    Yes, but you might have to trasfer your stuff over first with the trasfer cable they give you, it's really easy.

    Yup, I pretty much had my 20gb one full, it took about 40 mins to transfer over though, works perfect now too, just loaded COD4 on it :D All you account avatar saves, everything it keeps :D

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,026 ✭✭✭docdolittle


    I didn't think this many people would want one... :P Suppose €90 off is a good offer :D :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 767 ✭✭✭claiva


    There are none in grafton street, the till op was amazed at the price when I asked if he had any, he didn't know about the deal. He rang Henry street for me and the guy there told him they had a few but all were being held for staff. I went down anyway on the off chance and the guy in Henry street gave me the one that was being held for him !!!!!
    I couldn't believe it !!!!
    Fair play to him. Great to see there are still a few sound people left in the country !!!!
    Amazing bargain....thanks for the heads up !!!!!
    :D:D:D

    Probably here http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.21431, but it's second hand. Failing that, just look for a deal or ebay :p

    Edit: actually, it say's thats a fake one :( dam DE!

    to transfer data, do you need a second 360 or how does that work?

    nope, they give you a transfer cable with the Hard drive. I think you just hook the HD to the cable and into the xbox and way you go..

    Was just in Grafton Street at lunch and there was 3 left, grabbed myself one and now there's 2. Nice one OP, deal made all the sweeter as I had a HMV gift card with a bit of credit left burning a hole in my wallet so it only cost me €20.

    RESULT :D

    Called down to henry st at 12.45 after reading Grafton st was sold out and there were none on the shopfloor so I queued up and spied at least two behind the counter. Staff member told me they were sold out and when I enquired about the ones I could see he said they were held for staff. I asked for the manager and she came over, messed about on the computer and went upstairs and after waiting 5 mins the guy behind the counter just scanned it and asked for payment. I felt a little bit bad but maybe they should have put it out of eye sight!
