The Xbox 360 Memory Unit serves as a useful tool for taking your game saves and Gamercard with you wherever you go. The small memory card fits into one of the slots in front of the Xbox 360 console, and it is then registered as a new storage device immediately. Any game saves can then be automatically saved to your Memory Unit. If you have files that you wish to move onto your Unit then it is very simple and quick to do so. The file you wish to add to your Memory Unit simply has to be moved from the Hard Drive via the Memory menu on the Xbox 360 Dashboard, a process that is very easy indeed. From there it can be moved back to your own console whenever you wish it to be.
Whilst this is handy for moving your files around, it definately isn't recommended as a permanent storage solution, simply because of the small size. Notably, the 64MB Unit actually on has 51MB of free space due to the system items that are already saved on the Unit and can't be deleted. Anyone that is hoping to download games, extra content, videos or movies from the marketplace would do much better to purchase a Hard Drive instead.
As for the pricing of the product, it is quite overpriced as you can purchase a Memory Unit with 512MB for only a few more pounds, which would probably be much better for people . For people which want a permanent storage solution, and with a little extra money, you will also be able to get a pre-owned Hard Drive with 12GB of storage for about £50 or less and those with even more to spend could get 120GB hard drives for around £100. I therefore wouldn't recommened that you buy this specific storage device, unless you are on a budget, or if you just want a device to transport gamesaves.
Advantages: good for beginers Disadvantages: very little storage space
My experience with the Xbox 360 64MB storage device is that it is fine for storing say 10 games but once you are passed that it becomes a matter of either buying another or just buying a hard drive. I would recommend this to a first time buyer of an Xbox 360 as when u have just bought one it generally would come with a game or games. So if you would rather just play through those games I would advise the 64MB storage device as it's cheaper than cashing ... ...The disadvantages of these though are if you buy an Xbox live gold subscription you won't be able to download nearly enough which would mean that the money you spent on the 64MB storage device would have been wasted so in this case the storage device is almost pointless. So in conclusion I would say that this is a good purchase for beginner Xbox gamers but not so good for experienced gamers. ...
