i dont want to have to start my games again (like when you sign up to live), and similarly i dont want to have to shell out MORE cash for a memory unit or some sort of connection device.

I can't see ever needing more than 20gb- especially since MS will probably charge $120 for this 100GB version, 'cause M$ along with retail stores love to overprice hard drives for some reason...
what's wrong with you, look at the prices of the other memory units for the size/price ratio. Its going to be at LEAST 150.

That allows the 360 to stay at the same prices for a while longer, but give you more for your money.

Why would it be 100GB? Why not standard 120? or 160.....I dont get it.
I thought 100GB and 120GB is standard for a 2.5inch drive, my lappy has 120GB and my
archos mp3 player has 100GB.

That was actually my first thought too. Poor Photoshopping.
The chances are it is a Photoshop produced picture but photoshopped by M$ themselves. The drive probably hasn't actually been manufactured yet so this is just to give people an idea of what it'll look like. Its much easier/cheaper to draw a picture or edit a photo than it is to build and photograph an actual prototype.
Why wouldn't M$ produce a bigger drive?. If people are willing to buy it and want them then there's no reason not to.

If this is real they must have another use for it. I don't see anyone needing more than 20 gigs unless they want to keep all the demos and all the content from the marketplace. There must be another purpose for it but only time will tell.
How bout the DirecTV blade that we are still waiting , maybe it will add DVR functionality

I don't believe it simply because of the fact that MS wouldn't release/announce a new product in Korea first. Every product MS has ever made has debuted in the US... why start with an X360 drive? The install base in Korea must pale in comparison to the US.
A completely blue xbox comes to mind....... never released in the US as I remember.

Regarding larger hard drives, Peter Moore said the following, "it's something we're looking at"....
Also, I do remember OXM's Rumor Mole saying that he's hearing hints of an HDMI enabled, 250 gig HDD, internal HD-DVD drive, DVR function with DirectV content, black Xbox360 in the works....

Uh, great constructive response...thanks for contributing to the scene...
Anyways, obviously a larger hard drive is not for everyone, but there is definitely a good market for those who want to store more on their 360. Also, as mentioned earlier, we don't quite know what the future will hold as far as opportunities to fill up the hard drive. And MS makes much better gains on accessories, so it would be in their best interest to produce more drives. However, it will be interesting to see how they deal with the data on current drives for those that wish to upgrade.

I wish MS and Sony would have used 3.5" drives in their next gen consoles. I know 2.5" drives are quieter, use less energy, and produce less heat, but the current capacity max is 200GB and that will cost you $200+.

I think it is real, if you look closely at the picture (in all the Korean text) close to the bottom where they list HD-DVD, right underneath that you can see 256. That is for the 256mb memory card. Right underneath that though, you can see the number 10. It's cut off by the dudes head, but I think it says 100gb. Not only that, if you analyze the grain in the image, its uniform all over, even where 100GB is printed on the top of the HDD. Meaning if it was Photoshopped, it was done before the picture was taken...
You're right. I can read a little Korean, and PHONETICALLY (Koreans use a lot of English words, but written in their alphabet) it says:
10........ HA-DEU DEU-RA-I-BEU (hard drive)
The next line, I translated using Google:
CHUL-SI (come into market) GA-GYEOK (price): MI-JEONG (suspense) ...ha ha ha..."suspense" is the literal translation

Your 20gig is full becaus you want to keep every useless download from the market place. Delete all those dmos that you do not play and there is no need to keep video content that you can simply download to your PC.
Doesn't neccessarily have to be full because of demos and trailers.. I have only one thing for you to read.. "Final Fantasy XI Online for 360"... That beast alone takes up 5GB + space on its own.. So quit yapping about people having too much junk as FFXI is the biggest space hogger.. and well alot of people seem to own the 360 version of FFXI now..

they already sell adapters for transfering your stuff off your hard drive and putting it on your PC and back to the 360 when needed
