · 2 Feb 2006 at 08:28

Im sorry, just cos its not in stock doesnt mean you go and blow another £30 pounds on one

I'm getting the impression that a hard drive is a fairly essential piece of equipment if you have a 360, is that right? Otherwise you miss out on a lot of functionality like backwards compatibility, game patches and custom soundtracks etc? I think it's a shame they didn't just release one version of the 360, as they did with the first Xbox. As it is there are going to be two tiers of users and I think where consoles are concerned, everyone should get the same experience.

yes I want to dl all the demos which I cant do at the mo

XPE · 2 Feb 2006 at 08:45

also the P&P seems a bit high

Chads · 2 Feb 2006 at 08:48

over £100 seems a ridiculous price to me, but if you have the money, why not.

Psypher5 · 2 Feb 2006 at 09:13

over £100 for twenty gig? What the hell has the world come to?

The_morrell · 2 Feb 2006 at 09:27

too many people have made to much money on 360's and the equipment. If you bought anything off ebay to do with the 360 then consider yourself told off....

Pac3y · 2 Feb 2006 at 09:45

I got one from thebay for £77 inc so I would personaly wait. You shouldn't have to pay over the odds.

Psypher5 · 2 Feb 2006 at 09:46

Thats still a lot for 20gig :/

There are 2 for sale in the members market at £70 + postage.
You'll need 100 posts to get into the members market though.

no you can't. Well you "could" if you could get it to interface physically and also format it in a way that the 360 could read.
So far I don't think anyones been able to do that.

now that would be good say like a 300gb drive for £80 plugged into your 360

(no more shortage)

really makes the 360's hard drive price look way over the top at the price they are selling for

at the price microsoft are selling them i cant believe there not making a good profit on them

The drive is actually using a standard SATA connection (both power and data). However, I think the problem is the formatting of it.
