It looks like Microsoft has decided to return some of its record-breaking profits back to the consumer in the form of a free Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Kit for Elite owners — although some will look at this gesture as less of a gift (being that it could have just been included in the box with all Elites) and more of a hassle to get a one-time-use product that already comes bundled with the standalone 120GB drive. Interested parties can grab the necessary form by following the Read link, but you’ll need the serial numbers of both 360s to qualify, so if you were just looking for a free cable to tie up your pets or friends, you’re out of luck.

Xbox 360 sends HDD data to 360 Elite via transfer cable?

If you’ve been wondering how you’ll get that stash of game demo downloads, HD movies and ripped music from your clunky ol’ white 360 over to the Elite’s 120GB drive, the rumor mill has the answer: a cable. Crazy, we know. The word of an Ars Technica tipster is that Microsoft will be including some sort of transfer cable with its Elite units and standalone 120GB drives, so it should be no problem to scoot the data over no matter which one you buy. After all, you didn’t think Microsoft would pass up a chance to get that 2nd Xbox dollar from its most loyal of followers, did you?
