Nothing too exciting...

[jhoff80]

Yeah, its all demos and videos that you can download for free anyway, what's the point?

They're putting free shit on it to help justify the $180 dollar tag.
I am appalled at the fact that they would even consider charging that much. I would much, MUCH rather put that towards a Wii.
I really hope nobody plans on getting one of these. Shove it back in MS's face.

You mean it doesn't cost 180$ to put that shiny case around the HDD?

wow omg thats just so amasing its the same content thats on my 20 giger that oh i deleted other then hexec hd lol. the price is insane relly 180 big ones for a 120 gig hd god what do they run now 40 bucks new for a pc maybe less i haent checked latly. for a 180 big ones it should be at least a 500gb drive. thers a brite side to this thow couse you all knoe people will buy them anyways. the 20 gigs will be going dirt cheap used you can just pick up 2 or 3 of them for less then what ms whants for the 120 and have plenty of space lol. or you cab use the hack to use a old pc hardrive probly pick up whatever model they hack for 20 or 30 bucks. im no math guy but thats like 4 times what a sata drive cost to build and sell.

You need a real working 120Gb M$ HDD to make the hddss.bin from that you can put on a Western Digital BEV 2.5", you can't make one up from scratch.

Has anyone got any info from M$ if they're going to "buy back" the older 20Gb HDD's when you want to get a bigger HDD?

[bloodyorgasm555]

we could use the hack that was discovered awhile back with the 20 gig. you use your own hard drive instead of buying one.(even though you are limited to a certain model) i mean that would be alot cheaper.
i think thats what luther349 was saying

[ConteZero76]

Maybe I should remember you that it's quite possible that Microsoft add an HDD check on Live!, banning the ones with cloned disks.
Just to know.

120gb is nice to have especialy if u download movie content and hopefully iptv with the dvr service would be great exept for the service fee

yea a 120gb is nice but im talking the inflated cost of the thing. and it seems to be something ms is doing often with memery. thats why they dont whant 3rd party memery couse people can make drives and memery cards far far cheaper then a ms branded one. as i said befor iptv and movie downloads are just fine on a 20gb model.

You still need an original 120Gb Microsoft Xbox 360 HDD to take the hddss.bin from. You can't use the one from your 20Gb, because that's for a 20Gb model only (you can only make a Xbox 360 compatible 20Gb HDD with that). You can't just buy a new WD drive either, since you have no hddss.bin to put in it.

Did you even read my comment?


EDIT: 20Gb is fine... untill you run out of free space.

i will be buying one, cloning it and maybe doing a little damage to the pins and getting a refund.. Since the hdd will be dead, the serial wont be used thus making me safe from any possible HD checks in the future.

I suggest everyone do this, let ms have a boatload of $180 HDD's see how they like that!
