Xbox 360 USB Storage official, lands April 6

We’ve heard about it before. Leaks, you know how they are; unofficial, basically. However, today, Microsoft has officially announced that USB Storage support is coming to the Xbox 360, and when? April 6.

The USB Storage support will allow gamers to save their gamer profiles, game saves, demos, Xbox LIVE Arcade titles and more to a USB flash drive – with a limit of only 16GB per drive.

You may only have two drives connected at once, allowing for up to 32GB of simultaneous storage. Once you connect your drive, you’ll have to configure it from the System Settings menu.

It happens April 6. Throw out those damn memory cards.
