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 ...
This was bought to replace my old freecom 40gbdrive. Once when using it on a desktops front usb port, i knocked it with my knee and it snapped the connector.
Due to this I thought I would go for a toughdrive and I have not been dissapointed. I use it weekly and keep it loose in my laptop bag with no real concern for its safety. No chance of the connector breaking here as its a sealed floppy rubbery affair! also there is a magnet on the clip so it wont become loose wherever you keep it.
I have used it on several pc's, laptops and servers without any issue. I often use it for my work on a server that will only have one or two USB ports and neither are in a good postion so I have to leave the drive hanging from the USB port and still no issues.
Never needed to use supplied software. ...
