5 out of 5 eggs Does exactly what I needed 10/19/2012

This review is from: AGPtek 250GB HDD Internal Hard Drive Disk for XBox 360 Slim XBOX 360 E

Pros:

For those of you that just bought an Xbox 360 slim 4gb model, such as myself, and need the extra internal storage (which you will inevitably need as you buy/download more games) this is a rather cheap option that does exactly what any other brand will.

5400 rpm drive - albeit rather slow nowadays, works perfectly for the Xbox 360 (quite quickly as well)
250 gb (well, sort of) - plenty of storage for movies & games

The best feature about internal storage in general is the ability to install your game discs to the hard drive so it will run off that instead, the benefit of this is that it does not run the disc drive, so it will have a longer life span, plus less noise, and most importantly, less heat. (Please be aware that this does not mean you can play without the game disc, you will still need it to authorize yourself as the owner)

Cons:

Although not much of a con as it should be expected: this hard drive IS 250 gb yes, but the Xbox will only read about 228 due to loading system files for the console to read it.

Overall Review:

A cheaper alternative to the original that does the exact same thing? Definitely a great product in my book.
