Recently been looking to upgrade my 20gb hard drive for my 360. Was looking to go around the 120gb range but no matter how much I search online all I can find are those cheap genetic hard drives and none of the office xbox ones. Anybody know a good place to get one at a reasonable price? @_@ Desperate now.

    Funny, I just happened to see this on cheapassgamer:

    Xbox 360 250 GB hard drive for $69.99

    I happened to snag one from woot.com a few weeks ago for $50, which was nice.

    Same question re: 360 "s" hard drive. I found a stupid deal on a 4gb, and am using usb drives for the time being, but I'm looking to snag a 250gb model if I can find a deal.

    As an alternative to the MS version, I'm more than willing to consider a home made one, but I can't seem to find ones where I am confident that it is the 360 "s" version. Anyone able to suggest somewhere that didn't send them a original 360 version?

    Side note, does anyone know the kosherness of these homemade drives? Particularly for the 's'?


    I want to grab one of the super-cheap 4GBs on sale everywhere, but that's a little counterproductive if I then have to go and spend more money than I paid for the console itself to get a HDD for it.


    Funny enough, I logged on just to ask this question. Nice to see there was already a related thread I could piggyback on.

    It's nice and easy to make your own, plenty of cheap drives out there if you're willing to take the time and effort to do it. They're just as genuine (to the 360) as an official microsoft one, they can't be detected and (I imagine) MS wouldn't go out of their way to detect them anyway.
