Hi Basq - says they do not deliver electronics out side of the UK? Is this correct ?

while its a great price for a 360, you'd regret not buying it with a 250gb HDD if you do even moderate gaming. ive a 120gb version and its full. the 250gb version is only around €30 and worth the price.

I went as far as Paypal checkout and seemed to be fine..

.. I ordered an NC10 from them a couple of years back no problem.

True.. it'll still work out cheaper than buying it here though.

Most retailers seem to be selling it for €199.

Although when I bought my NC10 off them, it was shipped from a company in the UK.

Just wondering what you fill it with? I have a 250gb and was shocked to find out after I bought it that I can't store music or movies from my laptop on it. Do you have a workaround?

IndieComa · 08-05-2011 11:00pm

I never filled mine, especially with external usb

I put the hdd from my old xbox into it and it worked fine.
Not sure about sticking any old hard drive in it.

The movie service on it is pretty crap to be truthful with the selection of films being extremely bad

How did you manage to use your old xbox drive? Was your old xbox a slim model too or did you have to do some modifications?

the groutch · 09-05-2011 12:58pm

good price for a 4gb, but I'd still be more inclined to get a 250gb as with a 4gb you'll need to buy some sort of additional memory anyway

eg. amazon are doing the 250gb with 1 game/12 months xbl for €215 delivered

You can use the old xbox hard drives, there's tutorials on YouTube about it, it's handy enough to do
