You can buy the XBox 360 with or without the hard drive. You can even buy the xbox 360 hard drive separate if you want to upgrade your XBox 360 later on. If your hard drive fries, you don’t have to get an entire new XBox 360, you just buy a new hard drive.

The 20GB xbox hard drive is a must have if you own an Xbox 360. Besides saving a ton of music on it, you need it to save your games you play. You also need the hard drive if you want to play your old xbox games (along with having internet connection to download the emulator for the old games). Besides that, when you download Xbox live arcade games (some are just awesome and there are more great games being added) you need the hard drive to store it on.
The 20 GB xbox 360 harddrive is actually 13.4 GB. For some reason, MS has 7 GBs reserved on the HDD. 13 GB isn’t very much when you consider game demos and movies and music and other goodies average about .5 GB to 1GB in size. If you’re going to be downloading patches and add-ons for your games, as well as demos, that 13GB of storage is going to fill up sooner than you think. If you are serious about gaming and hording downloaded content you will definitely want to look into the larger sized hard drive for the Xbox 360, like 60GB or 120 GB Xbox harddrive.
