    Default Xbox HDD's

    Ok my brother has the arcade and now my house mate is selling his 20GB for R300 which sounds fair according to Bid or buy but now my mate got a 250 gig from extreme deal for like R600 albeit took 3 months to get here he says tis a waste to go for the 20GB though

    your thoughts or maybe you know where i can get better prices and not have to wait 3 months

    For Saves you only need a 20gig. 250 will be a waiste unless ur planning on installing al the games, downloading loads of extra stuff and/or Arcade games. I have one of the old 20gigs and I haven't run out of space yet, been jamming on it (the hard drive not the console console has died twice) since 2007.

    Well I had the 20gig but got the 60 gig and having the extra space is nice to have. Especially for installing the games which makes load times a lot better, so it is a personal thing.

    Your housemate's a miser. That 20 GB HDD is worth just about nothing. Hell, I've just bought a new Xbox with a 250 GB HDD, so I'm giving my 120 GB HDD to a friend.

    I used a USB HDD, and moved everything over in two loads. Since they added USB disk support, there's a nifty mass transfer tool in your memory management options.

    Your best bet is to go for the 250 gig from take2 or zaps - its R800 but its totally worth it - I got mine a couple of months ago, took about 3 days to arrive, installation was simple. Cant imagine my xbox without it.

    If you are strapped for cash then you can always have a look at the "General trade section" of the official SA Xbox 360 community forum, I often see HDD offers on there.
