Upgrade How Much

To BB's Post:

The HDD's in 360 are nothing more than a laptop 2.5" HDD in a special casing though I am not sure if the interface is better or on the same level as SATA.

PS3's is a SEAGATE 40, 60 or 80GB Momentus 5,400rpm SATA 2.5" HDD and that can be taken out and upgraded to 500GB and it will not void your warranty. Microsoft charge £120-£130 for there 120GB HDD.

For that price at Overclockers.co.uk you can get a SEAGATE Momentus 200GB 7,200rpm 2.5" SATA HDD for £129 with Del.

The plastic covers are really expensive.

Apparently the little plastic shell that M$ puts the sata drives into are really expensive. As a 20GB sata drive only runs $30-$40, the other $60 must be for that plastic shell and the packaging.

M$ needs to take a cue from sony, and let you use your own HDs if you want to upgrade.

60 GB...

I remember when 60GB was a big hard drive... way back in 2001. In fact, it was an IBM Deathstar, which never actually gave up the ghost before it was replaced. Are these XBox 360 drives special or something? Because it almost seems they cost so much because a 20GB or 60GB hard drive is a rare commodity these days.

Lots of suckers in this world

No (Ring of) Death Box for me the have to pay to play. Screw MS. My PC and PS3 are free to play online and I will keep it that way. There was only one game the 360 had I wanted and it is coming to the PC, (Mass Effect) Thank EA Games since obviously Bioware was a bitch for MS you taking them over changed that.
Blizzard learned that when they tried to abandon the PC market with Ghost. The backlash was immense.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
