Review on 💽 Enhanced Xbox 360 250 GB Hard Drive by John Arsov

Revainrating 4 out of 5

For those who download junkies

. So you need more storage, so you've come to the right place. With 220GB, you'll have more than enough storage space for games and entertainment. In truth, a 120GB hard drive would be good enough for most people, but considering this Amazon listing is more expensive, you might not even consider this alternative. However, if you're not downloading anything or installing too many games, you're better off saving a buck and buying a 60GB hard drive. I should note that this particular hard drive is not compatible with the new Xbox Slim (glossy black variant). With Microsoft no longer making the older version of the Xbox, hard drives for the older model are now fewer and a bit harder to find. However, if you search, you can most likely find a lot cheaper than what's listed here. This is a bit risky as many of these drives are actually refurbished third party drives and/or do not include a transfer cable. Xbox version. However Amazon has a 320GB hard drive which is cheaper but made by a third party and I'm guessing it doesn't come with a transfer cable which will cost a little over seven bucks but even after factoring that in you have it still going upstairs. So if you don't recommend buying a third-party hard drive and want to save some money, I would recommend this option. Summary: Pros: Putting games on your hard drive makes your Xbox quieter. Enough storage - Includes a data cable making it easy to transfer data from an old hard drive - Reliable, I've had this hard drive for two years with no problems Cons - You pay premium for official Microsoft branding - There are cheaper hard drives that offer more Storage. Most gamers can get away with a 60GB or 120GB hard drive.
