If you're not buying Microsoft's
excuses for why their 120GB hard drive costs $179, you don't have to buy the drive either. A mysterious hacker called "TheSpecialist" has released a new version of his program
HDDHackr, which now allows you to make your own 120GB drive for the Xbox 360. It's not perfect -- you can only use a
Western Digital SATA drive and you need a certain file from an official Microsoft drive. But with some time, effort, and around $80 for the drive, you'll get to keep about $100 of your hard-earned money in your nacho-cheese-stained paws. (With a little more work, you can even install the drive
internally.)
