FYI: I recently saw some Microsoft 120GB hard drives on clearance at K-Mart for $75.

Damn, I wish I had time to run to K-Mart today. Sucks when you install Mass Effect to your Hard Drive, and then have to delete it to even DL & play demos.... :(

That's why I did the hack. Only when my HDD gets to about 50gb do I start to 'worry' about space.

I just don't think I have the time and tech savvy for that.

Maybe if I pay someone to do it... ;) :P

Here's hoping someone grabs the 250GB info right away then I can upgrade my 120GB. I only have 10GB left now. :D

Keep us up to date if/when you do this. I want to buy an off the shelf 250GB HDD and upgrade my 60GB.

Will definitely do! I'm really running out of space.

I wonder if this affects everyone that 'upgraded' for cheap in this thread?

Some people are interpreting this as just the memory cards. But you never know with 'big brother'.

Yeah, I saw that. Would be interesting to see what comes out during the Beta. I'm sure we'll hear about it soon enough.

I hope my 120GB from overseas, which really isn't "official" doesn't become worthless.

Good luck for those who don't have the official HDD. I wish I had a spare one to test it out for everyone when I (hopfully) get in the beta...

Yeah, I read this too. Like I said elsewhere, if I can no longer use my 'upgraded' drive, I'm officially done with the 360.

I have a spare one that I can use. But I'm sure a lot of people will be testing it out too.

Why, oh why does Bill Gates insist upon purchasing his hard drives from LuthorCorp? :unsure: What does Lex have on him?

So far so good. People with self upgraded HDDs with the new update have no issues.
