Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2008-06-18      Okay MS Enough is enough I think this product has been on the market long enough to warrant a price drop, or at least a little third part competition. When I can get the same amount of memory for my PS3 for 60 bucks or less, this just doesn't seem like any kind of value to early 360 adopters. |  | Reviewed on 2008-06-14      Transfering data on your current drive is a breeze There is really nothing much to say about this item. The only real plus besides the obvious amount of space is that the transfering of material from my 20GB drive was so simple. Just hook these units up with the provided cords and pop a cd in...it's that simple. |  | Reviewed on 2008-06-10      Value Aside, It Does the Job and Does it Very Well This replacement drive was extremely easy to install/set up, and it frees up a virtually limitless amount of space to play with. While the 20GB drive was always a little on the puny side, the 120GB seems to be almost overkill. I highly recommend this larger drive for any Xbox Live users who
* Download a lot of "permanent" content such as "Guitar Hero"/"Rock Band" tracks, Xbox Originals games (which are typically about 5 - 8 GB each), etc.
* Rip lots of music on to their Xbox for customized game soundtracks.
* Watch movies/videos on their Xbox, especially in HD format. This could become even more crucial if the reported partnership with Netflix to deliver downloaded content is ever announced.
Copying the contents of your old drive is facilitated via a utilities disc and copy cable, both of which are included with this 120GB drive package. After following a few simple on-screen prompts, it counted down the 1 1/2 hours that it took to copy my almost-full 20GB drive. This step was very easy to complete and I had no trouble with any of my previous-purchased content, games, etc. running on the new drive.
The only downside to the copy process is that it seemed to also "revive" a lot of the promotional and demo content that I'd long ago deleted from my old drive. I'm not sure if the copy process actually restored these files from the original drive or if it is designed to load them from its own source (maybe the utilities disc?), but it was a minor annoyance to have to go back and re-delete all of these unwanted files one by one.
Many of the reviews of the Xbox 360 120GB hard drive touch on the cost. Yes, it's overpriced compared to standard hard disks, but it's also the only such peripheral available for the 360, so the griping is a moot point. Simply put, if you download a lot of Xbox Live content, then someday you'll need more space than the original 20GB drive allows. And there are ample opportunities to offset the cost on the secondary market such as selling your old drive (there's no way for the 360 to handle multiple drives at once anyway, so it's just a doorstop once you install the 120GB) and the copy cable.
Again, if you want to experience the most out of your Xbox Live account, then just bite down on the inflated cost of this peripheral and then enjoy all of that spare room. |  | Reviewed on 2008-06-10      More Space There is a ton of HD videos, demos, games and other content on XBOX Marketplace and this is perfect for storing all your data. There are also rumors that some game will have pre-installs and if that is true you'll need a larger hard drive. |  | Reviewed on 2008-06-01      Xbox 360 120GB Hard Drive If you download a lot and I mean a lot of movies and arcade games, maps etc. you need this. If not it's overkill for the price IMO. |  |
