- Datel has announced an Xbox 360 storage solution called XSATA which offers users a way to transfer files between the next-generation console and the PC, effectively utilizing the PC's hard drive as a secondary storage medium. The device requires the use of file management software such as Xplorer 360, and is a plug-and-play peripheral that sits between the Xbox 360's hard drive and the console itself. Data downloaded from the console are treated as files by the PC, and as such can be emailed to other users who could potentially upload the data to be used on their Xbox 360, provided that data is not tied to the originator's Xbox Live Account or Gamertag.

I am rather pleased about this, although I just hope it does not cost some rediculous amount. The damn 360 should have been able to do this from the beginning if you ask me. All it needed was the software to handle it, so maybe we will see it as an update in the future. Wonder what this thing will cost.
