Cheap Xbox hard drive, for the WIN! Nov 29, 2010
By J. Hancock
We got our hard drive and installed it on the XBOX 360 with out any issues. Since this XBOX had no saved games on it, we did not have to do a data transfer. Easy peasey. If you have had your XBOX for a while, you will likely wand to pick up the data transfer cable; Other than that, it is a tool-less install. This drive has been running in for several months now and has not had issues.

Excellent value! Jan 06, 2012
By Zenagin
I ordered this product in October 2011 to replace my 120GB MS Hard Drive and have been using it ever since. I was slightly skeptical ordering a none MS product - and one that had so few reviews at the time as well! But of the few things that were written about it by consumers, most of that was positive. For the rather substantial price savings, I had to try. Besides, Amazon has great return policies!
But have I had to return it? Heck no! I transferred all transferable data (game saves and tons of XBLA games) to the new drive from my old one and then installed around 10 XBOX 360 games onto it and still had around 83GB available. I play almost every day on my XBOX 360 and have really been putting this drive through the paces by playing lots of MW3 multiplayer and lots of Skyrim! I've also downloaded tons of game trailer videos and even an 8GB HD movie rental. This generic 250GB Hard Drive for the XBOX 360 is holding up without batting an eye! In fact, if I hadn't seen a reminder to do a review on this product, I would've forgotten that I even have it. It has been that reliable since installing it.
If you have been on the fence or are skeptical about buying a none MS product for such a serious application like I was, all I can tell you is that I am totally glad I took the plunge and got this and would do it again!
Hope this helps!
NOTE: I just realized that when I ordered this product, it was around 40 bucks lower in price. Try to wait a bit to see if the price drops if you can. Otherwise, even at this price, it is a solid product!

Generic HDD FTW!!!! Jul 09, 2011
By Jordan S Johnson
Desperately needed a new, larger hard drive for my original Xbox 360, but did not quite have the funds for the Microsoft Brand versions. Took a gamble on the cheap generic 'made in China' version, and still working like a dream 2 weeks in! Always scary buying 3rd party peripherals, there's always a higher chance of defective or straight up broken products, but I am very pleased with this purchase!

Finally, Some Breathing Room Nov 19, 2011
By Robert Moses
I was a bit skeptical about this purchase as some reviewers said this wasn't from Microsoft but it turned out fine.
I have the original Xbox 360 that came with the 20 gig hard drive. It had been driving me crazy as I had to keep deleting demos and other files to keep making space for new demos and live games. I also wanted to install all my xbox games onto the hard drive so I don't have to hear the loud noise of the DVD player as well as fast access to the game. Finally the problem has been solved with this hard drive.
It was a simple installation. I just took the old 20 gig hard drive out and put this one in. Worked immediately. I had some saved game data on my old drive but didn't want to spend money on a transfer cable so I used a friends USB stick to transfer my saved games to the new drive (I used an 8gb stick). I then installed my most played xbox games onto the new hard drive and now I can play games without hearing the buzzing and whirling of the dvd drive. I can also freely download demos and live games without worrying about space.
I should also mention that you can redownload all of your purchased xbox live games again to your new hard drive so you can skip the transfer cable if you don't mind taking the time to search and download them again. (Just remember to write down the games you purchased from your old drive)
I highly recommend this drive if you need more space for your 360.
