There was once a time with the 120GB hard drive was the biggest available storage solution for the Xbox 360. Now, with the recent launch of the 250GB hard drive, Microsoft is doing away with both the 120GB hard drive and the memory cards that no one uses anymore (did they ever?). News comes to us from Major Nelson who has told Joystiq that excess stock of the memory cards and 120GB hard drives are being sold to make way for the 250GB hard drive.

Let’s hope they come down with the price of the 250GB hard drive sooner rather than later.

In case you didn’t want to shell out the ridiculous amount of money Microsoft is trying to charge for an upgraded Xbox 360 harddrive, Datel has given you a nice alternative.

Pictured above is Datel’s MAX Memory card for the Xbox 360 that allows users to expand the 2GB or 4GB capacity via its microSD/SDHC slot. Are these cards a hacker’s dream come true? I mean you can fit an entire Xbox 360 game on an SD card now a days.

Either or, these cards will start at around $40 when they hit shelves at an undisclosed date.
