    Where 2 Buy a Xbox 360 hard drive?

    Any ideas? Thread title states all.
    Bought a Core from Comet this morning, felt really lucky since many in front of me were turned down since they had preordered premiums and comet only had 5 cores to fulfil 11 preorders with (oo err) luckily i got the 4th one and picked it up with 2 games, Kong and PDZ for £289, quickly made a dart out of the door and for the nearest cab

    Anyway the major flaw ive noticed with me just being thankful this morning of actually owning the most sought after item for today in Britian, is that I dont have a memory card or hard disk, so i cant resurrect my xbox live account or even save - which is obvious
    Ive tried around, but cant seem to find any hope from Game or Gamestation, any bright sparks who've seen Hard disks in stock today when picking up their 360's?

    Hehe without memory card or HD you have to keep starting afresh, I noticed people buying core systems in PC world this morning and not realising they NEED to buy a HD or memory card to use the it properly.

    yeah i realised this already but for some reason went in with the intention of buying one of the two, got told no go with hd so i got swayed and forgot all about the memory card. Only when i got into Kong it said press white to save i thought oh crap!
    So any ideas?

    They seem to be akin to rocking horse poo at the moment. I have a spare one which is on ebay at the moment, and I've already had an enail from a guy offering me 100 quid for it. I just saw one go for 132 quid!
    This hot girl came over to myspace last night, she twittered my yahoo till I
    googled all over her facebook. Ask Jeeves...

    yeah i got a memory stick, i guess for the time being it'll have to do as there's no way i'll be paying excess of £100 for one!
    If i was, a seller is selling an 80gb hdd he claims to work with the 360, which if push came to shove i would investigate.
