Any hints on a cheaper or larger HDD?

My 20GB is getting pretty full of patches and DLC, and the 120gb is still  too pricey.

 



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

60 gig FTW!

 

Its $100 and includes 3 months of Live and something else.



$100 for ~40 extra GB isn't a deal. 60gb doesn't even come with the transfer cable.

Amazon has the 120GB on sale with transfer cable for $120. I so wish it was cheaper.

It is a pretty ridiculous price. At this point, a 120GB 2.5" HDD is what, $50? They are more than doubling the cost on the thing. There's really no good excuse for that.



You do not have the right to never be offended.

I'm running out of room on my 120G so I hope they bring out 250G soon!



 

I was also thinking the same thing, especially with the new on demand system, I want to be able to install more than one game at a time on my HDD



I have a 120gb that I paid $30 for. Well, I bought a broken iPod for $30, fixed it and traded the guy for it.

Seriously, you could wait for a larger capacity drive or just buy it now and forget it. In the end, you get the space you need and can sell your 20gb for $30, making the 120gb drive just $90.

However, I am waiting for the next one so I can the Scorpio SATA drive and flash it.



Damn those hard drives are expensive. The least they could do is give us some lube.



I know you can mod Western Digital laptop drives to use for 360. But I don't know about that lol...
