$179 for a 120 GB hard drive, what is this, 2002?
120GB 2.5" HDDs (ie laptop drives - what the 360 uses) retail for around $80-$120. This is in line when you consider the MS markup on what is essentially a specialized detachable drive.
I really like what Sony did with their hard drive. There's no reason the drive shouldn't be user replaceable. Of course that's just one more disincentive to buy the 60 GB PS3. Whoops.
:thumbsup: Sony
:thumbsdown: Microsoft
Who the hell knows what Nintendo is going to do with regard to hard drives.![]()
MS is worried about security. Especially since they are trying to entice studios into offering downloads. I've heard stories about content providers being upset with Sony about how hackable the PS3 turned out to be.
