How does $29.99 sound for a 20GB hard drive? Not bad, eh?
As you know, the Xbox 360 Arcade bundle is nicely priced, but some of that low price is due to the absence of a hard drive. And not having one means missing out on high-def video downloads and other features. This deal at Xbox.com is a great way to add one on for cheap.
Okay, so it's refurbished, but you can't complain at $29.99. Hell, at this price, they're almost disposable. With this limited time offer, you'll also get three months of Xbox Live Gold service, making the deal even more attractive.

Do you need to recover your gamer tag if you switch between two HDs? If so, fuck that. Not worth it.
@Char Aznable: That is the EXACT same argument that I'm having with myself right now... then again, they're going for about $30-40 on eBay anyway, so even if I don't use it I could just sell it and break even.
The $20 deal is for Xbox 360 CORE owners...their systems came without a hard drive OR memory card.
The $30 deal is for Xbox 360 ARCADE owners...these systems came with memory cards, which would technically be large enough for the NXE.
I bought a new Arcade console immediately after they announced this...got the hard drive w/in a week. Refurbed, but works fine!
Jelous much?
This deal is a joke anyways, right after MS accounced the 60GB model target put all their 20GB hd's on clearance for $20 before MS ever started selling the referbs.
