Offical Xbox 360 Hard Drive (360)

The Xbox 360 hard drive is an absolute must for any gamer who is planning on getting, or already owns, and xbox 360. Microsoft released 2 versions of the 360, the core and the premium. The core has no hard drive and the premium does. I made the mistake of getting a core and had to purchase a hard drive separate after I saw how useless the xbox 360 is without it. -Lets you save games
-Lets you download content from Xbox Live
-Lets you play multiplayer games (most games won't run multiplayer unless you have a gamer profile loaded and that requires a hard drive)
-Lets you play original Xbox games
-Lets you load music on to the 360 for playback in game
-Lets you put a custom background on the Xbox Dashboard (the built in menu)
-Very reliable piece of hardware
-Easy to install -Costs an extra hundred bucks if you were trying to save some cash and got a core version. This thing should be standard on ALL 360s. It is the heart and soul of the Xbox 360. Without it, the 360 is essentially useless. With it, the 360 is an incredible gaming system. So if you have to choose between Premium or Core, spend the extra money and get the Premium, you can always take the hard drive off to see how miserable you would be if you had gotten a core.

Currently the only HDD for the Xbox360. It comes with the Preimum Xbox360 but must be purchased if you want to play Xbox games on your Core Xbox360. It has enough space to store lots of demos you download off Xbox Live, and has much more space that your average 64MB Memory Unit. It eaisally fit on the top (or side if you have your 360 in the horizontal position), it just clips in, and it looks the same as the top of you 360 so it dos'nt look bulky or out of place It says it has 20GB but it only has 12GB , I have no idea where the 8GB could have gone to. Its pretty expensive for only 12GB worth of space, and with the new 160GB HDD coming out id would be better to but the 160GB black one rather than this one. Keep you money and buy the new black 160GB HDD. 12GB's is not woth €80+
