Advantages: Lots of space for all your gaming needs. Disadvantages: Price, Dust, Missing GB
My personal experience with the Xbox 360 harddrive has been fairly positive. The ability to store music, films, videos and of course games saves is one that no Xbox gamer should be without. 120 GB of memory is more than enough for the average gamer. The harddrive is well designed to blend with the console perfectly. It is small and easy to store.
However the price is pretty heavy compared to the cheaper 20GB versions. A problem with the memory is the fact that the harddrive does not actually have 120GB, obviously it wouldn't be exactly due to the need for the running files but several GB are actually missing. Regular cleaning is advised as dust tends to collect on the harddrive but a sharp blow into the docking port is sufficient to clear this.
All in all this product is an incredibly useful addition to any Xbox 360 gamers ...

Advantages: good hard drive which looks nice and can store whatever you want! Disadvantages: quite expensive - but you can still do alot with it!
bulky and can store up to 20GB worth of whatever you want to put on there be it films, music, games, etc. It does however slot very nicely on the top of the console and once on it looks like it should be there and is just another part of the console. It is also very easy to remove and put back on and can therefore be easily taken round a mate's house in order to show him your game saves or something like that.
So, what can be put on there:
When you purchase this harddrive it comes with a n xbox live arcade game already stored on there, it is Hexic HD - a cool little puzzle game which is always worth a play if you get a bit bored. But if you delete it there is no way of getting it back at the moment - as I accidentally deleted it!
You can store, quite obviously, up to 20Gb worth of stuff. The most important will probably be your game ...
