As 'The Taken King' Eats Hard Drive Space, Activision Offers A Free Solution

If you needed a sign of the times that it’s probably best we all migrate future software to new-gen consoles only, this might be it.
Destiny’s The Taken King expansion is available only as a digital download, and it requires so much hard drive space, it can’t even fit on certain models of last generation PS3s and Xbox 360s.
The expansion will take up 10GB on Xbox 360 when all is said and done, and on PS3, though it’s also 10GB in the end, it requires 20GB free while it’s being installed. Needless to say for early model
PS3s and 360s with ~20GB hard drives, that’s either extremely difficult to manage, or in some cases, downright impossible.
So, what to do? Obviously a hard drive upgrade is a good option if you’re still sticking with a console that old, but that can be an unwanted expense.
But don’t worry, it seems Activision has you covered. Recognizing this is a pretty unique problem (most DLC packs are not this large, plus a lot of other Destiny content is also probably installed on the drive), they’ve come up with a solution for those with the tiniest of hard drives.
From their official support page :
“If you are validated as an existing and active Destiny player on one of the 20GB consoles as of September 15, 2015, and you submit your validation requirements to us no later than December 31, 2015,
we will assist you in finding the right
solution for your console’s storage
space.”
The “right solution,” according to some who have gone through with this process , is that Activision will actually send you a free 32 GB memory stick so you can store The Taken King on it externally.
