Should I buy a 250 GB Xbox 360 Slim even though I already have the old one?

I have the 20 GB launch 360 which is very loud when kept in a moderately closed off space, and I've heard the new ones are quieter. Aside from the much needed hard drive space, is it worth buying a new one even though my launch 360 works just fine?

If it means a moderately silent Alan Wake or Halo 3 playthrough then yes I will be a very happy panda...

Then go for it, I have the 360 S 250GB, and it's great, it's very quiet when running a game from the HDD, not exactly whisper quiet like the advertising claims, but, I'd say it's at least 50-75% quieter, depending on what you're doing.

Id say defo get one! I bought one on launch day and sold my old 20gb,its way quiter,built in wireless is ace and its a much better build quality! Of course the 250gb comes in handy too!

If you only have the 20GB model, I say go for it. I was forced to upgrade a few months ago because my launch 360 finally broke, and I'm fairly satisfied.

HOWEVER, don't expect it to be whisper quiet. Because it's not. At all.

Same here,mines whisper quiet with installed games,the psu does make a slight hum though but its very slight!

I just got my Slim 2 days ago and I've noticed a big a difference in it. My last xbox was a Pro Model with the 20GB harddrive and it felt sluggish. It may have been the harddrive cause I had been using the same harddrive since Xbox first came out. But now that I got the Slim 250GB and transfered my stuff over, everything feels a lot smoother. And to me, its as quit as advertised. (NOTE: I do have a color wheel going bad in my TV that makes a little hum noisee that could be canceling out the Slim's fans....and my Surround sound.)
