New Hard Disk Required?

Hi, I've got 2 X-Boxes in my house. 1 is mine, a 120GB "Elite" console. The other is my flatemate's, a disk-less white "Arcade". I want to trade-in mine, and get the new "slim", but, I've got to trade in the 120GB disk as well; which we both currently share. (User profiles, downloads, etc, on the same disk.) My question…

Hi,

I've got 2 X-Boxes in my house.

1 is mine, a 120GB "Elite" console.

The other is my flatemate's, a disk-less white "Arcade".

I want to trade-in mine, and get the new "slim", but, I've got to trade in the 120GB disk as well; which we both currently share. (User profiles, downloads, etc, on the same disk.)

My question is, does my flatmate need to now go and buy himself a 120GB disk to replace the one I'm selling; or will a USB flash drive do the job?

Thanks!

for 100% functionality, he'd need a hard drive, flash drive isn't the same, and certain aspects of games won't work without a hard drive. you'd pick up a 20gb hard drive for about twenty euro second hand on adverts.ie, more then enough for profiles/game saves/dlc.
