Jump to unread Post a CommentIts better to go with the bundle for extra games - You can try out the tesco deal which has 3 games for £269
Skyrim + Halo Combat: -£52 (CEX)
Xbox Live Gold: -£30 (plus 600 points renewal promotion), which I would have paid anyaways
Xbox 4GB cost: £90 (I put my old 120GB hard drive into it)
Pitty I didn't get the 250GB when there was a glitch on the Amazon price.
This deal is OK I guess for the standalone console.
ebay will take 10% of the price off zavii i think so then you'll get 40% of that.

The basic answer is: no you don't need a hard drive that big.
However, if you plan to go on xbox live and download demos, or rent/buy films, then a 250gb hard drive is a good idea. There is also an option to install disc based games that you have bought onto the hard drive, which improves loading performance and wear and tear on the dvd drive.
Some games I believe require a mandatory install (halo reach ?), Skyrim installs certain graphical textures onto the hard drive for example.

Yep, you can share Windows media content between a Windows PC and an xbox 360. You can also just put your films & music on an external hard drive and then connect that to the 360 and copy it across that way.
The main use for the hard drive (at least for me) is for game installations. You can install games on to the hard drive to avoid the noise from the DVD drive while playing, and also the games load faster (plus you are saving life on the laser).
But for that, just get the 4GB console, and get a 20GB hard drive from eBay for around £18. 20GB should be enough to install around 3 games.

Do you just connect a spare drive via USB or does it have to be installed in the Xbox?

On eBay the 20GB drives come with the Xbox casing (just like the original ones). So you just slot it into the console (easy and does not affect warranty).
Alternatively, you can buy any WD Scorpio Series 2.5 hard drive (has to be either 20gb, 60gb, 120gb etc ie. cannot be a size that is not produced by Microsoft), and then hack the firmware so it works with the Xbox. You can then buy a case for £2 and put the drive inside, and then put the whole thing into the Xbox just like with a original hard drive.
The connection is through SATA direct on the back of the slim console.
glad i bought my matt black 250gb a couple weeks ago cost me £80 odds time i sold the amazon bundle that come with it,
