get the the use `` like new '' xbox from Amazon Warehouse for $ 150.00 . after have my xbox for 5 year I finally get the rrod , so rather than send my xbox to Microsoft and shell out $ 100 since it be out of warranty I figure I would just buy one of the newer model . so far I do not regret it it be smaller , sleeker , and a lot quieter . as I mention earlier I buy mine use `` like New '' from Amazon warehouse and save 50 buck . the only notable difference from a brand new console be that the box be different everything in the box however be in it be original packaging , with extra paper wrap around it as to make sure it do not get damage while be ship -lrb- manual be also include -rrb- . I know a lot of people in other review complain about there not be a hard drive or enough memory , however that be not a problem for I . you can use a usb stick to transfer datum from you old xbox to the new one and to store game , DLC , save datum etc. . and the old xbox hard drive be not incompatible -lrb- as many people think -rrb- all you need to do be unscrew the container take the hard drive out and put it in the slot of the new xbox 360 it will fit . do this I be able to get about 56 gig on the new xbox -lrb- include 4 gig + two 16 gb flash drive + my old 20gb xbox hard drive -rrb- which be fine for I since I only have my save , download arcade game , and the occasional demo . if you have a bigger hard drive in you old xbox or have 2 16 gb usb stick -lrb- roughly 30 dollar -rrb- you can get even more space to play you game from memory rather than the disk . all in all I be very satisfied with this purchase .
